this is probably a YGWYD but I have a router and a small UPS on a shelf high in my game room. Went to clean up cables and the shelf drops. I'm trying to see if the shelf came off the screws or what but the damn anchors pulled totally out of the drywall. I have a lot of plumbing behind the wall so didn't want to drill into studs so I used metal zipit anchors. Now I have a damn router / ups in my hand and the damn shelf pulls totally off the wall. And of course I'm home alone.

just after sunrise, a deranged woodpecker attacks some part of the house that isn't wood. by the sound, seems like it has to be a gutter support. it happened several times last year too. they just hit it for like 2 bursts then fly off.
last year, there were at least 3 of them, 2 small and 1 big, hanging around all summer, but they never came near the house when i was outside. they would land in the big maple that has taken over the front yard and nearly touches the porch, but wouldn't peck it.

Between this post and just yesterday walking, wife and I hear a woodpecker and am like “thank God the one trying to battle our gutters is gone for years, also shot it”

I have a bad juju feeling we have now summoned him back

I don't understand. If you drill into the studs, aren't you specifically avoiding the plumbing?

I sure do love my neighbor who has to use their leaf blower at 8am on a Sunday to blow the minuscule amount of leaves off their small front yard and driveway.

Had a neighbor pull that garbage with a lawn mower. Monday morning I put a push mower right at the edge of our 2 properties and wired the cut off handle closed and left it running for an hour or so while I got ready for work. When I turned it off I waited for them to look over and flipped them off. Never had a problem with them again.

People driving around with roof boxes color matched to their cars, WITH NOTHING IN THEM, because they think it looks cool. Fucking dickheads.
