Totally get this now. I used to think those quick videos were helpful, but they leave out so much basic info. It really does build a shaky understanding.

Heard a contractor say skipping corner bead is the biggest rookie move in drywall. That thin edge of mud has zero strength, it's just waiting to get chipped. Makes you wonder how many other shortcuts are hiding behind a smooth paint job. Total false economy, costs way more to fix later.

Honestly, my autopay is on such a set-it-and-forget-it system I'd probably pay a bill for a house I don't even own.

Honestly, that retinol purge talk hits different. Tried a new sunscreen last summer that made my face look like a pizza for a solid month. Ngl, it was so bad I just told people I had a weird rash from gardening. Makes you realize how much we hide the ugly parts of trying new stuff.

Man, @joseph_roberts, I was all about the DIY savings too, but you're totally right about the time being the real win.
