inMy plumber in Phoenix mentioned he never uses a standard shower pan anymore.
Hold up, gotta push back on this. Those foam pans have gotten way better with modern seals and integrated curbs. A good installer can make one bulletproof in half the time of a mud job. @kai_burns73 had a great crew, but most guys today aren't trained on mud work and a bad mud bed is way worse than a good foam pan. The tech just moved on.

inJust realized using a 1/8 inch spacer block for my drawer slides in that 1980s kitchen saved me from a whole afternoon of shimming.
A spacer block is just admitting the house won. You call it a smart workaround, I call it giving up on geometry. It's not a fix, it's a surrender to the crookedness. At least the drawers will open smooth while the whole place slowly leans into the yard.

inRan into the guy from that 'planking' meme at a gas station in Omaha
Wait he's still working at a gas station? That's the part that gets me. The meme was everywhere for a whole summer, you'd think he at least got some money for a TV spot or something. It's crazy how these things blow up and then leave nothing behind but a weird story to tell at work. That has to mess with your head, knowing millions of people saw you but it didn't change your life at all. Just a total dead end.
