I'm really getting tired of people who are too ****ing lazy to compose a

I used duration 10 years ago on the outside of my house, cedar shingle.
Duration is warranted for life..Bad faded shingles appeared so I will need
to paint it again...Sherwin Williams did good on their warranty and gave me
more than enough to cover what needs to be painted..Am I going to use it
again?? I don't know. According to consumers reports Home Depot's Behr is
very highly rated...good luck

I would find out what the warranty is all about on "duration" first.
But I must admit anything with the word "super" is hard to resist.

I'm starting to wonder how many of these postings are one-handed text

Which would in itself be a lame excuse.

Once you get used to them, they're relatively benign. Been around for ages.

I've never seen or used Web TV and I have no idea what Barcolounger is.
Why would someone use such a thing (pay?) that does not even provide a
primitive basic such as typing. I really don't think that's the case. I
think it's just plain too much trouble, aka lazy, to make reasonable use
of caps and punctuation so it's legible.

Look at the recent post:
Subject: Refrigerator problem - again!
From:
(---MIKE---)
Newsgroups: alt.home.repair
Probably better than I would do using a newsreader and it appears to be
from Web TV.

No, I'm not some language nut nor am I a typist but I read what I type
and make reasonable corrections as necessary to what I catch. In the case
of XNews, there is no spelling grammar checker that I know of.

I wonder what kind of havoc it causes to someone who has vision problems
and their computer reads and translates to audio? I know nothing about
that software but my guess is that when it doesn't recognize something it
spells it out.

Look at what it might have to spell out:

Hi,im
spring,what
use,duration,or
paint,im
gun,any
,thanks

Maybe the software is smart enough to figure it out by running
unrecognized things through a WrittenByLazyassOrIdiot macro before
outputting it as spelled audio.

I don't need to get used to them. They can mingle among each other with
full understanding between them.

I agree. There are spaces in there, and capitals, and a period; the
technology's obviously capable of it - it's just that the OP was just too
lazy to bother with it. To be honest, that makes me far too lazy to help
them out.

Ha ha! I was replying to you as I was reading your post, so I typed
exactly that before seeing that you'd got there first :-) (I even used
'lazy-ass', too)

Prep? You mean you can't just spray the bulk dirt off with a garden hose
and then paint right over the remaining dirt, mildew and moss?

It took me all but 2 seconds to Google Sherwinn Williams.
The site had the two paints the OP was inquiring about. I was easy to

As far as I can tell his email was clear. Badly written but clear.

In the ole days, there was "spick-and-span", used for washing for
paint prep.

I figured I would never get all the desert dust out of my rough

So important, lots and lots of time-consuming preparation. Repair any
areas. Then Benjamin Moore Fast-dry Primer, then Benjamin Moore
finish coat. A second coat of of finish coat, maybe. If your location
has mold/mildew issues add additional mildewcide. I prefer Sherwin
Williams or Behr for interior painting.

"Good" painters don't.
Good painters prepair the surface well, removing or killing all mildew
and removing as much dirt as possible.

TSP is generally used as a basis for most paint prep.

Ho gosh, it's been about four decades since I worked for an electrical
supply company that had an assortment of Hillbonics speaking employees
who supplied me with endless entertainment. There was a salesman who
said to me "Do exactly what I tell you. Don't never do that." The guy
got all bent out of shape when I did exactly as I was told. Arguments
were always a lot of fun, irregardless of the subject.[sic] Trying to
explain what portmanteau meant was an exercise in futility. Y'all wood

But was that really good prep? No mold, mildew, stain or other stuff

Growing up in The South the way I have gives me a great perspective
on Southern regional dialects. Most people don't realize that there
are numerous Southern accents. I am fluent in most of the dialects.
Half my relatives are Damn Yankees so I have to communicate with them
too. I had to learn Yankbonics too.

My all time favorite report was a "Incident Report".

Body of Report:

I'll never forget that one as long as I live. Yes, it was a real
report in Florida.
It's so funny when you try to correct their English. They may yell,

At the job site we had a Secretary. All reports crossed her desk as
she had the only typing machine.

- Bummminham: The biggest city in Alabama. "You can travel cross this
entire land, they ain't no place like Bummminham."

- Caint: Cannot. "Ah just caint understand why this checkbook won't
balance."

- Et: To have eaten. "You done et.?"


Growing up in The South the way I have gives me a great perspective
on Southern regional dialects. Most people don't realize that there
are numerous Southern accents. I am fluent in most of the dialects.
Half my relatives are Damn Yankees so I have to communicate with them
too. I had to learn Yankbonics too.

Yankbonics - lol? I's guess I gots some of that just like some of youze
guys.

Being a D. Yankee, I didn't know there were several Southern
dialects. I know that Texas is different than Southern, but,
honeychile, I didn't know the rest of what you wrote.

I would guess Yankbonics is northern black dialect? That
provides whole different directions. What happens when a
bunch of Michigan Detroit blacks visit NAACP meeting in
Georgia? They walk around telling each other "Y'all talk
funny"?

I wonder what "it" is.


It was a store brand, Coast to Coast if I remember correctly.


Wasn't that the house label of Standard Brands? They've been out of
business for, what, 30 years or so?

Not that long. It was about 15 years ago.

Of course, that couldn't possibly be due to poor prep, now could it?


Nope - I scraped and primered it before painting.


But was that really good prep? No mold, mildew, stain or other stuff
needing removed? What about caulking, filling, other surface prep?

Maybe you actually did a decent prep job, but "scraped and prime[re]d
it" doesn't usually cut it.

When I redid it, I used Columbia and did not have the problem.

You'd be guessing wrong, and it shows your inherent racism. But that
comes with the territory, I guess, being a Mormon and all.
