What if the concern wasn’t that he would have to use a disgusting bathroom, but rather that he takes horrible shits and didn’t want someone to know?
I mean, I’d certainly be embarrassed to have to tell the internet something like “I’m visiting my in-laws for a few days, and I really want them to like me. The problem is that I shit like a farm animal, and they only have one bathroom.”
It was more the lack of an explanation that hooked people, rather than just the not pooping - IIRC, we never ended up getting any real explanation for why this guy needed to not poop for a week.
It was honestly pretty great, people came up with everything from “he’s smuggling himself internationally in a shipping container” to “he’s determined to be the winner in a really weird Mr Beast video” to “he’s giving up on society to live with the sloths” before it started to turn into kind of a circle-jerk.
And of course, suggestions for stopping the poop included butt plugs, eating only cheese, butt plugs, a liquid diet, and more butt plugs.
Unfortunately, no… I’ve seen one of those things, and they’re honestly kind of scary to stumble across in the wild. They’re huge, and they can swim.
I do agree that this picture looks weird, but I think it’s just a weird picture. The spider is hanging backwards, with his belly facing upwards (that little nubbin at the back of the abdomen usually angles down), but the way that he’s lifting his head to bite the turtle makes it look like his body is facing the other way. As for the ripples, it looks like he’s lifted the turtle high enough that we’re getting a shot of them without the water directly below them. The ripples look like they’re probably relatively calm water 5-10ft behind the spider, which is why they don’t match up with the action in the photo.
Actually though, can we get some malicious compliance? Schools banning the Bible based on rules written by Christian conservatives would be hilarious.
“We have considered several excerpts, and deemed this book unfit for schools. The book opens with everybody naked, and goes on to feature violence on a massive scale, as well as some weird incest, and a man who collected two hundred foreskins. Frankly, we believe that this book should have never been on the shelves here at Li’l Tykes Elementary.”
I always assumed the same… Turns out, a wastewater plant and treatment plant for drinking water look a lot more alike than I thought.
I’m pretty sure you could drink it, you’d just want to do it far enough away that you don’t have to think about where it came from.
It sounds like you’re probably good.
The slope itself shouldn’t matter as long as the drain hole at the bottom of the sink is still higher than the drain hole in the wall. You can also angle the p-trap itself a little bit, but it still needs to be able to hold enough water in the bottom to block the pipe.
That is amazing.
Best we had was some idiot who thought he could get away with smoking in the bathroom like the jocks in an 80’s movie… Someone walked in, and he threw his cigarette butt in the trash can, where it started to smolder.
A lot.
All told, it was a pretty boring fire. No real damage, but the school was closed for a couple of days while they cleaned up the soot.
In a way, it feels like we worked backwards to “cooking.” I’ve heard “cooking with gas” for ages, but just “cooking” feels more recent.
Tbf, they’re kind of the same thing, but at different levels of speed/intensity.
If your friend is working on something and they’re in the zone, they’re cooking like a trendy zoomer. If they’re absolutely plowing through whatever project they’re working on, then they’re cooking with gas like a crusty gen-x-er.
Their math was flawed, but I’m not really sure how to explain the math part better. I get what they were going for, though.
It’s closer to decimal divisions of an inch, so a .223 caliber bullet would be a hair shy of a quarter of an inch (.25) wide.
Edit: just realized you had the second part of that already
Some of them do… Or at least, they did - I mostly remember seeing it when I was in high school, and it sort of faded out when I was in college. Not sure if it fell out of style, or if it’s only a thing with the Hot Topic/mall goth crowd
Edit: uncorrected an accidental autocorrect
Even for those who don’t build their identity around their job, a lot of folks are just used to having something to do.
I work in retail, and I’ve had a surprising number of old folks ask if we have any part time jobs available - they’re not looking for steady paycheck, they’re looking for something to do two or three days a week. Even if your job isn’t necessarily who you are, it’s still a reason to get out of the house.
So, uh… We have the same thermostat at my job. It’s not great. You can’t just tell it what temperature you want the room to be, you actually have to tell it if you want it to heat or cool to that temperature.
Yours is set set to 65, but if you look to the left of the current temp, it says “heat.” Someone likely forgot to change that when the weather warmed up. IIRC, one of the three unlabeled middle buttons will fix that.
