It does suck. Bought a new house recently and I think I've finally just finished following orders to finish decorating.

Yeah, well no shite. I mean the odds of your wife wanting to hang pictures on a stud are minimal.

I feel your pain. Mine has a lot of doubles that have to hang side by side and a couple of them have the wire on the back that are not in the same elevation.

We moved in our home in March and I still have a couple left to hang.

I would rather spend all day putting together IKEA furniture than hanging up stuff on the wall.


I just look at IKEA furniture as like a giant puzzle to figure out, and I like puzzles.

F that particle board furniture. I hate that way more than hanging pictures on the wall.

Yeah, my husband would agree with you. He ridiculously over measures, and I want to eyeball it. And my eyeballing is more accurate than his fifty measurements.

After the first 10-15 pictures, I told her I am never hanging another picture again. After asking me a few times and me saying she is more than capable, she does it all now.

Proper way to do this is do a real shitty job from the start. She'll get frustrated and take over and you'll never have to do it again.

Sorry that you're not manly enough to use a few simple tools, common sense, and simpe math to do inside work.

That's normally not the problem. Women are very particular about where and how pictures are hung. It's never done right...

Unless you're hanging pictures in the kitchen, she shouldn't be in the same room as you.
