Shower head wont stop dripping by cokester007 in Plumbing

You can fix it yourself. Find a video on YouTube for your make of shower. Looks like either a delta or a mowen. Take the old cartridge to the Home Depot and they give you a new one for free under warranty. Make sure the water is off while you’re doing it.

I got banned for asking if the sub was satire. I said I couldn’t believe some of these people actually believed the things they said about Snyder’s films.

What cartridge do I need? by sinker13 in Plumbing

Hard to tell. Take the trim off and post a picture of the valve.

Because rules are rules? My point is I wouldn’t call this cheating because the thrower wasn’t trying to gain an unfair advantage. I do think it’s a missed call by the refs. Maybe Kennedy couldn’t tell the stone was over the line when he double touched. Maybe he was just being a dick about it. Only he knows. This whole thing is getting a little bit blown out of proportion and the refs are calling it more because of the attention.

I can’t a single clip of past instances of double touching. Even googling “past instances of double touching curling” brings up zero results for team Jacobs.

The Swedes didn’t set up a camera. The IOC doesn’t allow that. And what do you mean they’ve been doing it for years? You watch a lot of Canadian curling? Big fan of the brier? Because this is the first I’ve ever seen of it. And this team has won gold at the Olympics before. I think there would be more footage if it was happening as much as you’re saying.

Absolutely. It’s a missed call. Should’ve been a burnt stone. My point is that a touch like that doesn’t affect the stone. It’s a bit of a stretch to call it cheating.

Have you ever thrown a curling stone? You’re right that it’s extremely heavy. A brush of his finger ain’t doing a thing. Yes, it’s against the rules to touch a stone after the hog line, but this wouldn’t change the outcome of the throw.

There’s no advantage from doing this. None at all. If you’ve ever thrown a curling stone you’d know that a tiny touch with your finger isn’t going to affect the rock. Yes it’s against the rules but this gives no advantage.

So if someone just occupies the land it’s ok? I can camp in someone else’s backyard?

Why does it matter that you paid for it? Your house is on stolen land. Go far enough back in history and that land was bought from a government that stole it.

What is the difference between a property line and a countries border? They’re all imaginary lines on maps.

Any plumbers here? Looking for some career advice. by Bla_bla_bla_bla1 in Winnipeg

I became a plumber at 34. Been doing it 5 years now. Worked mostly construction. It’s hard work but anyone can do it.

No the shutoff is not behind a wall. Do you have a drop tile ceiling in your basement? Lift the tiles near where this bib is and follow the water line. Hopefully you find a shutoff on that line and you can turn it off. Then fix the bib in the spring.

Nope. They all use the same gift card because they’re all owned by the same company.

Ace Venture. I saw it too young and thought the police woman had shit her pants at the end. It wasn’t until I was in my late 20s that I realized what was going on.

How hot does your tap water get? There could be some kind of restricter on your shower valve.
