In my puny little world, I think this group is a highlight of the
internet. I can instantly get my house problems analyzed by dozens of
like minded folks, expert to hacks like me, it is just a great place
however--- WHAT I ABSOLUTELY HATE - about the group is this:

Quite often someone posts a benign problem, and a core group of
judgemental fools jump in berating the poster. Some examples:

Post:
How do I soundproof a room?
Answer:
Learn to control your kid

Post:
How do I get nicotine stain off the ceiling?
Answer:
Stop Smoking

Post:
I developed a new, simple device to lock the tv
Answer:
learn to control your kid

Etc etc--

It really is naseating that this minority of pompous self-rightous
gasbags feel the need in interject their redneck view of the world onto
anyone who chooses to live life a slightly different way than they do.

Get a life people, if you feel the need to dispense advice, hit the
"Dr. Phil" website and pontificate all you want. On this site, I only
want to know how to lay a better bead of caulk, not how good parents
were "back in the day"

Learn how to use your "Block Sender" feature. When someone chimes in with
useless criticism, just block them.

It is not rocket surgery.
