You’re making spears out of extra tiles? I’ve been doing it all wrong.

I will not keep the spears.

You'd think people would at least proofread.

Of course. How will you dance the spears if there's no spears to dance with?

I always keep a spare spear as well, excellent advice my friend! 1d6 damage, and I can throw it!

I would, but I have no storage because living in a space that is suitable to my life is impossible. (and I make good money, it just isn't enough)

An extra 10% has been a pretty good rule of thumb for me in the past.

I have 4 leftover boxes of tiles by over estimating how many we'd need. Can't get rid of them on Gumtree so they'll go to the dump.

And keep the spears sharpened at all times. You never know when your enemies may invade your tiled house.

The rule of thumb is to buy 10% more than you need.

But what if you want to replace the toilet and the previous owners fucking grouted it INTO the tile AND LEFT NO EXTRA TILES. Fucking assholes.

It's the shittiest toilet too. You can't have a dick and not have it kiss underneath the rim of the seat or toilet. I'm not even big it's a shitastic toilet THATS GROUTED INTO THE TILE. WHY NOT JUST USE A TALLER WAX SEAL? WHY SHAPE THE TILE AROUND IT AND GROUT THE FUCKING THING IN??

WHY!

AND HALF OF THE TILES SOUND LIKE A XYLOPHON BECAUSE THEY LAID IT WRONG.

If you used coloured grout, caulk or silicone keep the package so you can find that specific one 10 years later. Or take a picture and email it to yourself with a decent description so the text is searchable.
Future you says thanks.

You're supposed to buy 10% more SF and return the "more than reasonable" extras.
