Well, crap. The current map shows that now Tropical Storm Nate may be heading more directly at NOLA.

This is why you use a stud finder and make sure every bolt (not screw) hits one.

When I put my wall mount up, I made sure I could nearly do pull-ups with it before putting the TV up.

They make toggle bolts that can support over 100 lbs each in 1/2" drywall. If studs are difficult to hit, those make a good alternative.

But this looks more like they glued the mount or something, as the drywall broke right around the footprint of the mount. If they just used screws or wimpy anchors into the drywall, the drywall wouldn't have broken.

We've been together for over 10 years. We may not have a piece of paper from the city hall keepin' us tried and true, but we're married in every other way. Common Law Marriage isn't on the books in MN anymore, but if it were...

Well yeah, I knew you had a long-time partner.
The word 'wife' had me thinking you two had gone down to city hall and got that piece of paper.

You better not be misfiling your taxes. *scowl*

You can see the screws at the corners, which is why the drywall broke out like it did.
