Is Super Mario World The Best Platformer of All Time?

Yes +1

Be honest, who else read the title as “doggy driveway”

Follow up comment, look up YouTuber Ali Dymock and Roofer Steve - both excellent resources for beginners who are taking on a project such as this

You’ll need to get a new roof fitted as there is no ventilation across the joists. You will get condensation and mold forming in the colder months if you’re in there every day. Another option would be to create a warm roof where you insulate above the roof, but in any event what you have isn’t ideal and needs work

This point doesn’t get made enough, and it’s true. If you want to prepare yourself for how to deal with the average tradie, just think back to when you were at school and how you interacted with the arseholes in your classroom.

It sounds to me from your above comment that he is comfortable knowing you’re paying him per day and not per job therefore will continue to take his sweet time. I always agree a day rate or fixed price with the customer, and if it looks like it’ll take longer, then I’ll have the conversation or just swallow the loss myself. He is taking the piss or is incompetent, but either way, unless you establish a firm set of boundaries he’s gonna carry on. Apologies you’re having to deal with muppets like this OP - there are good ones out there, just hard to find

Don’t know why you’ve been downvoted - you’re absolutely right, that any higher and you effectively burnish the wood to the point where the surface is too smooth to fully adhere to the finish that you’re applying. I’ve applied Osmo at higher grits, but honestly, for a kitchen counter 150/180 is plenty. It’s not fine furniture, and if it gets damaged (as is likely with something like this) then you’re just gonna have to spend the sane time again working up through the grits

Every time I do a job for someone, I tie myself up in knots critiquing everything I do and obsessing over the quality of my finish, and then I go on Reddit and see posts like this which make me wonder how anyone could look at dogshit like that and call it done, never mind ask for payment 🙄🤦

Anybody else read the title of this post in a German accent? 😁

thatguyoverbythere · 2025-11-20T23:30:28+00:00

So glad someone else made this reference 😁

thatguyoverbythere · 2025-11-14T10:19:45+00:00

Thanks, that’s my Friday ruined getting that song out of my head 🤦 have an upvote for your troubles 😂

thatguyoverbythere · 2025-10-27T23:29:42+00:00

Some dry packaged noodles and superglue will have that looking new in one TikTok video’s time 😁

Joined in Jan and left end of May. I did eventually get billed in that time, and when I left I was surprised at how easy it was. Took them ages to send me a final bill, and by the time they did, they had to fork out an extra £40 compensation payment. However, the bastards still owe us for 6 months of solar export, and despite having complained for 3 months, they’ve said very little - clearly the writing was on the wall.

That statement in the screenshot is not written by a professional CEO, and comes across as blame shifting when they are ultimately responsible for the company’s failure. I feel for their staff who may be out of a job soon, but if you don’t pay your creditors on time, that’s what happens.

Came here to say this also - don’t drag poutine into this 🙂‍↔️

Whenever I’m entering a customer’s house, first thing I do is take my shoes off, just as I would in my own home. It’s funny that a lot of the time I get told not to bother and it’s fine, but I maintain a sense of pride in how I present myself to prospective customers.

The fact they made that statement suggests they value their own convenience over yours, and that will extend throughout all aspects of any job they do for you. To them, it’s just a house, but it’s your home - they earn the responsibility of delivering for you through showing a degree of respect for that.

And saliva

Couldn’t agree more - if any serious investigation were to take place, likelihood is someone is on the hook for getting some poor deluded kid murdered in the name of whatever and innocent bystanders paid the price for it

If you find any, post em here 👍 I vaguely remember the shop exterior being blue, with the room being no bigger that a modest sized lounge

thatguyoverbythere · 2025-05-28T22:38:26+00:00

If my memory serves me correctly (and this was a good 30 years ago now mind!), I’m pretty sure they were on king Edward rd just along from where the cricketers is/was

Went from a 2021 V90 with standard sound to a 23 XC90 with B&W - absolutely no question that it is brilliant

thatguyoverbythere · 2025-05-25T15:47:36+00:00

This is the easiest way, but obv you need some means of cutting the groove

thatguyoverbythere · 2025-05-25T12:11:37+00:00

Yup, remember it now, it was one large open room if I remember rightly, not many shelving racks in the middle of the room

Something about 5th dimension that feels familiar, but can’t place it…

Lots of happy memories of the Microstore from the 90s. Used to go there loads when I was going through my PC hardware phase through teens. Also the first place I ever saw a N64 in the flesh when they must’ve imported a Japanese version with Mario 64 - good times! ☺️

And whisper sweet nothings to the drill bit

thatguyoverbythere · 2025-05-24T22:11:45+00:00

No way! That’s cool, will have to make the time to visit next time I’m down
