cut the grass and put a little garden in the front and no one will notice the poor siding job
This is perfect for that zombie saga.
Two more payments and it’ll all be mine.
Let’s see “Tools Required”: Hammer – check, Nails – check, Tape Measure – check, Saw – Huh? Why?
Cutting siding at at 45 degree angle is complicated math and requires skill. But when you live in a shed by the railroad track…
The worker argues that he never got paid. The owner claims the worker didn’t finish by the agreed upon deadline. I really hate siding with anybody, but I am interested to see how everything will shake out.
I heard that everyone got shingles and decided to move on.
If they decided to move on then where are they shacking up?
Some other place, Down in the Boondocks? (When my answer FAILs this way, I am often tempted to turn to music that potentially no one can get out of their head. Bwhahaha…)
This shack could be in Denmark or Sweden. Definitely not Finland, because it’s obviously not Finnish…..ed.
This cozy cottage nestled in a pristine meadow with full electrical service is prepped for future expansion.
Thank you, O Spin Doctor of Real Estate. I think I saw this featured on one of those Sunday morning home shows.
One one around… A hut in the middle of nowhere…. No streets… No nothing.
- Someone is playing with explooooosives!!
Look closely, and see if there’s a small plaque anywhere that says, Home of the Unabomber.
Don’t cross hin or he will get rail mad.
In case no one else has ever seen this, I’ll provide a link, but my aunt had this game when she was little. You put on big thumbs and try to load little sticks of dynomite in through the chimney before the timer dings and the shack “blows up”/falls apart. Dynomite Shack! What will they think of next? (Well, there’s always Cranium, you say? Booorrriinnnggg…)

Hehehe. Dynamite! But Dyn-O-mite is Good Times, too…
Nice job painting the cardboard, Larry. I would never guess it wasn’t really brick.
It’s a brick…..house. It’s mighty mighty, just lettin it all hang out
Potemkin village: ur doin it wrong.
The big bad wolf apparently huffed and puffed but didn’t *quite* manage to blow the house down. Not for lack of trying though.
I wonder if there’s a full size Lego man inside.
I call funny business! This garden shed looks so new that it’s surely still under construction. The siding hasn’t been finished to the peak yet and at that time, as many folks do, he’ll cut the corners all at once with a circular saw. They do decking that way too. This just doesn’t qualify for a kludge.
on second look, I notice by the weeds that the last finishing touches were put off in favour of a couple more beers last summer and thus, I see it does qualify as kludge.
When you put siding onto a structure, you don’t put it on the side of the roof. or at least your not supposed to. Hence, the kludgeyness.
tons of people do, and even well respected people do. they just dont leave like that long. and who is to say he isnt going to cut the grass afterward? and do you have to cut the grass when siding a building? maybe there, I fixed it and people are trying just a little to hard to be funny?
We see these all the time in Missouri. Evidently some meth cook blew away part of his house, but he’s so far out in the country, nobody heard anything. He must’ve just put the fire out and boarded the remaining part of the shed back up.
Is that a railroad crossing sign off in the distance or a skull and crossbones? Either way, not a good omen.
This building was designed on an old Atari 8-bit computer with graphics mode.
My cousin Jimmy could finish that for real cheap
I thought his name was Jimmie.
If your family is big enough, you start running out of names, so you start altering spellings a bit and beginning the list again. That, or rhyming kicks in.
Here’s a contractor who refused to cut corners, no matter what the circumstances.
I don’t really understand What’s going on there, but something, somewhere is clearly wrong.
Saws are so last year.
This is the result of a hacksaw that is simply a blade mounted in a piece of scrap lumber.
How much you wanna bet it’s not a tool shed?
