The Dysfunctional-Palooza Obnoxious Masshole BS Thread

I saved a ton of money by buying cod at the grocery store for ~$4/lb.

What's your cost for cod - including boat, licenses, fuel, tackle, bait, processing, etc.? $4,136.45?

 

[bluemoose]

Let the first one that brews to save money cast the first stone, amiright, Pauly?

On a 'per pound' basis? WAY more than that. Way, way more.

Anybody know if straight up rock salt will harm roof shingles? I am developing terrible ice dams, to the point where the melt is flowing down over the front door and freezing it shut. The snow buildup got ahead of me and now I need to get rid of that ice. I've shoveled off the snow but was too late. Will I screw up my roof shingles by throwing rock salt on them?

 

[TheDudeLebowski]

I don't think you want to use rock salt. My next door neighbor just threw up a couple of socks of calcium chloride up on the roof a couple of years ago. I didn't see any issues later on.What you really want to do is place the socks/pantyhose on the edge of the dam vertically. Cause a channel for the water to drain. I'm no expert but Mazz explained it also yesterday on the radio Good luck Paulie.

This. And hammer some of it off creating a channel for the water to drain

Or climb up on the roof with a case of beer and a full bladder.

The girl at the cvs said "Somebody is planning a heck of a valentines party!" when I handed her the half dozen pair of nylon stockings.

I'm just grateful she reminded me it's VD.

 

[bob1852]

Just toss a couple electric blankets up there. Use lots of indoor only extension cords.

Or hell, fire up the pizza oven. It'll melt the whole neighborhood.

 

[paulthenurse]

It would take till tomorrow to get to it.

 

[bluemoose]

Calcium chloride works like a charm. Create the channel for a drain, then sprinkle it all over the ice. It'll be gone by April.

Since you're at the drug store anyway, you should probably pick up some penicillin.

It's gettin' crazy all up in here...

 

[homebeerbrewer]

I just brewed five gallons of Blizzard IPA.

First time in a long time brewing inside on the stove with extract. House smells delicious, and I had fun. Only thing that can make this day better is five gallons of beer.

 

[paulthenurse]

We got around 22 inches but the drifts were brutal. I had over 8 feet on my deck. Took my two hours just to clear off the deck. Myself and the guy next door worked as a team and cleared out 8 houses. Thank goodness it was dry, cold snow and relatively easy to move. I was so freaking cold and tired when I finished I went from the shower to bed for a nice long nap. Guess kegging the stout and the Double D has to wait till tomorrow.

 

[TheDudeLebowski]

Paulie. I was out on the Annisquam. Where were you?

[ComcastWineRookie]

i have them all over the roof, ice dams are killing me this year. water all over the house getting inside.

Fill the panty hose with ice melt and lay them down top to bottom so when the ice melts it can run down the roof. Otherwise it builds up and backs up causing all number of problems.
