IT ISNT EVEN CONCRETE! YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT BRITTLE, ROUGH, MOLD AND FUNGUS FARMS THAT DEGRADE IN NO LESS THAN 20 YEARS CINDER BLOCK.

BRICK, in a technical sense is concrete BUT EVEN BRICK AND MORTAR ARE INFERIOR TO A SIMPLE WELL EXECUTED CONCRETE POUR.

LAZY INCOMPETENT CONTRACTORS DECIDED TO SKIP THE CAST MAKING STAGE AND JUST STARTED GOING TO TOWN WITH SHITTY ASS BRICK AND POROUS ASS MORTER.

WAS THAT ENOUGH?!?!? NOOOOOOOOO.

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH. THEY NEEDED TO FIND A WAY TO MAKE THE BLOCK SHITTIER THAN THE BONDING AGENT SO THEY MADE....

30 straight seconds of visceral panting

DOG SHIT POLLEN ABSORBING WATER SOLUABLE FUCK ME IN THE ASS SNEEZE ON IT AND IT CRUMBLES..... ARGH..... CIIIIIIINNNNNNNDEEEEEERRRRRR BLOOOOOOCCCCCCK.

I just can't anymore... I have grown to cherish brick... who made cinder block... why?... why did they do this to me? Why did they make me not only know of but also languish in a world mostly made of... wimper... cinder block...

To be fair, brutalist buildings are fugly

I have a fairly functional form of autism, but I sometimes struggle finding balance in points of interest I get enthusiastic about, and nobody really matches my enthusiasm, even though they try. It often feels like rejection, but this post really puts it in perspective for me. I'm not always reasonable/flexible when I'm like that. Thanks for sharing.

(To give an example related to this post; I wouldn't assault someone for having a different opinion, but I could definitely debate them with a passion that's a little out of place and not as reasonable as I'd like to believe it is. "Building with concrete blocks? What is even wrong with you, where you never thought proper construction? What do you mean cheap building costs? People who want to build cheap buildings shouldn't be allowed to build anyway".

He's right though, we aren't building as sustainable as we did back then.

I do prefer brick buildings.

Anon's brother does have a point - concrete blocks and buildings made from them tend to be quite ugly in comparison to buildings made with more traditional building materials like brick, stone, or even wood

Anon's brother hates concret*

I mean, when he's right, he's right

This is honestly the first time I have ever understood this community. Thank you.

Thankfully my interests change so often I am never competent enough to ramble as long as I would like to about them.

I remember my mental spasm about sequels vs prequels, it was months long delirium. I have this kind of intense interest in finding out why something is fun to watch or play. What exactly constitutes for a good experience. What are the objective measures that we can use to decide if something is a work of art or not. Because if art is subjective then why we have famous artists at all and critics that deem some works classic?

A song was listening to used the text 'find me on Miami concrete' just as I was reading this. Hope anon's bro doesn't randomly get that.
