The Sink

<Opens up bathroom door>
Me: WHOA! Did you poop? Holy…
Him: No! Why?
Me: Uh, then something is horribly wrong because… well, come smell.
<Enters bathroom, takes a whiff>
Him: Ooooooh, yeah. Well, the plumbing for the sink is attached, but the water isn’t on, and so, since the fan was on, and the door was closed, the fan essentially sucked the lovely aroma of our septic straight into the bathroom.
Me: Dear God, our house is now awash in our poop fumes… I don’t know if I’ve ever felt so unclean.

The good news, folks, is that the sink is now functional, so no more living in a fart. If you encounter any issues down the line, remember that calling a plumber is your best option.

And let me tell you, it is one aggressive sink. The vanity is aggressively tall. The sink bowl aggressively large. The pop drain aggressively oversized. Even the water goes down the pipes aggressively.

Hey, we’re aggressively large people, so it’s only fitting. Pictures of the full project forthcoming…

What he said:

I don’t mean to suggest that Romney is without compassion. I believe, for instance, that he loves his wife and his children, and that he believes in God and the flag. But there is something in his character that I am starting to get frightened about, an unwillingness, or an inability, to feel remorse, to simply own up to a moral failing, to apologize not just if “somebody was hurt” but because you know, deep down, that you hurt someone.

Think about it: here are these half dozen men who took part in a savage act nearly fifty years ago. It has haunted all of them. And the ringleader, the guy who made the plan and led the mob and cut the victim’s hair off remembers … nothing?

It’s just bullshit, total fucking sociopathic bullshit. And it makes me sad that such an episode comes to light and all Romney can do—a guy who wants to be elected to our highest office—is nervously lie and make excuses, as if this were political problem. It’s not a political problem. It’s a moral problem. It’s a sin he committed for which any believer would seek atonement.

Can I be this boss when I grow up? No? Okay, fine.

At least my girls can be all hip and now if they ever need eye wear. Trés bombe, indeed.
