yeeeeaaaahhhh.... but is it enough to hold the plant if I have two of them screwed in most of the way?

Nope. Death trap. You got any left handed drill bits for that stripped out screw?

My terlets sound like jet engines. My turds could stop up an outhouse. So pretty much any time I shit in a toilet that isn't high flow, I stop it up.

How does one, actually, stop up a fng outhouse?

@Camfantasy need nawt reply,

Just to get this out of the way, that made laugh way harder than it probably should have.



I've loved fuchsia plants since I was a little kid, and I have few different ones in my backyard and have started propagating them.
I'm going to try and see if I can get a couple to do this:

Holy shizznit!! That is AWESOME!! The one I got is red & white. This dude at the farmer's market always has some really cool combinations. But when i was out of town last week or whatever, I watered pretty heavily before I left, but it took a little hit and a lot of the flowers fell off by the time I got back a couple days later. There's quite a few buds on it now though, so i'm hoping for some color.

I also picked up this one other thing the other day, and I can't find the goddamn label, but the green part of the plant is so awesome. It looks almost tropical. I'm gonna go see if I can use the plant identifier app thing to get the name... brb!

If I didn't watch that video, i'd swear you were fucking with me. "Left handed" drill bits? Dafuq? The drill thing has a button to make it go forwards and backwards, isn't that enough? If i buy one more tool-type thing, y'all gonna have me driving a Subaru and wearing flannel before I know it!

 

[Illustrious Potentate]

I have a couple mater plants in the back yard. That's the only thing I've ever planted here. I usually fry up the green maters and never have any ripe ones.

Oh, man! We have a couple of those in the complex. One particularly hardy one has the BEST yellow flowers! Why don't you do a lattice and have them grow up a fence or something?

If the screw is stripped out, the bit you're using won't get it out. Back in my rock drilling days, I had to drill out every bolt on that old piece of shit machine when changing parts, bad design and constant vibrations of the hydraulic hoses in contact with them always buggered up the heads.

And Subarus are marketed as safe cars and are thus one of the most commonly wrecked cars on the road because they're marketed towards bad drivers.

Vinca rosea cora cascade! But the flowers on mine are pastel. The one below would be better

And lesbians!

It's just the top that stripped, but not 100%. I can s-l-o-w-l-y get it all the way in, but it's annoying as hell. I seriously get it half a turn, then it slips. Did I mention sitting on the railing?! I really should stand on it, but cotdamn! i haven't been on a balance beam in a million years! I'll get dizzy and fall, for sure maybe. Prolly should have a couple beers first.

I've thought of a few things to try, but I just don't have (IMO) enuff room with the way the beds around the house are 'designed'.

Bummer... those flowers are gorgeous! I also like the way bougainvillea travel. But those are fairly weather sensitive, I think, so yeah- i gotta pass.

 

[Dolemite censored]

The screws are never long enough that come with those plant hangers.

yeeeeaaaahhhh.... but is it enough to hold the plant if I have two of them screwed in most of the way?

Also, I lied about the bottom screw. I'm anticipating that it will be easier to install than the top one, thus my "all the way in" comment. But it's not yet actually all the way in.

AND! Can I just hammer the screw the rest of the way in?

@moxie: Undo what you did. Get longer harder screws. Buy or rent a drill-driver not some weak ass electric screw.

Don't do this after you drink.

Sheesh.

Lesson to men: Women will not listen to you, but they will blame you when they fuck up.

I has spoke!

Lesbians are bad drivers.

Then slowly get it in and stop bugging us with these inane questions, bech. And get a step ladder, Butch.

She just needs to grab some pliers and use them to grab the fucking screw head and unscrew what she did.

UNDO?! This ain't no fuggin' laptop! I can't just CTRL+Y (or Z, can't remember which)! I'm just gonna try to screw it all the way in with the hand screwer thing and then use one of these drill bits as a chisel-type thing and just hammer the fuck out of it the rest of the way.

I done spoken now, too!

Holy jeeezus .... I read this is "strap-on ladder", initially.

Fuck that. I spent a small fortune in that Snap-on van that used to always come around. I'm drilling the shit out because I bought an entire set of left handed bits. I have tools that I'll probably never use. God damn van was like meth.
