I do, but not to clean drywall putty off it

I don't think drywall is a thing in apartments here. Growing up I always thought that "punching through the wall" was something they put in for comedic effect, because here you'd just crush your hand.

Where I'm from, the walls are mostly made of either brick & mortar, or straight up concrete. Some would be from particle boards and drywalls for less critical stuff, but most if not all would have reinforced concrete as their foundation.

However, I've stayed where construction's made out of wood, and would use drywall. I've seen people comically punch thru walls and doors when they're emotional.

Edit: Most of the time, they wouldn't punch thru. You can easily leave a hole witha single hit, but to get to the other side, you'd need to be really angry.

To be fair, some of our walls are a bit more hollow, and can be easily drilled into. I wonder if they're more or less drywall. Though I don't think you could punch through them without hurting yourself. There's this part of me that now wishes to try, but it's like as best we don't find out. 😅
