Cult ****** and Simpering Cunt
While my boyfriend is mostly handy and can usually complete a household project with good results while calling in the professional for the things that he knows he can't handle, tonight he demonstrated the classical DIYer trait of "oh, not a problem! I know how <<<insert random DIY project here>>>."
For some reason he got it into his head to go to the hardware store to buy a plexi-glass plate to screw to the wall by the dishwasher because of some splattering that he had to wash off this morning. In this same wall runs the water line to our fridge's ice and water dispensers. Even though he is the one who made the cuts in the cement for this water line, he couldn't remember where it was. So what does he do? Goes and looks at THUMBS of our remodeling pictures and from there decides where to screw the holes.
Mind, this is after several points of me saying I don't think this is a good idea and if you really want that plate there (which looks horrible, mind you) wait until our friend who did our kitchen comes back over.
No, can't wait. So I ask him to at least turn off the water first, but he swears he suddenly remembers where this waterline is.
Should I mention at this point my kitchen floor currently has a rather large puddle in on it mixed with concrete dust since he now has to grind open the wall to fix the pipe that now has a hole in it? And this is the same wall that was a bitch to plaster over in the first place and paint?
What is it about the DIYer that makes him (or her) suddenly lose all common sense and do things that they shouldn't be doing in the first place.
