with car/home repair. I can change oil, or any mundane thing on a car(plugs/wires), it should be an easy thing, but almost always...the easy thing becomes an Odyssey of hardships, from bolts stripping, or outright breaking, or my tool breaking on me...anything that can go wrong, usually does. About 6 yrs ago I was installing a set of shelves in our living room, easy peasy job I thought....I measured the shelf brackets right, and everything lined up, knew were the studs were...then it all went down hill. I drilled holes for the screws I was using, no problem drilling, but half way through putting a screw in I'd hit a point where the screw wouldn't go any further...fight with screw, strip screw, try to figure out why my damn drill can go through it with no issue whatsoever, but my screw's would only go about half way in....anyway, what should've been at tops, and hour job, took 4.

A few days later I ask our previous landlord about that wall in our living room, and come to find out, there is a brick chimney stack behind that wall, where the old fireplace use to be....so there it is, a fucking wall of brick, of all the things.....I swear if I ever dig up a sewer lateral line, I'm going to find a lost atomic bomb or something, and pull a Joe Dirt.
