Repairing drywall is a dirty, nasty, messy, shitty job that I hate more than rap music during a

cheap wine hangover.

But I do it cause I'm too damn cheap to hire a contractor.

1. Well, if we'd quit getting drunk and punching holes in the drywall,

then we wouldn't have that problem, would we?

[ohiosmith]

3. no, guess not!

2. You're going to have to re-do that.

It looks like shit.

[ohiosmith]

4. Looks fine. You been talking to my wife.

6. There's texture?

11. Not hard at all if you know a few tricks

skim coating to sponge dabbing to crumpled newspaper pressing to heavy nap paint roller; I've employed them all. Cottage cheese texture is accomplished by flinging diluted mud with an old school wallpaper brush, the trick is to know how much mud to load on the brush, and when to stop.

7. Doesn't look big enough...

...to hide a body in. Did you cut it up first?

[ohiosmith]

9. Damn! What the hell kind of question is that! This is the Lounge for Christ's sake.

Of course I did. You think I'm stupid?

8. Drywall work is emotionally satisfying. You put in some effort, you get a nice big result.

It's not like doing the laundry. You see results.

[ohiosmith]

10. I see the results when I do laundry. Especially in the underwear.

[dimbear]

13. The other side of the coin is, if you're like me, you do drywall once a year tops.

Laundry several times that.

14. It's a lot of fun if you've got enough vodka.

I'm not going to get into the results, but it does make it more fun.
