Did you watch the video?
The guy is not a hipster in any way. Heâs a middle aged small businessman who earlier in the year runs his own haunted house. Itâs a viral promotion.
WTFV I guess is the new RTFA.
Where, pray tell, did I say that he (or, for that matter, anyone) was a hipster?
Boy, that was tough. You should try using the internet to do your own research sometime if you think every shed built by a guy ten years ago in his spare time with no idea how much a 2x4 can hold is even remotely safe.

In local environments itâs typically the result of someone in the past screwing up and the local inspector being told that people canât have nice things anymore. Cables through houses, particularly Cat5 have an amazing array of coatings on them, some of which can be hazardous to firefighters, especially ones that are not plenum rated.
Sure, but families should be able to decide for themselves how much their presumed safety is worth, and accept responsibility for living with it. Paying people to protect us from ourselves is usually more trouble than it is worth.
The article talks about atheists as if itâs an identifier like being a Catholic. Atheism denotes a lack, thus the âa-â on it. Theyâre hard to talk about as having one tendency, and they donât have general meetings. Oh sure some boinger will post up an atheist meetup. But by definition, atheists are not banded together, ideologically, politically or otherwise. Atheists share one trait. The rest canât be pinned on them in toto. All that to say, who is threatening religion? I highly doubt itâs atheists attacking. Itâs more like religions are beating the shit out of each other. âŚWhich says a lot about religion, doesnât it?
âŚHuh? Iâm not talking about religion being under threatâIâm not concerned about it being destroyed (especially not as a blanket concept.) Iâm not espousing some âWar on Christmasâ bullshit. All Iâm saying is that there seems to be this tendency for otherwise-intelligent (normally left-leaning) people to say âall religion is badâ without really examining that statement. See also: the end of your comment.
What? This is becoming circular. Who are these left-leant people decrying all religion if not atheists? Religious people are saying all religion is bad? Youâre not making sense.
Hold on a second.
Are we talking about left leaning people, or sheds?
OR LEFT LEANING SHED PEOPLE?
Where did I say that?
Extend your logic just a touch. Who are the intelligent, left-leaning people decrying religion? Religious intelligent, left-leaning people? Or atheistic intelligent left-leaning people? Which ones?
I guess I would have thought it was self-evident that religious people decrying religion doesnât make much sense, but I can see, in retrospect, how the structure of my response might have confused the point.
Seeing as there are too many rulez and red tape for the poor guy to keep his nativity scene up, maybe he should call it even and go buy a gun instead?
Right! So itâs ATHEISTS!!! Ding ding! We have a winner. Evil atheists. Evil unthinking intelligent left-leaning atheists are bringing you down.
Thank God. I thought you were talking about me for a minute. Iâm an evil THOUGHTFUL intelligent left leaning atheist. Phew!
Families may not have the time or education to determine what is and is not safe.
This avatar needs to win some sort of prize!
Lol no youâre cool, mate. Sorry for the confusion! Itâs more just people who reflexively say âRELIGION CAUSES ALL BAD THINGS FOREVER.â We good(?)
Nah. People do. Religion sucks too. But people. Letâs get rid of em.
You know what they sayââThe only thing you can say about mankind is thereâs nothing kind about man!â Ohohoho!

Unfortunately theyâre not the ones holding the bag because every home has insurance as a requirement for a mortgage. If you donât have to borrow the money you can do whatever you want, but if someone else is going to have to replace your house because you screwed up theyâre going to expect some kind of responsible person to look at how well your structural columns work and if your fireplace has a chance of taking everything out.
Donât like it? Pay cash. Like any other insurance in the world we all pitch in.
