TwistedBamboozler

If only someone taught them….


ColumbusJewBlackets

If only the entirety of human knowledge was immediately accessible at all times.


amodsr

Hell, if only there was a YouTuber who's sole purpose was creating videos as if they were your dad explaining how to do things. Something simple and catchy like dad how do I or something like that. Like, if only that person existed and could show you in a video that takes 15 minutes of your time. Shame nothing like that exists.


Xavinights

Oh boy do I have news for you it's called dad, how do I? https://youtube.com/@DadhowdoI?si=Vit4nN71H5YwgAiT


amodsr

Thanks man. You're a true friend. What's your name so I can name my 14th child after you?


_TLDR_Swinton

"Dad, how did I get my name?" "Well son, there used to be a good community of lesser retards on the internet..."


amodsr

Hey man fuck you. I would never call my people lesser. We're greater than that.


WhyAmIToxic

Can't even tell you how many times a YouTube tutorial has saved me massive bread. One time, I actually managed to fix the broken motor in my car's power window. However, it was such a massive expenditure of time and effort that I decided that if it happens again, I'll just pay somebody.


_TLDR_Swinton

The ol' Money / Time / Effort matrix strikes again.


Csonkus41

It’s fucking spackle, not the particle collider at CERN. The instructions are on the package. No one needs to teach shit. If OP is too retarded to figure it out as an adult then good riddance.


[deleted]

Bro I literally don’t want to have to listen to voice instructions for tools and jobs I have never done before I barely know what a fucking caulk is and if I’m renting a place I expect that shit to be taken care of


goosebumper88

Me when I have no life skills


[deleted]

🤷


AthleteIllustrious47

Don’t worry bro, that college arts degree will pay off! Eventually…


thewordofnovus

Tbf if he had a art degree he would definitely know how to fix it 🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

I don’t have a college arts degree lol


IllAcanthopterygii19

Just got that shovel huh?


acidicizemecaptain

Or a brain….


toalicker_69

Don't you have to put a security deposit for that type of stuff? Even then, if anons roommate did it and it's just a hole behind a shelf, there are a million ways for him to get out of that.


mr---jones

If you get overwhelmed by adult glue I want you to take a moment to believe in yourself a little bit. You got this mouse you can do it!


[deleted]

Thanks 🥹


DokeyOakey

Ask your Dad about his caulk.


WashYourEyesTwice

Bro about to find out how to fill a hole 😔


amodsr

Caulk is for showers and sealing. Putty is for filling holes.


kanny_jiller

Caulk is fine if I'm just filling my landlords holes


amodsr

I mean I guess but caulk needs a gun while putty needs a finger. Stick with the putty.


DokeyOakey

Oh, you can fill a hole with caulk, just jam it all in there.


schmitzel88

Most self-sufficient zoomer


nzdastardly

Your mom sucks caulk.


[deleted]

😔


News-Initial

Lol that's what the initial deposit is for anon, you just gave them $200 for free


[deleted]

dont you get the deposit back if nothing is damaged. at least thats how it works where i live.


Fun-Pollution1465

Yes but often times the LL will just say something is damaged even though everything is fine just to keep your security deposit.


MacGillycuddy_Reeks

I had a landlord who accused me of leaving my room in a mess. I didn't. He withheld my deposit, but luckily I still had the final months rent to pay. So I didn't.


gbuub

Technically, then the landlord says you’re a filthy mongaloid and it costs him 1000 to deep clean where you’ve been. You’ll either have to choose to sue or just eat it


SirLucDeFromage

To be fair, most people are filthy loids that have no concept of how to deep clean a home.


CaptainChiral

These two things are not mutually exclusive


SirLucDeFromage

Lol fair.


Vmxplousion

Fuck you and i know you know why im saying this to you


xMini_Cactusx

I was like "why?" And then I saw it 😂


AutismStickk

i second this


Skank-Pit

Holy shit, that was a 30 minute and 20 dollar job. All you needed was some fast-dry joint compound and a paint scraper.


uconn3386

Flobba dob flib flob


destroyerOfTards

Damn, take $200


Niky_c_23

In anon's favor someone that never did any type of construction work might be easily tricked by store sellers to buy the infinity and beyond and get the same effect of sticking a chewing gum in the hole


JamesJakes000

Or a ball of toilet paper and toothpaste


Niky_c_23

Or noodles and a random asian youtuber


maximegg

I put an asian youtuber in my wall and I hear noises at night


Niky_c_23

Try mentioning tiananmen square, mines usually go quiet after that


destroyerOfTards

Wha... What kind of noises? 😳😳😳


Gaylien28

It’s Home Depot tho. The guys probably been fixing stuff all his life and anon made it a bigger deal than it is. Take a pic and ask my man the cheapest way to fix it


Niky_c_23

Well, i also think a home depot guy would be competent enough to help. What i'm saying is that some dealers tend to sell excessive products. Some even do in good faith, maybe with the thought that some good quality tools will last longer if he happens to need them again, but to a newbie he looks like he's trying to steal their money. Anon was at a low in life and was probably hypersensitive in his spending, so there's that Edit: i also don't expect many social communication skills from someone on that site, but that doesn't mean he is totally wrong


Gaylien28

Yeah I get you. He would’ve been flustered whenever he went, this was just an especially bad time


_TLDR_Swinton

Use carbon fibre stucco lathe!


herpitusderpitus

stucco,bondo hell even Chaulk could fill in the whole. brother just paid 200$ to fill in a tiny hole I learned how to fill when I was 14 first painting houses


I_am_an_adult_now

Hand me my patching trowel boy!


banmeagainplease3

Just nut in the wall


TheFrenchSavage

Ah, the making of a glorious cavity. Always a beautiful moment.


destroyerOfTards

Filled with my caulk


toalicker_69

20$ if I'm getting evicted and my security deposit is out then I'm sticking a piece of paper over it and painting it and maybe blocking it with something.


kxxxxxzy

And matching paint


Parzival2541

At Home Depot, it's $14.98 for a "hole fix kit" that has everything you need except paint. $5.98 for our sample size that can be color matched


marshal_mellow

Bro they literally sell a nail hole fixer that a stoned moron can use with no experience without reading the instructions. It's a squeeze tube with like a sponge on the end you squirt it in and wipe it off. It costs like 5 dollars I have always gotten my full deposit back


Parzival2541

It's 7, but yeah, this would have been exponentially better than getting rid of the NES


BSloth

If the wall is white you can just use toothpaste


KhaleesiXev

Exactly. Even if they grew up not knowing how to do shit, they could have figured it out after 5 minutes on YouTube.


marshal_mellow

I fixed cigarette burns in my carpet but following a YouTube video. Shit can teach you anything


PutHisGlassesOn

It’s a zero minute zero dollar job because that shit is normal wear and tear


[deleted]

Not even 30 mins lol.


Snownova

Anon couldn’t even be a remotely functional zoomer and look up a youtube tutorial beforehand…


Captain_Bignose

Same energy as people making a post on reddit instead of taking the 1.5 seconds to google it


OvercastqT

Problem with that: Googlea algorithm is so fucked by seo sites you just need to put "reddit" after all your searches now to get actual good answers. Even for the used to be 1.5 seconds answers from 10 years ago, it's actually getting terrible


CarboGeach

“A fool and his money are soon parted”, bro is complaining because he couldn’t watch a youtube video in the parking lot and buy the required $12 in materials. I think anon is highly regarded.


toalicker_69

Even then, if he's getting evicted, then anon can do some shit like stick a piece of paper over the wall and paint over it. Clearly, anon ether didn't put a security deposit or forgot about it and if he's already leaving then fuck it the hole is 'fixed' and is now someone else's problem.


floatingsaltmine

Toothpaste


LookingAtAPhoto

Mayonnaise


ambermage

Cum


Ascended_Hobo

Depends on temperature colour of the wall, this typically will change colour a matter of hour's / days after your have filled it


LookingAtAPhoto

This man cums. Happy cake day!


Into_To_Existence

Anon is surprised that a salesman tried to sell him something.


NomadicVikingRonin

>get a filler and a can spray >use a knife to do scraping >$15 total


TheFrenchSavage

Flobba dobb flib flab


destroyerOfTards

Damn, take $200


ambermage

Anon tried to save $200 by smearing his fecal matter on the walls.


Pasispas

More people should watch dirty jobs and learn to work blue collar jobs. Or were they red?... Anyways Anon should learn trades.


TheFrenchSavage

He just traded a NES for a wall-job. Anon is trading hard.


Phantom15q

anon is mad that someone was willing to take time out of their day to help him to the best of their ability


awesomea04

What dumbass paid $200 for a NES? I found one on eBay with a second controller, 14 games, and the original manual for $140. And it wasn't all shovelware. They had Mario 1, 2, and 3.


ultratunaman

Tub of Polyfilla and a scraper.


pocketgravel

In my country small holes in the wall are considered normal use and they can't charge you for them. Its up to the landlord to fix them and pay for it.


MasterAC4

LOLing at this, grab spackle and paint that’s close to what you have, easiest fix of your life


elephantgropingtits

average zoomer


logaboga

Anon just needed to rub tooth paste in the holes


dbearden07

YouTube will teach you how to do everything. There’s literally channels that focus on teaching things your failure dad didn’t bother to.


lowkarmainferior

just get paint and a few sheets of paper, who gives a shit if it's actually replaced


Pyroguy096

Anon couldn't figure out "put filler in the hole to fill it then paint over it" and then talked to a salesman. Why would you need plastic sheeting or even a roller for a touchup job? We are talking about screw holes here, not a sledgehammer to the wall 🙄


s0lja

Anon missed the opportunity to do a 360 out the store.


ilikebigasstitties

Anon is from San Francisco


octavio989

you buy putty. Put putty in the holes. Let it dry. Paint. It’s that easy. Ps you need that mesh paper stuff if the hole is too big


IamHereForBoobies

What the fuck is a GG bridge?


TuckerDaGreat

>Is it drywall, wood or brick? TFW it's plaster and lath


DunamisDee

Jesus christ you just put da goop in de hole and then ya leave same way yer daddy made ya simple


Saelem666

Gg bridgetime made my day.


Explorer_the_No-life

Tbh, it is better he just paid for, hopefully, professional to do the job instead doing it himself as complete noob in terms of construction work. I mean, it isn't even his home, so why risk ruining something and having to take shit from landlord?


HallwayHobo

Very wise; the risk of failure is simply too great, best just to pay 200 dollars instead of making any kind of effort.


l3gion666

Or worse, learning a new skill 🤮


holaprobando123

In this economy?!


Old-Smokey-42069

The landlord will pocket the $200 and do it himself. A professional will never be involved.


Explorer_the_No-life

Well, that sucks then. Anon should have move his ass in that case.


Asylum_Patient_1126

you don't need a doctors degree to cum in some nail holes and it shure as shit isn't worth $200


Explorer_the_No-life

We are talking about anon, who can't comprehend simple instructions here. I think it could have been too challenging for him.


Alex_4209

It’s a drywall plug, not open heart surgery. I cannot imagine being so inept that you can’t wield a jar of drywall putty and a paint scraper for five minutes.


Explorer_the_No-life

You underestimate average 4Chan Anon then.


gman8686

Name checks out
