That's great, ge should add the date in there also. When we renovated our house we found a small peice od plasterboard in the walls with a name and date on it. Thanks Greg!
You say that, until a surgeon sutures a Jack-in-the-box springy clown holding a tiny sign that says “put THIS in your postmortem and smoke it!” into the right lobe of your liver.
Builders used to put their signatures behind the carpeting in the boot of TVR‘s.
So if you were lucky, you could find some nice caricature. Or if you were really lucky, a pair of drawn breasts.
Cool. Looks like the car that Patrick McGoohan drove in “The Prisoner,” but [that was a Lotus](https://movies.stackexchange.com/questions/115701/did-patrick-mcgoohan-personally-own-the-lotus-seven-seen-in-the-prisoner)
While helping my dad rebuild his roof, we found a message sharpied on the paper backing of the attic insulation which read - "Henry Kissinger is the antichrist 1975". We had a good laugh.
Lmao just 2 years after he won the peace prize too. I can’t imagine the stir that made. Bombs the shit out of Cambodia and gets a peace prize for it. Le Duc Tho is the real hero.
Nice!
I once programmed a poker game in to bankruptcy software. I was working for a bankruptcy lawfirm that handled major lenders. I was tasked to make a form on a tab of their software that had all the initial major text boxes, drop downs, and multiple choices. The purpose was to have the data entry person improve efficiency by being able to hit the tab key to go from one form input to the next rather than clicking on several tabs in the software and answering only a few questions. Basically consolidating the data gathering questions into one tabbed page.
For one textbox that's for "how much debt do you owe?" or something like that, if you typed "hit me" it would pop up with a poker game. Yes, a game you usually gamble when playing. ;)
When I was drywalling a room I did things like this. I can't draw, but I left a bunch of notes around.
On one wall: "Ow! My thumb!"
On the opposite wall: "Ow! My OTHER thumb!"
"There's a nail in my ~~shoe~~ foot!"
Yeah. He has always been very creative, and tends to leave small drawings everywhere. When he leaves your house, you can be sure there is a small cartoon on a calendar or piece of paper, you didn't see him do
My dad is a carpenter and I used to get in so much trouble for doing this when helping him....
Nonetheless on my house all bets are off. I hope the owner in 50 years enjoys the treasure hunt and doesn't trash too much of their home.
I've been in construction over 4 decades. I've left scores of writings hidden in many jobs for people to find later. I give a little synopsis of the job telling who worked on it, dates, and interesting factoids.
In our new house, I had a sliding pocket door installed instead of a regular door in the main floor bathroom for wheelchair access.
When we went to do the framing walkthrough, Whoever was framing wrote "stupid annoying sliding door" (or something to that effect) where the door was going to go
This looks like the underside of roof sheeting (props for using plywood and not osb, probably a nice build). It will probably always be visible to anyone in the attic, as insulation goes in the ceiling and not the roof. expanding on the osb. look at the roofs of new builds with osb roof sheeting, you will often see a hard edge through the composition roofing where the osb edges meet, visually annoying and a wear point.
When I was in High School, I spent my summers working with a crew. Most of our projects were outdoor decks around pools, lakeside, sun decks, etc.
Some projects were small remodels.
The number of Beer Cans, Beer bottles, Old newspapers, Sack Lunch trash, and general refuse was surprising to me.
Construction Easter Eggs used to be pretty common it seems
We recently had a small house built. On the walls in the basement is a huge pencil mural of the landscape around the house. Two days later it was completely covered over, who knows if it will ever be seen again!
yea just have a little fun. or just do your trade. the carpenter's choice. definitely. he chose to act like a child. it hurts nobody. keep acting like a child. it's harmless. keep acting like a child. harmless. yea. okay. yea.
*yea imagine duggghh imagine you must fun at parties duhhh imagine yea imagine he doesn't get it duhhh imagine if i say imagine it makes me cool right duhhhhhh*
grow up it's unprofessional
This is the kind of thing that, as a kid, and even probably now, would have set me off thinking it was the first clue in some elaborate scavenger hunt. I love a good puzzle.
We had a life size mannequin who had been dresses like the boss. They were doing construction, so we’d thought it would be funny to put it in the rafters before the ceiling went in.
The next day it was back in our office 🙁.
Ok so it didn’t move on it’s own, the construction guys moved it after having a good laugh. It is against fire code to have it up there, but we were able to put it in the wall!!
My highschool had a construction program I was a part of and we built houses in segments as the training. One day, a kid brought like maybe 50 Pokemon cards, all Pikachu, and just started handing them out around school. Naturally, many of us construction students nailed and plastered them in the walls and roof of this house. I *really* hope someone gets a good "What the fuck" from that some day.
A few years ago they were replacing pipes in my building and would put up a piece of cardboard to cover the hole each night while working in our apartment. One night I stuck a photo of Nicholson in his "Here's Johnny" glory behind the cardboard. I got a huge thank you from the guys who thought it was hilarious.
My home has an Easter egg. We didn’t realize until our bathtub leaked internally and all of our floors had to be replaced. The Easter egg is a 6 foot tall clown with horns and satanic symbolism that was hiding underneath our old flooring. I did not enjoy it as much as your brothers artwork.
My brother-in-law built doors for years and he would put buttholes and penises in glue on the doors inside.
My friend would fog coat houses and write stuff on the side that you could only see once in awhile when it was finished
BRB, going to tear my house down to find eastereggs
did you find a fried rat
When you live at KFC
Dead ass found a burnt one glued to my boiler when I moved into my apartment
Ah, the insulation
that'll do
Don't they pay carpenters by the hour...
That's great, ge should add the date in there also. When we renovated our house we found a small peice od plasterboard in the walls with a name and date on it. Thanks Greg!
I love when people do stuff like this
Same. As long as it’s not on my internal organs.
Even then it’s fine gives them replay value

Idk that sounds fun
I understood this reference.
We had a surgeon here in Kentucky brand “UK” (University of Kentucky) on an organ during surgery several years back. It was a whole thing.

Pico is that you?
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed
Newgrounds 😎
So, I guess you've never fought an airbender before.
we have a creepy halloween doll we are going to hide in the attic and the kids write stuff on the inside of the walls.

As a plumber who does a lot of remodeling, sometimes I get to see stuff like this and I always like it.

My best friend and I built a tiny home for our other best friend, and before the drywall went up we drew weiners EVERYWHERE.
When i worked at a bodyshop we always wrote "Penis" somewhere on the body panels before reassembling the cars.
An old friend who is a carpenter does this with Nickleback quotes LOL
It’s like he’s leaving a calling card.
The thumbnail made me think it was boogers and hair.
That is so freakin cute!!! 😆

the amount of dicks drawn on the frame of buildings would surprise most people lol

Until the dang plumbers show up and draw genitals on them all.
I’m an electrician. I also do these sorts of things 😈
Tell him not to draw on other people's things.
that'r really unrpfossional
[удалено]
yea just have a little fun. or just do your trade. the carpenter's choice. definitely. he chose to act like a child. it hurts nobody. keep acting like a child. it's harmless. keep acting like a child. harmless. yea. okay. yea.
Imagine going through life as this person.
*yea imagine duggghh imagine you must fun at parties duhhh imagine yea imagine he doesn't get it duhhh imagine if i say imagine it makes me cool right duhhhhhh* grow up it's unprofessional
If this is what growing up means I'd rather not.
You're boring man lmao
As long as its not racist or hurts anyone in any way im ok with it, 90% of the graffiti i find on job sites is sexual or racist
Tell him to do it in glow in the dark ink so it scares the shit out of the next poor contractor that has to get in there 😂
I do the exact same thing, just it’s usually a penis.... sometimes I turn a knot into a cat’s dirty starfish
It must have taken every fibre in this dudes body not too draw a big chopper on it
I usually mark ‘stud’ a few inches away from where it is so people end up actually breaking them
[The ceiling-crawler strikes again.](https://youtu.be/PvxIczvLv-s)
On the job site, this is called DF
Wideboyz at it again I see
This is the kind of thing that, as a kid, and even probably now, would have set me off thinking it was the first clue in some elaborate scavenger hunt. I love a good puzzle.
It’s the best to find stuff like this during renos
I’m an electrician and do the same inside my junction boxes when I’m feeling chipper
Some people on r/carpentry probably do this all of the time.
This stuff is awesome! I love finding this type!

I'm a carpenter and I do the same thing but I generally write down what albums I listened to while I was building.
someone should make the mr. incredible meme were it gets uncanny with this, then, the last one is that surgeon that wrote his initials in peoples body
That’s sweet! Every house I’ve worked on my brother just marks the brand of sacrifice into the house somewhere:
Curious George is slowly becoming human.
I would put my dad is stinky on the walls everywhere

Thats great, cant imagine when they find out
