Whelp, was putting the "Final" nail in some moulding in my guest bath, I textured it pretty well myself, brought in the flooring and did everything pretty good!

Sent this to my wife today as an update pic:

Then about 2 hours ago, putting in some decent looking moulding, checked ahead of time where studs were, final nail before I am done with that part and I can then mask off, putty the finishing nails and prime and paint it tomorrow...

I am hammering the last nail in, to a stud. I checked it...used the stud finder and everything!

grab the peen for the dimple nails and give it one last hit to get the nail slightly below the wood so I can do the above...then I hear, "TSSHHHHHHHHHHH"

No...no fucking way, I just laughed, I didn't graze shit, I full on center-massed a fucking 3/4th's hot water line that goes into foundation. How far up? oh 5/8ths an inch above slab.

to say I'm done with this bathroom is an understatement...

EDIT:

Yes, I know my pipes are shit, it's been discussed.
I have been in some projects that just broke me. The kind of shit you describe, where you feel like you are in a fight. You finally got the mother fucker on the ropes, and he throws a wild hay-maker that you that catches you right in the temple. Hole in a waterline 5/8 inch above the concrete is a real bitch.

Good job regardless bro. Keep fighting the good fight.

Sandpaper toilet seats are for pussies.

What are you talking about? That shaves, exfoliates AND wipes at once. Triple action TP.

I've got to ask, why the hell would you choose to texture your walls and/or ceiling? That shit is going to age badly, is not possible to patch and make look right if ever anything happens, and it's a pain in the ass to paint?

I have never understood why anyone would do this. Can you tell me your thought process?

I would like to meet the person who decided textured walls are a good idea. Then I'd like to slap that person.

My reason? Because I have never done drywall before and I wanted to hide all the imperfections that I made.

I guess I will be getting first hand experience in patching texture since I have to fix my water fuckup.

I wish you lots of luck, patching textured walls/ceilings sucks the balls of a goat.
