Got it replaced. Side of the old disposal had a crack in the housing. It was only 15 years old. Just don't make them like they used to.

Waited like 20 seconds for the hot water to arrive in the bathroom sink.

That would seem like forever. How were able to tolerate such a long wait?

Intolerable. Searching undersink water heaters to end this suffering, 2 day shipping, great more waiting. Thank goodness the game was paused or would of had to wait while the DVR backed up.

I too have suffered this chilling discovery. Before showering I crank up the hot water, walk to the fridge (clothing optional ) and grab my shower beer. Water is perfect when I get back.

That beer needs a shower cap so it doesn't get watered down. Or if you want to be stylish you could use one of these. Mine's similar but it's a viking helm...

 

[actaeon277]

My shower is on the opposite side of the house from the water heater.
And the pipes go through outer walls.
So, I turn on the shower water, and walk away. Gotta heat up the cold pipes.

Worst problem, sometimes I forget, until all the hot water is gone.

Shower Beer?


Why have I never heard of this wonder of evolution before?

The shower beer is a shift workers dream. After midnights a shower and beer are like heaven on earth. Hammer a couple more and off to sleep

Couldnt think of a better place for this. I just paid like $10 for 2 pieces of edible chocolate.


I hadnt had a Whitmans sampler in literal decades. I recall they were chock full of various cremes, nougats, toffees, etc. LOTS of chocolate in that box, as they were loaded like those dutch sugar cookie tins; each type in a little paper muffin cup, all cups crammed in side by side to keep them all in place.

I was shopping with the fam and saw a box and bought one for nostalgia. Instead of being full, it only had two layers, with 10 pieces per layer. WTF? Instead of the paper cups, there was an injection molded tray with a cup for each flavor, each piece an inch or two from the other. Its borderline criminally deceptive. I think the box weighed more than the actual chocolate.

And out of all the flavors, I really only liked 1. So the rest were either eaten by the kids or put in the trash.

So dont waste your $$.

Never did care for those. Out of all the chocolates (even before they got skimpy) I'd only like maybe 1 or 2 types. The rest were just nasty. Give me Reese's cups any day.

They were good back in the day. Last time we bought a box was the last time I'll buy a box.

My wife is bugging me about what I want for Christmas and can't believe I want what I wanted last year. Nothing. I have everything I want, and if I do want something I'm an adult and will go buy it.

I'm in the same boat, but the kids and grandson will be at our house for Christmas, so the wife says we all have to have something to unwrap. I guess to show the grandson how it's done. She wasn't amused when I told her socks and underwear. So I tell her a certain Dan Wesson, and she was even less amused. Go figure .

Ask for one of these..

She'll think the Wesson is a deal.
And, the Wesson is less maintenance.

It’s so hard to do donuts in an AWD. (but not impossible)
