i have no idea how that thing wasn't built in a week for the amount of time he spends on it, but i'm getting really tired of the constant loud noises every day.

One of my neighbors got some Mexicans to put their shed up a couple weekends ago. By the time I was done mowing the lawn, they were almost done. And this was the weekend when it was 183 degrees. They probably got stiffed on a tip too.

there's a huge difference in buying a knock-down shed and assembling it and stick building one. if you've never tried to build something from scratch, trust me that it's a LOT harder than it looks.

everyone stop whistling in public please

It shouldn't take longer than three days.

how about rapping or singing along to headphones? a friend of mine thinks it's refreshing to see people expressing their love of music. I think 95% of them are just narcissists

I often find myself singing along at the Hess in the mornings when I'm grabbing my Dunkin. In my defense, they are usually playing classic rock and/or 80's. How does one stay silent when Men at Work are asking if you come from a land down under?

hey, I hear that! but there's singing to yourself and then there's singing to make sure everyone around you knows you're singing

i guess what i'm usually doing is some form of lip synching

i do air guitar while walking around

same, also drums occasionally. if i could change anything about myself it'd be this stuff

I just want everyone to be quiet in common areas like trains, buses, crowded streets, & busy offices. No whistling, no Jesus talk, no rapping, no loud conversations. Just be quiet.

you live in a weird area considering all that

the MTA is surprisingly quiet - especially the trains that go underground.

This is a huge shed. I'd say its 10 ft tall. Hard to tell the lxw, though.

He started at 630 today. :/

Got a 2:30 disc golf tee time and I still haven't gone to bed. Gonna be a rough early afternoon.

kinda crazy how much mileage Wil Wheaton has gotten out of admitting he plays video games and stuff

also who is Wesley Crusher's dad?

If he's framing it out himself, and he's one guy, and he's not a professional, it could easily take a lot longer than that, particularly if he gives a shit. I mean, it took me two days to slap some plywood and cover it with tar paper on top of my shed, and I didn't give a shit about anything that keeping the inside of the shed sort of dry.

Jack Crusher.

no shit

tell me more

He was Picard's BFF...he died somehow, I don't think it's ever explained really, but Picard had to break the news to Beverly and young Wesley.
