An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I was the one that took the photo, the other fella holding the crowbar was my assistant.
The radiator won't be going in today, but you gotta start somewhere, and a partly wrecked front end surely wasn't getting it..
This is on the verge of being too interesting for the dull man's club xD
No no, it only gets interesting when you mess up and let the crowbar go...
Please don't ban me officer 🥺
My man needs a tirfor jack or a mechanical winch. Of course, the dull gentleman uses the tools at hand though.
You can skip the part where someone gets a crowbar in the face, trip to the ER, 24 stitches and other exciting events like that. Just tell us what the weather was like when you went to buy your 5th pack of painkillers.
LOL, I definitely had my concerns as well, hence the need for an assistant. When I took the photo, there wasn't much stress on the chain and crowbar, we had already bent that top support rail back out almost perfectly straight, so I could let go for a bit to take a couple photos before unwinding it.
Yes, this looks very sus. Maybe dull for a 40 yo mechanic, but not so much for a 20 yo office clerk.
Guilty as charged, I'm 42, and this qualifies as just another dull day in a junkyard to me.
