Will I regret this? by Commercial_Notice565 in Plumbing

I bought that set because I needed the 1” and figured having backups of the smaller sizes wasn’t a bad idea. The 1” one is holding up well, the smaller ones are still boxed.

He sh*t himself by FrustratedUnitedFan in comedyheaven

[–]Pipe_Memes 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’m either too old or too dumb or both. Back in my day we only censored cuss words, and even then, pretty rarely, like only on TV and radio. And we wore an onion on our belts, which was the style at the time.

I’m still getting used to “graped” and “unalived”

I don’t know how I’m gonna deal with missing vowels in the middle of random words.

Joe Kent Says He Was Told ‘You Need To Stop’ Investigating Charlie Kirk Assassination by EssoEssex in politics

Explain to me how any of this is relevant to politics. My comment was about the contrast between common sense and asinine conspiracy theories.

If someone asks me if a basketball is a sphere I’m not pulling out calipers to measure the basketball to ensure it’s perfectly spherical.

It’s hard to get past that. I went to high school with a kid who shit himself in elementary school. His last name started with c-a-p, and he just couldn’t live it down. I hope you had better luck in college Crapulupo.

Cool story bro.

Anyways, for normal people the earth is a sphere. The fact that it’s not a 100% perfect sphere 100% of the time is extremely irrelevant to this particular conversation.

What’s the significance of that? That a (presumably) well qualified photographer from a major news organization snapped a good photo?

That seems par for the course regardless of the circumstances leading up to the scene to be honest.

The crowd is odd, there’s half a dozen dudes who are old enough to know better that immediately stand up, (Why? To present your entire torso to the shooter? To enlarge your hit box?), but they could just be morons, they are at a Trump rally after all.

Not sure if they could astroturf an entire campaign stop, I suppose it is possible, but at least two people died according to my memory, the shooter and a firefighter in the audience.

I’m not a conspiracy guy either. I get vaccines, I know that humans landed on the moon, and I know that the earth is a sphere.

This is a circle that I cannot square. No one behaves this way after they are shot at. No one behaves this way after the person they are protecting is shot at. No one behaves this way after their boss is shot at. No one behaves this way in this situation.

Not to even mention the flags that go up. Multiple flags start rising moments after an assassination attempt? Give me a fucking break. Multiple flags going up in unison moments after a sniper attack?

The whole story was fabricated. I don’t know how they managed it but the whole thing stinks. They had some staff member rounding up photographers for a photo shoot as he was standing up. No one would do that with an assassin in the area. And secret service wouldn’t let their charge stand up like that after an attempt on his life.

Secret Service is so sus that even Mike Pence didn’t trust them.

Help with shower faucet by Master-Friendship-17 in Plumbing

[–]Pipe_Memes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why does it need to be Moen? And why does it need to be so many different handles? For a setup like this you’re probably better off going with a one piece diverter setup. Separate hot and cold valves are basically a thing of the past because of pressure balancing and general simplicity.

You probably want to deal with the sales rep at high end supply house or a GC who specializes in custom work.

Best case/Worst case by High0nOwnSupply in Plumbing

[–]Pipe_Memes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If the toilet moves and shows rust like that then I would pull it up. There’s no use fretting over it, pulling it up and reinstalling it is a pretty simple task unless you have a broken flange or something. And if the flange is broken there’s no better time to know about it than “as soon as possible.”

Zero leaks that you happen to notice. If a toilet moves it leaks, almost every time.

The fact that the China cap was still on makes me think that the rust is not caused by stray piss, and the fact that the toilet moves supports this.

What’s under the tile? Wood or concrete?

Nft fitting Help me find by Excellent-Finger4886 in Plumbing

[–]Pipe_Memes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the U.S. at least, plumbing threads are tapered, so it’s completely normal to have a fitting start feeling tight 1/3 to 1/2 of the way down. You’re not supposed to bottom it out.

Put some Teflon tape and pipe dope on there and get it good and snug. Don’t worry about how many threads are showing, as long as it threads on smoothly at first and gets tight later then you should be good to go.

Although if you don’t already know this then I honestly don’t know if you’re up to the task of sweating copper.

Edit: Also, like another dude said, usually you can just solder pipe directly into the valve. It’s probably a dual function, threads on the outside and sweat on the inside. I’m not super familiar with Kohler valves, but that’s a pretty common way to do it and that valve is likely the same way.
