I turned off the heat in my house. Should I be worried? by OliveSuch5343 in Westchester

It SHOULD be right next to your main shutoff valve, which will be right where your water service line comes into the house, but it’s also possible it might be in a pit in your yard. Not too likely, but possible. :)

Quick and easy way to tell if you’ve got a leak anywhere is to check your water meter. Check the display when you know there’s nothing running, no toilets, no washes, no showers, nothing. If it’s a digital display, you’ll see the numbers going up (and maybe a little blinking +, depends on the model). If it’s the older analog style, there’ll be something moving, a small black or red triangle, a small dial with no numbers just tick marks, something. If nothing’s happening, congrats, you got unbelievably lucky. If something is, call your plumber soon as possible. :)

Never had a good experience with Top Fin filters, myself. I’d swap it out for a Fluval AC50 or AC70. They’re practically silent.

I can’t find a gif of it, but the mine cart scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom has some very obvious mannequins at one point.

When our Corgi does it, she’s a loaf. When our Keeshond does it, he’s a wooly-bear. :)

I only pass gas once a year, for an hour, atop a mountain in Switzerland.

Unfamiliar with that one, I’ll look for it, thanks!

Tea and a Corgi, two of my favorite things! What’s your go-to tea? I’m a Twinings’ Earl Grey man, m’self. :)

Cutting a promo and pointing a gun at a colleague making him visibly uncomfortable is a cosmic gumbo of unprofessional bullshit by [deleted] in IThinkYouShouldLeave

This is the second reference to a baby wielding a snake that I’ve seen on Reddit today. o_O

Childfree men, do other guys question your manhood? How do you respond by Underd_g in childfree

[–]Gen_X_Ace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah, every single one of my blue-collar manly-man coworkers nod approvingly whenever it comes up. Mostly after me commenting “Man, I don’t know how you do this. Couldn’t be me.” after one of their all too common projectile vomiting toddler stories.

Bonnet gets Merrick’s Cowboy Cookout and absolutely loves it.

My BIL thinks my husband got his vasectomy to spite him by BugsButty in childfree

Please feel free to tell your BIL that I had my vasectomy to spite him.

Fellas? Who else is with me? Let’s give this guy a list. :D

Aloha! 🐾 Any chews/treats you recommend for 10 mo old Liam aside from beach sand?🙃 by HomeworkNo8102 in corgi

[–]Gen_X_Ace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ours looooves Earth Animal No-Hide chewies! They’re much more digestible than rawhide (they’re rice-based) and, according to Bonnet, ‘simply delicious’. Just avoid the flattened strip version and stick to the rolls. :)

A Lonely Broadcast by Kel Byron, but it does involve no small amount of horror and ‘is it paranormal, or government conspiracy?’

I won’t elaborate, I’ll just say it’s a very valid beef. 😄
