weak flushing toilets

I resort to using the plunger about 90% of the time and it's not like im rocking the boat here. So if I'm short on time, I have to take into consideration how long I'll have to act like a plumber to make sure I'm not late.

How about a below grade toilet that has to flush UPHILL?! It pumps the shit right out of your ass.

yes there is such a thing as upflush, but last time I checked most septic and sewer systems are also BELOW GRADE, and usually deeper much deeper than the basement of the house so gravity still applies ( I used to instal municipal sewer systems yes the guy out in the middle of your street with it all torn up from curb to curb and end to end)

At my parent's house the one toilet is in the far corner from the septic tank and consequently, has a very flat running pipe that clogs really easily...

[mrsleeve]

Snake it ??? Are we sure its too flat, as too much grade can cause the same issues. The water runs away faster than the solid's when there is too much grade and leaves it behind and can cause issues as well.....

Dickheads in upstairs apartments who don't fucking get how loud shit is to the people living beneath them.

For about the last two weeks, the fucking cockbag upstairs has been chopping firewood out on his back porch, at all hours of the day. It sounds like there's major renovation being done, it quite seriously shakes the walls in our apartment, knocks little bits of stuff off the ceiling, shakes pictures on the wall, etc. This is in addition to their giant dog bouncing off the walls, and their kid, who apparently loves nothing more than to jump off furniture and slam himself into the floor at terminal velocity.

I've already emailed the management 3 times, and also just took a video to illustrate how loud it is. I finally told them this time that if it continues, we want to move to another apartment, or want out of our lease if they refuse to take action against them.

When people call a 2002 (the BMW model) a "202".

Maybe it's a generational thing; I seem to have mostly heard old timers saying it.

Example: "I knew a guy that had a canary yellow two-oh-two. That was a great little car."

Canary yellow, that's another old timer thing to say.

When people call a 2002 (the BMW model) a "202"

I call it either an "Oh-two" or a "two-oh-oh-two," maybe they're just slurring the two "oh"s together.


Todays pissoff is how long anything takes to ship from the states to here, and how much things cost to ship anything here. It really sucks when you need a $5 connector and there's $15 shipping and it takes 3 weeks to get here. Don't even think about UPS or FedEx unless you like paying an extra 50% for some bullshit service fees.

It really adds up when you're doing a swap or turbo build and buying a bunch of swap/aftermarket parts from various places with shipping at $20-60 a pop.

That being said, I'm pumped that Blunt carries so many 24v swap bits. It was pretty much a one-stop-shop for OEM maintenance/swap bits, Condor engine mounts/ZF320 carrier bushings, silicon intake boots, etc. Only things I didn't buy there so far are clutch, brake booster, and oil pan.
:D

The MVA, which I would have gone to this coming Friday, will be closed for American Indian Heritage Day. Fu*k you Maryland State Government and budget bullshit.

Also, fix the g*ddamned roads.

When you're watching TV and your room mate walks in, sits on the couch and starts watching a video on his phone as loud as it can go, laughing even louder.

Take advantage of free domestic shipping, compiling parts from multiple vendors, then get it all shipped internationally at once.
