We were wowed over by the finishing in this house. Marble walls, marble floors, modern aesthetics, etc. When we did the home inspection, the guy gave it a good bill of health but the more i live here, the more little shit things i find that annoying the fuck out of me.

I wish i bought a chinese builder home instead. Like seriously. i honestly think they do way better work. Only problem is their aesthetic choices are questionable half the time and we didnt want to build on our existing lot (time, cost overrun, smaller lot, feng shui reasons, etc)


Well i sent Tiny on a mission to find a new dryer vent hose. She came back with this and due to her small size, i was able to get her to hook it on and keep an eye on it while I push the dryer in straight. We used a metal pole to kinda align it while I pushed till we couldnt and then hopefully due to its already compressed shape, its straight. Testing now to see if all is well.
It’s crazy that this day and age there isn’t a better way to hook up washer/dryer connections lol..

When we were building townhomes we installed these stackers that BARELY fit into the laundry closet, you’d have to tilt them to get them in. The installer this 100lb older philipeano guy was the installer the supplier used. One time he asked me to stick around because his helper wasn’t there. This fucking guy had me tilt the washer and dryer outward so he could climb up and slither over the top of the unit, make the connection then proceed to scale the backside and give me direction as to when to tilt it so he could slide back out :
