Garbage

Salut!

Just when I think I've already seen the shittiest shit that revit can shit out - someone sends me something that is almost spectacular in its resemblance to a dumpster fire.

It's a six story storage facility - so 99% of it is just corridors, and apparently the only direction the architect gave to his Reviteers was 'make this look as amateurish as humanly possible'.  Since modeling over 1,000 storage units wasn't really feasible, they apparently modeled one of each and then attempted to copy/paste them throughout the building, resulting in... well... garbage.

I set about cleaning it up (and once I start, I can't just leave it 'so-so' - it's going to be as close to perfect as humanly possible when I'm done), then opened the electrical drawings.  The pathetic bullshit I was looking at damn near made the architectural drawings look like a work of art.  They were apparently going for a 'minimalist' approach to drawing it - but instead it ended up 'incomprehensible'.

I actually almost felt bad for both the revitard that layed it out, and the engineer who thought it was worthy of putting his signature on.  My only hope is that they were the low bid, and decided to half-ass it (and/or they were forced to use revit, and said 'fuck it'), because if this is what they considered 'good work', then they need to be taken out behind the woodshed and beaten relentlessly.

On the other hand, if I were an electrical contractor attempting to install based on these drawings, beatings wouldn't suffice - at least one limb would have to be severed from each person responsible.

Then, today, I actually received a set of drawings that someone from my old firm Revited up - and holy goddamned fuck does this shit look retarded.  For some reason they left hatching on to show the floor throughout their plans (as if someone might make the mistake that empty space might be misinterpreted as the building had an infinitely deep hole inside the building envelope).

They managed to set it light enough to keep their drawings from being totally illegible in the .pdf set, but it comes in as the same color as the walls/etc. when they exported it out to CAD (which they did - one sheet at a time, each in it's own .zip file for some weird reason).  It also suffers from the classic problem of not having one set of titleblock information throughout the set - so the cover sheet for the entire set of drawings has the title in all-caps, while the electrical sheets are in lower-case, and many of them have overlapping letters (and even inexplicable misspellings/additional letters).

Their attempt at laying out fire alarm equipment is truly amateurish - it literally hurts to look at it.  Many of the symbols got fucked up when they exported it too - meaning I will have to spend extra time deciphering what the fuck they were intending to show.  The only up side is that I get to laugh at what a shit show that place turned into both while I was still there, and after I left.

They've got the Revit dick so embedded in their eye sockets that it's just whipping them around the room and ejaculating onto their shriveled brain stems (as their brains themselves withered away a long time ago) and they pray for death to free them.

Death will not be the end though - anyone willingly accepting that Revit dick is going to spend an eternity in a lake of poorly developed Revit families, while suffering the pain of millions of view range settings consuming their flesh.

As always - fuck Revit, fuck Autodesk, fuck amateurish attempts at Reviting and/or engineering, and if you don't like it - FUCK YOU.

Au revoir,

Le Ccrâne Merde
