LOLWOMEN, the thread.
Studs are always 16 inches apart. If you don't have a stud finder, you can always find studs at the corner of a wall or a door frame or window frame, and then measure out 16 inches to the find the next one, etc. This is at least almost always the case, but sometimes you find door frames that roughed in by home owners or meth addict framers and your studs are all over the fucking place. When in doubt, buy a stud finder, or say fuck it, and knock on the wall to reassure yourself a stud is there. Once you've picked your studs, make sure you're not drilling on level with a light switch or power outlet to minimize the risk of hitting a line. Pilot drill holes where your mounting bolts are going to go. Make sure your holes are level. Many mounting brackets come with a lame little bubble level that you can use to mark where your second to fourth holes are going to go after you've done your first. If not, use a measuring tape to measure from the floor. If your drill meets with no resistance after the width of the drywall, congratulations, you missed the stud, try again. If it meets with a lot of resistance, you might have hit something you shouldn't have, like a power line or a water pipe. Hopefully that doesn't happen. Once that's done, place the bracket over your newly piloted holes and ratchet your bolts in. Assemble the rest of the mount according to instructions.
oh god, the OP fits perfectly
