I dont mess with above ground pools or liners. Strictly in ground, gunite pools for me, sorry.

On this latest read through I enjoyed the Egwene chapters more than most of the Perrin chapters. Nynaeve gets better once her and Elayne separate. Faille during her captivity with the Shaido and Elayne gaining the Lion Throne were really the only two parts that I just couldnt stand.

Just finished a reread of the entire series. Still holds up and it truly felt like getting together with some old, dear friends that I havent seen in a long time. Even enjoyed the books everyone bitches about, for me it was the Elayne chapters that I least enjoyed, so I skimmed the shit out of...

I didnt say during a flood. I said all bets are off during a 100 year flood, ie houses floating away. I used pools popping out of the ground as an example of the power of water. Empty pools can pop out of the ground due to hydrostatic pressure if the water table gets too high. When I build em I...

Im sure they are, but if you get caught in a hundred year flood, all bets are off. Water dont fuck around, do a quick search for pools popping out of the ground.

You've never heard of pier and beam foundations?

A lot of houses built on steep terrain next to rivers like the Guadalupe or there in Ruidoso arent going to be built on a standard, poured concrete foundation.

Turned PC Gamepass on to check out the new Monster Train and was pleasantly surprised to find out Expedition 33 was there as well. Expedition 33 really is a masterpiece but I find myself firing up another round of Monster Train more often than not when I have a couple hours to play something.

Shroom guys are fun. Used the duplicate any card Pyre, get the unit that resolves a FunGuy at the end of every turn and try to put a couple of those on the first couple floors and you can get some huge shrooms built up pretty quick. Got lucky with a Jack in the Box and shoved two of those guys...

It's even worse when you are building something for that type of person in their backyard. Also everyone now has security cams straight to their phones so they can eye fuck everything all day long even if they aren't home.

Red River. They're building/expanding I-35 from Gainseville to OK and the I-beams they have up are completely covered with debris and giant logs. Pretty impressive that it help up so well right in the middle of construction.

If you do feel the need to ask questions or have concerns but dont want to be a dick, take pics and PM me or ask in this thread, always happy to help FOH bros.

Second guessing everything that happens before its even a finished product. Its a process, wait until that part is completely finished and the guys are out of the yard before sending 8 pics asking why are they doing this? You hired them to do a job, let them do that job. Mistakes happen and if...

I took a few years off to go try to be a biologist, realized it paid for shit and had too much politics so returned to Texas and made some calls to people I knew in the business. Got hired to manage all the weekly service routes for a large builder in DFW. Did that for a few years and had a...

It's definitely an ARPG loot/crafting simulator. Which I like. I waste a lot of time min/maxxing my gear that would be better spent grinding monos but that's one of the things I like most about the genre. Huge reason I quit POE2 so early this go around as well.
