That's basically what I get from it. I think they believe they're too good for an apartment

This is how I view 90% of the people on all those tiny house shows they do now. They are willing to slap a shed on top of a garden trailer and call it a home so they can back it up to a family member's land and call it home. I own, and maintenance is not terrible, but I do hate living in the country making lawn care a pain in the butt, due to how big the lot is.

Every year, I find something stupid that the previous owners planted and tear it down. Mostly it's excuses to make overall maintenance easier. Like wtf do I need a cherry tree for when the birds just eat all of them? But I was especially pissed when I had to pay $600 to have a giant silver maple cut down because its roots were growing into the septic tank and close to the house's foundation. Who does something that stupid? Good riddance, stupid fucking tree clogging my gutters twice a summer with those helicopters.

As a landscaper, it's unbelievable how stupid people are about planting trees. They see what amounts to a six foot long stick and slap it within two feet of something that roots would destroy not having even an ounce of vision and imagine what a baby tree will grow into. This was especially true with trees planted in that island of grass between a sidewalk and a curb. Great times if it was a tree with shallow roots.

To be fair I know guys in TX that have absolutely no marketable skills and go work in Alaska for a few months and come back with like $70k. Same with North Dakota. They say they sleep in a tent and get fed in a big tent and work outside all day in harsh conditions but then take 3 months off and make 6 figures overall. I don't audit their books so I don't how how full of shit they are but there's a lot of money to be made if you're willing to go work in the field nonstop away from the comforts of city life.

Make 6 figures, come back with 70k. So they spent 30k on liquor and hookers. That actually meshes with the stories I heard. Tell your friends to save on hooker money and just start raping. It's like an occupy campout in those places. Girls who aren't sellin the pussy are getting it stolen from them.

I don't know what RV's cost but they have to be expensive especially since she said they're "making it for them"

About the same as a house if you're buying it new. You can get used ones in good shape for less than 10k though. So ... great investment. Also, see above. If she's going to a place like that with an RV, she's planning to sell her pussy.

Some people won't take that for an answer. That's why we have to invent chores to be done. I chop wood a lot. It was cold enough for a fire twice this winter, but I spent every other weekend splitting wood.

I dunno, my wife has an obsession with building a tiny home. IDK why. We have a fucking 2500sqft house. We don't need a fucking mobile shed.

But oh fucking well. I just bought some land within 30 minutes of the office, I guess she intends to put it there as a second home? I fucking wanted it as an investment property, but I guess I'm keeping it (paid cash, so fuck it? I can sell it later)

Maybe i can buy like, a buncha shipping containers and build a bunker or some shit...

Pretty soon you'll be able to 3D print your "tiny house" for less than 15,000.

A San Francisco startup 3D printed a whole house in 24 hours

In this sense you have finally found the one and only advantage a tiny home has over a mobile home... it's on a damn trailer you can easily hook up to your truck's standard hitch. Lay down some gravel for a drive, have a pole dropped with a power outlet, and if you don't want to deal with human waste, have a small septic system put in (this is pricey), and then just back it up when she wants to "live in the wild." If she starts talking about giving up the 2500 sq feet to live in it permanently, start looking up lawyers.

Bury her deep so animals won't disturb the gravesite and also make sure the area is hidden and you plant new grass or a tree.

does Lye break down bones? I thought it just did flesh. Whats the rate of decomposition?

just curious. I love this sciencey stuff.

It leaves some bone, but it wouldn't really look much like bones apparently.

How long does it take to dissolve a human body?

When the five- to eight-hour cycle is complete—that's three hours to destroy the body, plus a few more to heat and cool the solution—the liquefied remains are safe to pour down the drain. A perforated basket catches the solids that survive the process, including implanted medical devices and "bone shadows"—calcium phosphate that makes up about 70 percent of the mass of bones and teeth. The bony bits can be crushed into a fine white powder.

Wait, I...I mean they, have to heat and cool the solution? I....errr, they, were just wanting a quick bury and leave scenario.

Oh well, guess there's no real easy solutions these days. F
