I'm 5'5". Prior to getting married, back in my dating days I dated multiple girls in the 5'10"-6'1" range. Was never a problem for me. More often though I'd hear things indicating it's a big problem for a lot of women who couldn't handle a guy being shorter than them, sometimes to the point of...

One observation I feel compelled to make at this point. I find it entertaining that the people railing against her in this thread seem more triggered by someone calling @Vanessa "Her" than she is triggered by someone using "Him". It's like she's reversed the whip on that one. Maybe it's the...

Well one problem is that with other superhero movies you get the names, and the names seem to usually involve who they are. If you didn't know that this was a character and had been for a while it would seem like an ultra-low energy "give up" character name idea "Just take the name of the...

Yes... my Sawzall (Ryobi for me) was my best friend.... until this last project when I finally gave in and bought a Framing Nailer and air compressor. Now the Sawzall is my side piece.

I see you've seen me posting about my Garage rebuild in the Home Improvement thread. ;) Thank you!

Well.... Gamestop has, to a certain degree, been trying to diversify into other things valuable to geek culture. Most of the ones near my house seem to be more toys and crap than games. Plus they own ThinkGeek (which has it's own brick and mortar store, but only one I believe). I feel bad...

I'm going to go with he trains Maize to keep the demons in check so he can live topside most of the time and go back from time to time when things get out of hand.... Or they just pull some new angel (maybe the one they introduced this season) to be the new keeper of hell. ("Like beating up...

WHen you're in Austin for a trade show... and you can't tell which is more of a beat down: The panhandling homeless, or the tablet carrying beatniks trying to get you to sign up for email supporting their charity. Both of which seem to be in endless supply. damn hippies. Especially if...

Yeah, I heard that too. It think that AT&T/WB realize that they're about to have to do their own and see no purpose in having two. Question is if any of the original content will survive. Makes me weep for my beloved Doom Patrol.

Yeah... I think this is one and done... 'Swamp Thing' Canceled Less Than a Week After DC Universe Debut

Holy wall of text! We need @hodj here to quiet her up!

First, you guys have my deepest condolences.... @Mrs. Haus and I have lost a few pets since we've been married. 1) my dog Churla who I had when we got married - Died at 19 years old, asleep in her favorite spot. While I was half the world away (Israel) on a business trip. 2) her cat Pooh, who...

@Mrs. Haus was also wondering why the hell not a single one of those swamp dweller sounded like a proper cajun coonass....

Having redone two bathrooms in my house, I can tell you that if you're like me and you layer something over existing tile you'll end up pulling it all and replacing it. When you say you don't want to touch you toilet, reason? Pulling and replanting a toilet is pretty easy peasy for 90% of the...

After seeing how the Grand Tour covered this topic, I am becoming awkwardly aroused hoping this movie will live up....

I was under the impression that Rita suffered her accident in the 40's or 50's. Then Negative Man in the 60's, Jane in the 70's and Cliff in the 80's. I could be wrong though. This seems to be CLOSELY following how I remember the Grant Morrison Doom Patrol run went.

I don't think he got it there, I'm sure they'll flesh it out more. I did notice from the get go that all of them seemed to stop aging when they got "their powers". Maybe they're going to weave this around that trope of how comic book heroes never seem to age.

I swear I saw the actor who played Tywin Lannister in the new Godzilla flick....

First episode down and it was a solid. Character set up was OK. So far I cannot attest to if this Abby's tits are Adrienne Barbeaux level or not. That remains to be seen.

This isn't a Pit Bull thing. I had a wire terrier mix once that got pissed off enough at my ex (who was locking her in the bathroom while she , how shall we say, did things I would later kick her out for). She managed to claw and chew through a door, as well as rip up the tile in front of the...

Yeah, just got back from seeing this with @Mrs. Haus and I'll give it a solid 6.5 mostly on effects and such. I went in wanting to see Godzilla wreck shit, I saw Godzilla wreck shit. Mission accomplished. They're doing a decent job of some world building around the Kaiju, along with...

Yeah, the same way Luke Cage was "Unapologetically Black" this show is "Unapologetically British"

@Mrs. Haus and I watched the first episode tonight. Not bad, but I do fear they're going to try to explain every little detail that normally Gaiman and Pratchett would leave you to figure out. Main character casting seems pretty spot on so far.

I fear @Vanessa has been run off, or at least run from her AMA. And now we descend into furrydom (is this akin to serfdom?)

Yeah, that needs it. My current debate is painting the walls and rafter space or leaving it "au natural". At this point all day tomorrow will be painting, then coating the floor. heh

Yeah, Epoxy floor coating, or I'm debating these click in garage tiles as well. Epoxy I would need to do before shelving. Tiles I can do after shelving and just have run up to the shelves.

And another 48 hours of not needing to deal with work and stuff gets done... OSB internal sheathing.... And new garage door (still need to go get/install an opener, but I am being picky on that.) Tomorrow is shelving and storage, plus hopefully paint. (just a simple coat on the interior...

It was mixed in Julie's tickers today while I was driving around. The old Grey Wolf is my leader....

WHen the next replacement rotation for our hot water heater hits we're planning on going the tankless route because screw running out of hot water.

Whoever is doing media for this one managed to get a good one in. In my local market (Dallas) there is an all sports talk station. I listen to it religiously when I'm in my car. They have a thing called "The Ticker" which is three times an hour they give a quick blurb with sports scores...

@Mrs. Haus and I are with you here Xadion. Worst part is that we do love the show (when she was younger she worked in the corporate arm of Wally World for a while so it's exceedingly familiar) What gets me is that they've effectively used Jonah as a character to poke a good deal of fun at the...

Well, Doom Patrol has earned DC a "I'll assume it's good until I see it's Shit" standing on the Haus TV Threat Level meter.

Well, all those "little tables" the huts are all separate, and actually from a set for docks. Unsure what small things will live in the huts next. heh The walls, I will print more of as they will be running into a norsemen style encampment with that kind of walls around it.

Did you kill a giant when you were 10 and spend months suckling at it's wife's teet?
