Watching one of my favourite TV show. Yup, I am not your regular guy. I don't watch Running Man, I don't watch mainstream TV show. I watch American house remodeling TV show. I prefer watching sweaty DILF's remodelling houses than watching absurdly cute plastic surgery face Korean men. (Sorry for the stereotype, I never watch Korean drama. All I know is they look too good too be true)
Did is call Roger, Richard, Tommy, Norm and Kevin DILF's? Whoops! Hey! I meant I prefer watching regular men doing regular things. I like Tommy's tips and techniques. Finding a stud, (frame stud, not stud stud) just by knocking the wall. That's akin to doctor's percussion. Doctor's percuss patient's chest to look for liquid accumulation or mass in the lungs. Tommy percuss old houses wall to find stud.
Norm is an excellent carpenter. He had his own show on replicating antique pieces. He is also to coolest one. He's more of a father figure among all these men.
Kevin, is the host. And I quite envy his job. Playing with power tools with his colleague. Kevin is quite cute too. I just wish I am as cute as him. Just kidding.
Richard is always up to date with his plumbing and HVAC technology. And a great diagnostician. He applies doctor's differential diagnoses to plumbing and HVAC.
Roger is great with landscaping. I like when he design retaining walls and patio, always beautiful. He also lays brick walkway, built fire pits, dry well, french drain and hardscapings.
But one thing that makes me nervous. They seldom wear PPE's. It's quite scary to watch Norm cut woods without guard, Tommy ripping dry walls without helmets and mask and all. Or am I just too cautious? Or is my imagination too vivid?
However, looking at the results, it's worth watching all those things. It's like an ugly duckling transforming into a beautiful swan. Still worth watching even though the building codes and techniques here are different than in North America.
DILF - daddy I like to xxxx (well, aren't most sweating men doing macho things are?)
HVAC - heating ventilation air conditioning
PPE - personal protective equipment
