He just had to take off wallpaper and then paint the walls. Unfortunately, behind the wallpaper was mold and a ten year infestation of termites.

What amazes me about this thread is that it turns into a stupid, name calling, flame war. How can a non-controversial subject like house painting turn into this, while yesterday’s Thread Of The Day truly was controversial and yet remained civil?
