Crack in the wall!

Post by Ice Cream Jonsey »

Holy shit! My bedroom has a goddamn crack running down the wall! What the fuck?

What could cause this? Is my house falling apart?

Paying rent to live in somebody else's house? But yeah, if it's *your* house, a crack on the wall is more worrying.

Wall cracks are typically caused by sinking foundations or shifts in the house. If you caught any of those tornado winds that came through Denver not too long ago, it's possible that caused it. Otherwise, the ground probably shifted, the foundation shifted a little, and the drywall cracked. It's also possible that moisture is getting behind the wall. If the studs get wet they can warp and that will cause it to crack.

OK. I was worried that you thought I lived like a disgusting orc at the bottom of a spider-pit.

Sure the house wasn't built on a graveyard? I seen this movie once where all the houses were built over dead people and really bad things started happening. But cracks in the walls were the first sign.

Just saying

It's probably micro earthquakes caused by fracking.

Can we the audience get a picture of the alleged crack? If the crack resembles Jesus you can sell it for a lot of money!

Selling crack is illegal though.

You know my Grandfather used to build houses. He built his family this big, huge, beautiful house on a hill.

One day he noticed a crack in the wall down in the basement. He didn't do anything about it. The crack got bigger and bigger. He didn't do anything about it. Cinder blocks started falling out of the wall. He didn't do anything about it. Eventually dirt started pouring into the basement. He didn't do anything about it. They moved. He died.

You might wanna fix it.

Yes, I own a house BY MYSELF you villainous curs, and depending on how far along Gerrit's slander suit is, I am fairly certain that none of the rest of you can say the same.

Next time you and your girlfriends or wives have to hold the quill together to sign the check for the mortgage company, rub your butts together as you remember that as usual, Ice Cream Jonsey does the lady parts all by himself.
