I own a company that does fences, whenever someone suggests a big gate my first reaction is always “nope”. They never stay square, they’re too heavy. It might be a few months if they’re getting regular use, maybe a year if you’re lucky, but either way I fully wash my hands of that shit. I won’t warranty it and I do everything I can to discourage them.

If you’re insisting on a driveway gate you need to find someone who can weld aluminum tube and make a frame with built-in hinges that’ll rest on a pin. I don’t know the actual name of that style of hinge, similar to a J bolt but my welder makes a huge plate for them to attach to a wall or post. Then you can cover that frame with wood, or preferably something even lighter.

I’ve made a 24’ aluminum and vinyl gate like this that rested on a single hinge, and it worked. It was expensive, impractical, and had other issues, but gosh darn, it didn’t sag.

Wood is just too heavy and not strong enough for a gate that gets used regularly, any fix you make is temporary

Not sure if it’s the same everywhere, but if I pull a dividend I don’t pay tax initially, but when I do my income taxes it’s part of my income and I’d have to pay tax on it then

During the whole yo-yo craze, did you accidentally break the classroom’s fishtank with a yo-yo, landing you a month’s worth of detention? During a detention session where the teacher is not present, you rummaged through her desk for your yo-yo and discover personal ad written by the teacher, ultimately deciding to respond to it as a prank?

Do you know what a Shit Barometer is? Measures the Shit Pressure in the air. When the Barometer rises, and you’ll feel it too, your ears will implode with the Shit Pressure. I tried to warn you, Bubs, but you picked the wrong side!
Beware, the Shit Winds are a-comin’.

Dark Nights with Poe and Munroe is the only game in my library that came up as mostly positive, and it’s a…mood, for sure

Imagine if a community theatre group made a cheesy suspense/mystery film that ended up feeling like an excuse to dress up sexy. When they finished they sold it to a game studio who chopped up the video, added some quicktime events and shipped it.

Mechanically it’s not great, and it’s not great writing, but when I opened myself up to the silliness of it I enjoyed it

Sounds like someone’s got a case of Jebaditis
