Comment on I am not a builder… but that does not seem right
sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day agoI had a semi related, IRL, Bethesda style enviornmental story telling ‘event’ involving a wall happen once.
Back in college… I wasn’t actually in this one fraternity, but was friends with almost all the guys in it, was good friends with the core group that restarted its local chapter that had been dormant for like a decadenor two.
So one day, its video games and beer, and … well, this one room needed to be renovated, so we didn’t give a fuck. One guy loses at Smash Bros, fucking fist through the wall.
… After he walks back a bit, we notice… wait wtf there’s something… on the frame…?
We tear out more of the wall, and no shit, there is a miniature time capsule in the form of a note saying basically 'Cheers to any future (fraternity name)‘s, from the class of 1982!’ … and there is also a fucking can of Rainier … from 1982.
So the dude who initially Donkey Kong’d the wall gets dibs on the 30+ year old stale beer of course, downs it immediately.
… The funny part is that this was always supposed to have been a dry fraternity, no alcohol allowed.

I hope you put a can of beer back in there with a note before you sealed it back up.

If I remember right, that is exactly what happened.
Though I wasn’t there on the last day of renovsting that room, I think it was the guy who uh, did the initial demo work on the wall, who did exactly as you describe, along with the original piece of paper, which was now preserved in … either a ziploc bag, or vacuum sealed as you’d do with some meat you’d want to preserve for freezing.
