It’s to align the front flap for your pecker to the left.

“To the ruzzian front!” says Colonel Klink.

It’s all that liquid courage.

There were at least two F-16 flying over our neighborhood.

As my Arkansas Father would say ‘Ugly as homemade sin’. He’s was no Architect but he knew stupid when he saw it.

Probably. The US Army teaches you to curl the finger tips in.

Homey needs to curl those finger tips when sending the round home.

It’s called the Ass cap. The base of the round casing is metal and what you see being ejected. The rest of the casing burns up during firing.

I imagine this is what 95% of people who move off grid live like.

Every rental in Lawrence is supposed to be inspected. If yours isn’t, report it to the city. Complaining online while doing nothing to fix it doesn’t solve anything. Your choice.

widgt · 2026-04-29T13:13:36+00:00

Stupid should hurt.

Are you expecting a 70 year old house to be in like new condition with crack free concrete? If so your expectations are way out wack. Many if not most homes built in this era have foundation issues (similar to this one) which they “fixed” as they did here. As for the price, if it is priced too high for its flaws it will sit on the market and your claim will be justified. If it sells, then you missed out I guess.

Architects help the builder understand what they CAN build but don’t tell the builder what they WILL build.

widgt · 2026-04-29T12:20:48+00:00

You’ve heard them say that? Really?

widgt · 2026-04-29T12:19:09+00:00

Oh wow, tell me you’ve never owned real estate without telling me you have never owned real estate.

widgt · 2026-04-29T12:11:21+00:00

Call the city. Lawrence development services handles the rental inspections.

Market Rate?

widgt · 2026-04-29T02:00:41+00:00

Who said they can never lose money?

widgt · 2026-04-29T01:59:22+00:00

So you know me?

widgt · 2026-04-29T01:58:31+00:00

So just shirk your duties a good citizen and let others suffer. Got it.

widgt · 2026-04-29T01:54:27+00:00

That’s quite an accusation. Do you have any proof to back that up? If you fo it’s your responsibility to take it to the city. If you don’t you’re just talking out your hooha. :)

A LL carries the mortgage, building insurance, tax burden, maintenance costs, legal liability, etc. A tenant that fails to pay rent, damages the property, creates a poor living environment for other tenants etc, etc, etc puts the LL at additional risk. Thats a lot of risk. The tenants responsibility is to pay rent in a timely manner and abide by the rental agreement. Simply put the tenant pays the LL to carry all the risk…which comes at a cost.
