The Isolated Blurt Thread XXIX : So Stupid

[von_Bismarck]

No surprise that you and the other economic illiterates here don't understand the significance of that metric.

You didn't have to weigh in with stupid, but you did.

What’s this? Uhhh no, gross. Bear meat is gross, gamey. I’ve had it four times and it was bad. The bearsagna was the worst.

I have used bear, moose and venison in a cassoulet to mellow out the gamey notes.

I was with a client today and heard gurgle gurgle gurgle...went to investigate. The toilet is flooding out of the base of the toilet. Maintenance guy says too many rockers on the toilet. I didn’t even know what he meant.

He explained people sit on the pot and start to rock. I didn’t even know that was a thing.

What a mess.

I put one of those blue tid-e-bowl things in my toilet tank and the next morning all the floor tiles were blue. Turns out there's something called a toilet wax ring and evidently when my house was built the plumbing contractor didn't install one. Had to have one installed AND replace all the floor tiles.

Just seein' if you're paying attention.

Good post random, obviously Canadian poster who is totally not me!

You may be wondering how I could tell you were Canadian when you did not sprinkle a single "eh" into your post or refer to anyone as a hoser.

Well it's true it is possible that you could be located anywhere in the Upper Midwest say Wisconsin or I don't know Minneapolis or some such but I'm going to go with Canada because it's more likely that you're going to have an opportunity to shoot all three, eh?

Speaking of Canada if you should happen to find yourself in Sudbury you know who makes an excellent cassoulet? The Beef and Bird. You know over by Tim Horton there on Lorne St.? A while back what with when I used to have hair, I would stop in to the Ug Barbershop and Salon to get a trim and I kept seeing the "The Bird" or just "BeeT-Bird" as the locales call it, but hadn't eaten there.

Tell me one time I said the Mick, "ey Mick, ya ever try the beef and bird across the parking lot there, eh?"

Mick allowed that he would stop in there from time to time and he recommended the Welsh rabbit. So I stopped in for some victuals and on Pierre's recommendation, had a great little cassoulet on the menu they do there as with spring lamb. Bon appetit!

Next time I went in for a trim I thanked Mick for the tip and told him about the cassoulet. He says, "all that it's nothing you should try my sister-in-law's cassoulet. She hails from the French section of Minneapolis and they really do some great things with duck down there."

You'd been using it for how long with no wax ring? That's not athlete's foot between your toes.

They don't calls him no "Stankfoot" fo nuthin'.

Speaking of stankfoot, that reminds me of that gamey pair of mukluks that my buddy Yukon Eugene used to kick off in the fishin' shack we would set up on Bald Eagle Lake for the season. We'd bring a scoop of fatheads and use a jigging spoon or jigging rapala and get our limit of walleye and pike both before lunch.

Good tines.

I questioned this as well with my friend this morning. Maybe they’re working on a big turd?

It’s the 4th time it’s happened this year. I brought up the wax ring hotly down thing too. I don’t know...not my prob. Sure was a mess tho. I got reprimanded for not mopping.

Ain’t nobody got time for that, that’s why I threw towels on it and called the boss lady then finished with the biz at hand.

Gee, it sure is totally snowing outside

Just sitting here watching the snow fall

Wow, woke to snow this morning. Really cold snow.
#Unexpected!

How 'bout those snowplows plowing the snow of the streets??!

Snow. Yet again.

Everyone needs a hobby. Mine just happens to beat random, vague, amateur, meteorological reportage.

Your conclusion doesn't follow from the data. Try again.

Why don't you go ahead and articulate your point instead of these vague "you're wrong!" posts that you make towards all of trysails post without demonstrating the slightest understanding of anything that you're claiming is wrong.

Yeah, explain in more detail so she can find you easier.

This is more Wat's area of expertise but in my youth I made a lot better than Pocket Change filling in for my dad's handyman installing dishwashers, unclogging disposals replacing flapper valves and occasionally tightening down a rockin' terlet, there Edith. (We talk like that in Minnesota. . .I do a dead-on William H. Macy in Fargo impression!)

The down pipe curves right after it goes beneath grade. It is affixed to a closet flange. Americans don't call their toilets water closets but somehow we do have the nomenclature for what The Water Closet bolts to. (What the hell with the capitalization? Is there a book, movie, or pro wrestler named The Water Closet?)

Several things go wrong with all of that especially with modern plumbing which consists of a black abs pipe that's put together the same way you do PVC pipe with glue and that is molded into this metal ring on top that's the closet flange first of all those that connections not always solid secondly the pipe below the closet flange is supposed to be fixed and rigid and the closet flange needs to be at but probably a tiny bit or slightly below grade. Because you need some room for the wax ring but you also need some purchase so that you can send the water closet down against the tile.

I vaguely understood all of this when I converted A Tool Shed to a guest house. I made sure I sent the pipe for the closet flange and the closet flange below the concrete line and then I cemented in the broken out hole that I had made to make sure that it was good and sturdy. When I got all done I had said it a bit too low and I ended up having to use two wax rings to bridge the difference. I think they actually make thicker wax rings for that particular application but anyway you didn't need to know all this but I just thought it would be fun to annoy The Usual Suspects with one of my inimitable overly complicated explanations.

No one shimmed the toilet so it didn't rock? Maybe the floor is fucked up? $th time this year? There's a problem that has everything to do with installation.

new wax ring

Something with the wax ring had rusted out. Old plumbing, I don’t know. So it was fixed last night.

This afternoon it floods again from the base. Clean it up then would occasionally resurge with water at random times. Boss lady went next door and said their toilet pressure was super low. So as she’s over there taking a dump the toilet at work floods again.

Finally as I was leaving someone arrived with a snake to roto rooter the whole building from outside. Don’t know if the rocking toilet will be a reoccurring problem once the turd is pushed thru.
