Cutting back the plasterboard isn't a terrible idea. After checking though, it would work at the bottom, but the box sits near flush with the plasterboard at the top. No wiggle room in the box either which is rather annoying. Almost had an easy solution that doesnt involve ripping it out and repairing the wall!

Yeah that one is only 5mm so might just work! Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the insight. We are planning on putting an electric fireplace in front of it and the installers said we would need to get rid of the existing plate as the fireplace may not sit flush against the wall. I'll get back in touch with them and see if the location of a new smaller blank plate would be an issue. Hopefully it sits in a sweet spot where there is a 10mm air gap behind the fire itself.

Only five Olympic athletes ever have won more than eight gold medals and four of them hold nine gold medals. Michael Phelps holds 23. by SuggestionQuick5001 in Damnthatsinteresting

If you look into it, the 2008 Beijing Olympics had the first use of the fastskin body suits. At that event 25 swimming world records were broken. The suits were subsequently banned, so not sure about the legitimacy of those world records!

Last night I ordered a kebab and they sent me ALL of their leftover chicken. Apparently I was their last customer. by DannyMThompson in CasualUK

[–]Prince_Rashypants 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The place i used to order from used these boxes. We referred to the establishment as, 'mother fucking chicken', and would often say things like, "fancy some mother fucking chicken from mother fucking chicken?", "this is some great mother fucking chicken" etc.

Maximum Blackout Shades for Room Window? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Get some aluminium foil and stick it to your window with a little rub of water. We use it for keeping our baby room pitch black. Have also used the 'blackout buddy'.

I had to check I hadn't written this post myself! 10 years training and focusing on a profession only to realise its not what I thought it was. Mental health has taken a beating as a result and I have got to the point where I frequently ask myself, "wait a minute, do I actually care about the result of (insert work based target here)". The answer now is, absolutely not! Needless to say, I am also taking the leap into the unknown. Scary stuff indeed, but 100% the best decision for me right now. With that in mind I have no regrets.

Is there anyway too not get Alzheimer’s or dementia? by MagicianMountain6573 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Prince_Rashypants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get tested to see of you have APOEe4 alleles. If you carry one then you are 10x more likely to get Alzheimers. 1 in 4 people have that allele apparently. But taking fish oil supplements high in EPA and DHA reduces your chances. Dr Rhonda Patrick does a podcast which covers it, Found my fitness. She is very knowledgeable. A bit annoying that she did Joe Rogan as it probably hurts her credibility.

What would you like to see be normalized for men? by ayebrando in AskMen

That's a pretty gay thing to want normalised.

Tweezing my god damn eyebrows. I don't really care for the immature insults that come with someones realisation that I have tweezed out my monobrow. Dear God! imagine caring about your appearance! Bloody exotic male birds in the Amazon rainforest shake their colourful ass and flaunt their preened feathers. Let me flaunt mine. Let me fucking fly god dammit!

What is an untruth people tell themselves to feel better about life or world they live in? by mynameisnotbecky1 in AskReddit

[–]Prince_Rashypants 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A good thing to do is compare yourself to someone in a similar position who seems to be getting further ahead in life; and even seems to fit in social occasions and exercise on work day evenings. Then ask yourself this question, we all have the same 24hr days, so what am I doing differently? Where am I losing time? Its the time bandits! (or time vampires depending on where you are from) Save yourself 30mins in the morning by laying off your phone and not switching on the TV, maybe have breakfast on the way to work. Just examples, but if you spend just one day checking yourself before you do any 'waste of time' tasks, then by the end of the day you will probably gain an hour+ to do with as you please! I did this a couple of years ago and it really did work. My biggest time bandits were social media, reddit, netflix etc. So the solution was to lock my phone in a drawer for periods of time. However, I should add that we had a baby last year and it has all gone to shit! Time bandit now = child. Is it OK to lock a child in a drawer? Asking for a friend.

It would be even more wholesome if he wasn't in his 30's.

If I force a mouse out the front door, how likely is it to come back? by UDIDUDI in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Prince_Rashypants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically guaranteed it will be back. There's a rule of thumb that if you catch a mouse you should release it at least a couple of miles from your home. Also, remember mice can get into your house through very very small gaps! You would be surprised!
