    I have done enough drywall work to know that I hate drywall work.

    The people who built the house, I now live in, had no clue how to tape and bed seams or corners. The ceiling was so bad I tore it out and did pine tongue 'n groove in it's place. Thinking about doing the same to the walls.

    In the 1960's we called that paneling

    Anyone under the age of 40 remember the thin paneling used to finish basement walls? Those were some dark rooms.

    I just removed all that paneling in my basement. It did brighten the room a lot!

    If I'm ever at a party and the cops come to arrest people. Ill blindfold myself, throw the ball gag in, handcuff my hands, and hide in a closet. Police never arrest hostages!

    I remember paneling quit well. Our living room was covered in it, when I was a kid.

    This was TnG. Really.

    Call me crazy, but I like paneled basements. Gives it more of a cozy man cave feel.
