    You"re retarded. The guy"s not knocking holes in your fucking walls to check on the gauge of wire used in your basement. He"s not pulling up your fucking carpet to see if the floor structure is damaged. He"s checking for leaks under your sink and seeing if your fucking light switches work. Do...

    Well, not really. Tim Taylor was incompetent. Most of the people you have actually doing the work around your house (including the people who built it) are not exactly the sharpest tools in the shed, that"s why they"re doing labor for a living in the first place. It used to be that you had to go...

    Alot of that shit is obvious. Code violations should stick out like a sore thumb, since building permits are required for pretty much everything you do on your house. If it"s not done properly, it probably looks like shit. Drainage and grade are hand in hand. Wet basement? Hey, it"s not draining...

    Meh, I walked around with my inspector and determined it is 100% bullshit. These guys aren"t gonna find anything that you can"t find with a checklist and an hour or 2. It seriously is as easy as "Turn on water. Hot water come out? Y/N Drain leaking? Y/N Light switch work? Y/N" If you...

    You don"t really have a recourse anyway, so it"s not a big deal. You know what you"re buying, and as soon as they hand you the keys, it"s your fucking problem from then on out anyway. What are you gonna do, back out because you need a couple hundred in repairs somewhere? No, of course not. So...

    No, YOU"LL be packing the moving van. I don"t envy you. I moved everything in my house myself, 100% except for the bed. Everything else, I hauled down 3 flights of stairs, and into my pickup, and then over to the new house and then either up or downstairs as necessary (split entry). Buy...

    Truth fucking hurts, doesn"t it? You"re absolutely no better than any of the guys you hire who feel they don"t need to come in to work except when they want to. Go ahead and justify it. Try. I fucking dare you.

    Hey, I"m not talking about politics. I"m talking about tax evasion. You"re the one that brought up politics. I think it"s fairly obvious that what you"re doing is unethical at best, and illegal at worst. That doesn"t have fuck all to do with politics, but nice try. And you wonder why...

    It has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with companies shirking their responsibilities to society. Don"t be like Lyenae, bro. You can"t get to the job without roads.

    I said it"s possible. It is however, not likely. And yes, you can transmit the disease through vaginal sex.

    Yeah, like Eomer said, there"s not a fluid exchange occurring F -> M at any point in heterosexual sex. It"s a myth that AIDS can happen to anyone. It generally doesn"t. Straight men with no intravenous drug use and no random sauna encounters don"t get AIDS. Is it possible? Sure, I suppose if...

    Straight guys don"t get AIDS from heterosexual sex, so you don"t need to sweat it. Also, if they"re being tested monthly and using condoms every time (like the industry does) then what are you really worried about? If you"re the kind of guy that fucks whores, why is this particular point...

    Well, a good chunk of it is selfishness, without a negative connotation to the word. Kids impede upon your life. You can"t do shit you could before you have kids.

    The thing is that if you do that, it"s gotta be believable. There are many ways to say that phrase, but not all of them are going to yield the same results. I don"t think Eomer is a guy that could pull it off.

    For the bay area, that sounds pretty fucking reasonable. My home is 5/3, 2500 sq ft, .85 acre on a pond and it sold for 310 in 2006. We bought in "09 for 240 and still feel pretty good about it.

    It"s been that way since we bought our house almost 3 years ago. Anything that"s good gets snapped up right away, since no one wants to fuck with short sales/foreclosures after the first couple of times you"ve gotta deal with asshole banks and their bullshit requirements. Not to mention the...

    No, there"s a shitload of inventory, it"s just the wrong inventory.
