How Did You Prove Your Manliness Today?

[Cruiser]

Keeping daughter number ones hair out of her puke at 3am, she’s 8. Then weaving baskets as a craft with daughter number 2 at 6am. She’s 6. I’m feeling an afternoon nap.

Yup, that's a dad who is well in his way to earning a shot at the coveted and elusive afternoon beer and subsequent recliner nap.

Yesterday was little Viva's birthday. Texted her (3 hour time difference) telling her how awesome she is and how I'm digging life so much more because of her. Later on, mail deliver my present (on fucking time, for once!) and she called. Great conversation, as usual, and she apologized profusely for flaking on me last month when I was supposed to fly out, due to family issues. I told her that her mom needs to die in a fucking fire. She sighed and said nothing. But she didn't disagree. #Dadknowsbest.

Ohh i know. Nothing wrong with telling your kid her mother needs to die in a fire... oh excuse me, a fucking fire.

[Ted Striker]

Spent the afternoon visiting a friend who just had 20% of his intestines, his spleen and half his pancreas removed because of cancer..

I couldn't have got through his past year with his courage, fortitude, and good humor.

My vote is he wins over splitting logs or banging milfs.. any other pathetic bullshit in this thread.

I'm completely fucking humbled by this man. Puts divorces, skin glue, herpes, even bad brake jobs in perspective.

I installed a new outlet box and hung a light without turning the breaker off...

Here's the deal..it's not your fucking place to say or criticize. I get your dad was an asshole, doesn't give you carte blanche and in fact from what you've said here your childhood wasn't even all that rough.

You are so right! It's manly as fuck to tell your child her mother needs to die in a fucking fire! I made a huuuggge mistake thinking that was a fucked up thing to brag about saying.... manly as fuck! My mistake. Carry on.

Took the wife to see "Only The Brave" last night and got all chocked up and wet eyed at the end.

Checked into this thread, then ducked out when it appeared that thread drift was eminent.

Taught my 5 yr old daughter how to disassemble her bike drivetrain in order to remove a foofy Cinderella dress that had gotten wrapped around the gear (fixed hub so we could not wind it back. Had to pull her out of the dress with the bike still attached to it, put her in a change of clothes, then fix the dress/bike combo the next day when tools were avail).

[Ted Striker]

I replaced a light with the breaker off and got shocked anyway. Same thing happened to the electrican when he installed the original light. He couldn't figure it out. House was wired by the original owner who reversed the polarity in all the outlets among other things.

I'm guessing the house was built in the 50s or earlier? i.e. pre-ground wire.

Obviously the wrong my breaker was turned off, probably due to mislabeling

definitely

Or two circuits are tied together unintentionally by said hot neutral?

Intentionally unintentionally tied together There has to be more to the story...

_____
Pro tip for all the manly wannabes: It was within code and common practice to have more than one circuit in a single box. It was also allowed by the code (up until 2011, IIRC) to run supply to fixture, and run a hot switch loop.

In either of the above scenarios, simply flipping the switch to "off" will do nothing to prevent you from getting shocked.

[Sagamoron]

Used a chainsaw, split some wood, then built a stand for some smaller outboard engines to get them out of the way in the garage, and used the scraps to build a balance beam for the kiddo.

Drank some brown liquor, built a fire, watched the Pats win.

Great shot.

Swapped out the rear hatch support struts on my wagon today in 8 minutes. Kinda bummed it didn't take longer. Replaced the batteries on 2 of my wife's watches in about 3 minutes, cuz I had the right tools. Again, kinda bummed how fast I can do it.

[TheSilverSurfer]

First I made breakfast for my wife and kid. Then I went to work poured some concrete ran and asphalt saw for a while. Came home made dinner. Gave the kid a bath. Then headed to our house that I'm remodeling and rewired one of the bedrooms and the bathroom and pulled all the drywall down off the ceiling in the hallway.
