Mandatory Overload - Bee - 10-09-2008
Gotta vent, once again.
Not five minutes ago, I was trying to hook the neighbor's water heater into ours, so that my showers would no longer be ice fucking cold. It's not illegal, as both houses are on the same waterline, and both water heaters are in the same place. Oh, and the neighbor's place is now vacant. No one using the hot water, so I figured I could use it.
Well, after ghetto-rigging a hose to the two tanks, I tried to find the cutoff valve to our hotwater tank. There was none. So, I thought, 'fuck it', and I turned the drain on to our tank.
My crotch got hit with a blast of ice cold water, along with the back end of my car. The car doesn't care, but I do.
I now have a very large spot on my crotch, which looks like I pissed myself. My (BRAND NEW) cordless drill is soaked, and I'm on the verge of beating that water heater with a sledgehammer.
I need to vent.
..and I'm pretty sure I won't be seeing my balls anytime soon.

Um your rigging a water pipe...... Ok. Why didnt you just call the plumber to fix the problem? Other than that i am sorry for the luck.
RE: Mandatory Overload - Bee - 10-09-2008
LACK OF FUNDS.
And it's not a plumbing problem. Its a 'haven't been able to pay the gas bill problem', which leads right back to the lack of funds.
RE: Mandatory Overload - RyanCruey - 10-09-2008
Im sorry. But the resession that where going in probley wont help either. Tax is going to sky rocket up. Yeah we got alot of issues.
RE: Mandatory Overload - Bee - 10-09-2008
Oh, yeah. It doesn't help that the slumlord(I will NEVER, EVER, call him a landlord) doesn't do anything other than collect rent.
That asshole doesn't even mow the lawn, or do upkeep on his properties.
RE: Mandatory Overload - MagusKnight - 10-09-2008
The vent thing to your crocth is your fault...and most lower-class landlords don't do upkeep shit.
RE: Mandatory Overload - The Reclaimer - 10-09-2008
Which is why he called him a slumlord.
Shit sucks man, did you at least manage to get the hot water out of it?
RE: Mandatory Overload - Bee - 10-09-2008
Nope. No hot water. Which is why I try and prolong the time between showers(oh, get over it), as long as I can.
Very cold showers aren't fun.
RE: Mandatory Overload - The Reclaimer - 10-10-2008
No, no they aren't. Sorry man.
