If you haven't noticed the duck tape, look again for the duck tape.

[-] shonn@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago

Even worse, it's electrical tape.

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 6 points 1 week ago

Oh. Yeah. That's... Not going to hold.

this realization took it on a whole new level

As long as drywall anchors were used, it shouldn't be an issue.

I really, really didn't think I needed a sarcasm tag here.

[-] Sludgeyy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Drywall anchors? That's got to be a solid stone wall. I don't think you can use drywall anchors.

Well you could drill out large holes and fill with spackle, then insert the drywall anchors into those areas.

Yeah should work just fine

[-] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 1 points 1 week ago

There’s anchors you can use in concrete. They’re similar.

[-] Sludgeyy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

That you can screw in without drilling a pilot hole like with some drywall anchors?

[-] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 1 points 1 week ago

No you would need to put a pilot hole in with concrete anchors

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I'm sorry, I've clearly become too jaded

Please, don't ever use the sarcasm tag, it's the internet equivalent of explaining the joke

[-] Shapillon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I like sarcasm tags.

Imho you lose a lot of cues by going from speaking to writing.

It helps those of us who struggle with things like sarcasm

[-] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

As long as drywall anchors were used [to mount a CRT TV to a wall with electrical tape], it shouldn't be an issue.

I'm on the spectrum and I don't know how anyone could actually read, understand, but then still interpret this comment as anything but unambiguous sarcasm unless they don't know the first thing about basic home maintenance. As much as I appreciate it sometimes when something is unclear to me, for others, the /s takes something of value away from a joke when the intention was clear.

I use different ways to mark sarcasm, as i don't like SpElLiNg It OuT. I get some fun responses and people show their true colours

[-] Th4tGuyII@fedia.io 16 points 1 week ago

The poor VESA mount, she wasn't built for this!

[-] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 week ago

Well, that walls coming down

[-] whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

yep, duck tape will not break!

[-] shonn@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

If only he had used that and not electrical tape.

[-] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 8 points 1 week ago

I want to see the video

Let's see if it pays off for him.

[-] merde@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

is he inside the tv?

we can also see his shirt through the air vents

Pretty sure that's just dust buildup

Hey, at least it won’t be fodder for !tvtoohigh@lemmy.world.

Internet as an art

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I will introduce more rules later and when I finish doing that I will make an announcement post about that.

For overall temporary guide check out the rules here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hmmm/wiki/rules/

I won't be moving all of them here but I will keep most of them.
