Showers open your pores and let it in further

>>1035805

>>1036699
Only hot showers. Cold showers close your pores.

Well, i built a remote controlled push mower. My dumb ass in my haste welded 2 sharp af metal plates to the front to mount the front wheels. Turned on mower while 1. Standing in front like a jackass. And 2. My fat assed belly bumped the transmitter lever. "Warp 9 engage." Mower poped a wheelie, hit my knee on one leg and scar on my shin on the other while wtfing away from it. Manage to get it to almost stop and fumble the reciever.

Pretty much all the interesting shit i got. If i live through my first ev car build i'll post the horrors...

Cold shower scrub with butter? I think? Somehow pulls it out.

I have taked a shop vac to my entire body.

Nothing works...

>>1036752
My bad. Was backwards. I tried the wifes face peel mask on my arms. 0 results.

Honestly, I find that the only way to get something done right is to diy. Over the years I have hired many, many people to work on my house. 99% of them left it in worse condition then when they started.

If you know the "grade", you can apparently match it to an equal grade of pumice stone. Takes the fibers right out, or so I've been told.

I was actually thinking about this yesterday when I was sitting on my deck.

I've got one of my father. He's cheap and after watching home improvement shows he thinks he knows it all.

>bathroom above kitchen
>leaking kitchen roof
>he rips down all the drywall
>fix brass pipe
>staples plastic sheet up
>puts up drywall
>a week later
>bang!
>drywall and water everywhere

Tl;dr my father unintentionally made a water Baloon in the kitchen

>>1035805
nooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Lost. hard. LOL

same happened in my house, after we payed some professionals 4000 $ to fit a 2000$ ventilation system to take away hot air from the attic.

I wore a metal watch while working with some small lead acid batteries. You can guess what happened.

Luckily, only a tiny spot touched my wrist and I only have a small scar. Got a nice whiff of burning flesh when it happened though...

Got one that a friends told me once.

>Friend has a friend who works as a mechanic.
>Is very careful while removing battery from vehicles.
>Knows that touching the terminals is safe with hands.
>Always covers one terminal with hand so that the tool hes using to tighten the other doesn't short them out.
> Gets married.
>Now has a gold ring on one hand, doesn't remember it.
>Time to remove another battery.
>Proceed to cover one terminal with left hand.
>Wrench on one terminal, tightens it.
>Other end of wrench hits ring.
>ZAP
>Small round blobs of gold everywhere.
>Nice ring shaped scar around finger.
>Married forever.

Now he doesn't wear his new ring at all while at work.

Had a buddy get hot slag on his wedding ring while welding

>>1038963
Fingering a slag while welding is hazardous.

IWA Mid South Queen of the Deathmatch tournament 2015.
I forget the name of those particular bitches because I've never heard of them before and I'm into this shit.

Not really diy, but I was making a pizza the other week, 475F oven, and touched the side as I was taking the pizza out. So how it just destroyed the first layer, slightly blistered, and the skin just fell off by the end of the night. It wasn't a bad burn either, it only went down 1-2 more layers and was easy to take care of (no infection with just peroxide and and antibiotic cream, no bandage).

A friend of mine fixes vacuums, and once put a drill bit through his hand (was drilling something and it slipped into his palm). He didn't have insurance so he just wrapper it in paper towels and tape and walked it off.

Context? She's bloodied in a lot of places that don't make sense.

Watching this is also like watching some get submerged in honey, then rolled in a field of mowed grass.

>>1038699
Did he scrape up the old and make the new one from it?

Sabrina Sixx and Kathy Owens.
I'm assuming that everything is staged, because this is pretty fucked up.

>>1039297
lol'ed :^)

My dad was working on heating coils on our dryer since they worked intermittently.

he left the thing PLUGGED IN (240V) while he was working, and the tip of his screwdriver touched one of the coils which caused the entire house's lights to dim and tripped a few circus.

The screwdriver tip was completely melted off

>>1039370
Doesn't your house have like... fuses ?

>>1038963
Hey, that's no way to talk about his wife

>>1039356
Yeah it's fucked up.

I like wrestling as much as the next guy but I don't get the appeal of these travelling recheck shows where the "fight" is just one guy/girl being completely passive and just getting brutally whaled on. That crosses the line from sports entertainment to bdsm/snuff as far as I'm concerned. Not sure who I'd shoot first, the performing freaks or the degenerates who bring their kids to watch this "entertainment".

>>1039424
Yeah, you heard the child too, didn't you? Somewhat after the fiberglass insulation.

>>1039405
>Doesn't your house have like... fuses ?

Can't you read? it's a >>1039370
>circus.

>>1039715
circus?
how do you keep the elephants from shitting all over?
don't the clowns get annoying?

but the real question is where do you keep your lions?

>>1039763
They Edisoned the elephant, the clowns are in place of a fuse board, useless but the screams are pleasing
The lions.... Concrete wizard tower?

>>1036991
I must know more.
Had to do more than one roof with this shot in my lifetime.
Still have flashbacks whenever im near it.
Please, noble anon, enlighten us all.

>>1036980
>99% of them left it in worse condition then when they started.
We hired a contractor to dig a sump pit/drain trench in the basement.
One of the fuckers shit on the walls.
No, I didn't mis-type. Asshole used the can, and must have had explosive diarrhea.
Shit all over the bowl, bottom of the seat, top of the seat, and shit sprayed all over the wall.
Business owner just laughed at us.
I should have broke his jaw, but didn't.
