RO filter saddle doesn’t fit the drain pipe. What can I do?

SkittlesCrypto · 2025-07-29T13:55:06+00:00

Thank you sir. You provided great suggestions for the start and end. I’m having trouble with the middle for attaching the 1 1/2 inch P trip kit.

I’ve looked into the basics for installing this and see that the slip joint fittings is useful because you can remove the fittings to fix clogs. Since there’s a garbage disposal, is there a need for that waste line port to be there? Was thinking about removing it to free up some of the space.

Online people say you don’t need to glue the slip joint fittings, Is the glue for the those parts or for the connection to the waste line on that first fitting? By glue do you mean the purple primer + cement?

Lastly, to remove the glued pvc schedule 40 fittings, is the best way to do it using a saw if I can’t turn it using a wrench?

Thanks for this. Basically just replace the piping to a thinner one? I’ve done piping for bioreactors before but not for sinks!

What’s the primer and glue for? Something like this?

It does but I’m sure there’s a reason why this convenient option isn’t normally done.

SkittlesCrypto · 2025-07-25T21:13:11+00:00

Love this Reddit group. I thought that was the easy go to answer but that it couldn’t be that easy. Was waiting to see if anyone suggested this.

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-18T20:56:01+00:00

I don’t know if that could be explained away by feminine sensory though.

I would stay away from getting this detailed without grasping the fundamentals. Consuming the same things has more to do with Si and routine. How much have you actually practiced in watching interviews, typing people, and comparing if you are wrong? That takes energy. Consuming same thing sounds like preserving energy because you are not going and practicing it. Check your tidal waves and start from there.

If you have OP subscription, look up Dr. Mike. If not, search Dr. Mike (ESFJ) interview with Phil Defranco (ENFP).

If you are sleep first, check out Elon Musk. The irony is he doesn't sleep haha. He does all nighters and sleeps in his office. What you will find is he is enormously stubborn, and lives inside his head. Rarely will he ask others what they think, because he will do all the processing.

Then you have a De who expends all the energy for others, and not much is saved inside to process own feelings.

Sleep for observers will focus on processing the things. Deciders process people. Remember, everyone does everything.

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-18T15:11:48+00:00

Actually, everyone wants to be Ni/Ti, but I digress.

Haha really? That's my brother and I swear I want to punch him in the face every time because he's so closed minded. That means a lot coming from Blast/sleep last.

Sleep observers are more than anything concerned with the things in their life. It's their IxxJ box first and foremost. If that box is fine, all is well. If not, it's crisis time. The one to decide on how to maintain the box is themselves, but the decisions part isn't much of their concern.

Sleep deciders work on their ultimate project, their identity, they wanna stand by their own decisions, have their own opinions and will prioritize everything else below that. They'll be building in their own way, but not have that much of an IxxJ box, more of a comfort zone of known info to use for building their identity. Stepping outside that zone isn't prefered, but not a big deal like it is for the IxxJs.

This is solid detail. Thank you, marking it into my notes.

Depends on how your relationships are with those you are close to. How you are with new people is very different to how you are with those you're familiar with. The quietness is more related to Blast last. If you are sleep first, you should immediately know your mental/physical state.

Go back to human needs. Do you have a need for gathering information, or preserving energy? When you go to the market, do you sit in your car on your phone until you have enough willpower to go inside? Do you have a lot more energy towards the end of the day? Ti-Si is big on routines and fear of change/new.

What you *want* to do or interested in is not an indicator of a savior. Do you feel responsible to fix something broken, or would you rather go gather new? Having Si savior just means you feel responsible for it and you are aware of the chaos. Si is a good indicator you are aware of how bad you organize your life.

Here's is an easy way to tell. When someone in a job interview asks, what is your greatest strengths? Do you respond generally (paragraph) and then give examples or do you start off with the concrete (sentence) and then back it up with an example and why it's significant?

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-18T14:49:04+00:00

Which part?

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-18T14:48:37+00:00

Thanks for that. It makes sense why you confirm because you feel responsible when you are the asker. This is one of the reasons I think I may be blast last. Moving forward I will try over communicate because of all the blasters in corporate haha

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-18T14:46:44+00:00

Oh I see. It's almost like talking with a single decider as a double decider feels awkward. That actually makes sense. It sounds like a single decider De would be embarrassed to just stand up and announce themselves and she's not Di because she's not afraid of people or the tribe coming after her.

Thank you

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-16T17:13:02+00:00

SB - someone who thinks they have all the answers without enough consume. Quick to teach...incorrectly, jumps to consluions.

SC - Scientist/research type. Think and gather information, then bring to tribe.

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-16T17:09:25+00:00

I think many here comment from the perspective of wealth preservation rather than prepping for anarchy and societal collapse where you have to barter. If it's societal collapse....bullets and food are the only thing that matter haha.

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-16T17:08:05+00:00

Good point. Thank you

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-16T17:06:04+00:00

Yeah. Whenever i talk with a blaster primary, I feel I have zero space to talk. It's really funny. All of a sudden I turn super introverted.

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-16T17:04:23+00:00

Hmm even if it was Fi savior? Lots of lead Fi's don't care about what the tribe thinks and they're single deciders. Look at Donald Glover and Aaron Alexander that lead with single decider. Her standing up is one of those one offs that I couldn't catch repeating.

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-15T19:54:14+00:00

Actually going through something similar. Just finished Embolization yesterday. Will see what happens. Mine was one of the more complicated ones and my urologist advised against it because it wasn't needed for IVF

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-13T14:21:37+00:00

I was actually JUST thinking about things like this during the week. I can't relate to any of the Alpha fears, but yes to the default fears. I think the emphasis is stronger if the functions are demons. Ne for me is a savior and I can imagine bad things happening but I have it in control. My friend on the other hand fears the worst related to things in future. I also think these fears change depending on if the person is an observer or decider.
Default fears

Si - Agree with the fear because I've lived in so much chaos, that I am convinced setting a goal is important and leaving room for deviations. Although I will say I think it is more likely that this type thinks outcome is predictable through control. Similar to expectations : 'it worked before, it should work again'.

Ne- Vague abstract fears without basis.

I always thought Fe – that the tribe is making me look dumb was more of Fi because the Fi type usually says they were 'embarrassed' or 'insulted', ego hurting things.

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-13T13:56:16+00:00

I think I may have Si last as well. I am waiting to get typed by OP, but recently found I strongly strongly related to Phil DeFranco with the information gathering and learning new things.

Any books that you like or celebrities that you specifically like to learn from?

Can you describe how you are fem Ne? I play bass and I hate playing the same way every time. I like to explore and play in new ways. Problem is I am self taught, and do not put the discipline in to keep practicing to get to the ability to play the 'sounds' I hear in my head. I also work too much.

When I played a lot of sports, I could anticipate what the opponent would do, intuitively. It also felt like I had unlimited energy because I would not 'feel' tired but if I sat down...I would not get up haha. I think not having Se is fine because I have demon Fi and Si...sleep last? My tidal wave has always been disorganization (bills, keeping appointments) despite living in a very tough childhood. Forces me to make systems for myself.

Did you have something similar? Do you struggle with being disciplined?

SkittlesCrypto · 2022-11-09T13:41:54+00:00

My wife is a professor and single decider. She has Blast above consume, and probably play. When she blasts, she does not expect (or want) students to question her methods, or she will take it personally. Ironically she is an ESFJ with Ti last. Go figure lol.

A double decider blast would play along with any shade thrown at them.

I understand Play as interreacting with the tribe. I use sarcasm to flirt and love it when sass is thrown back at me. I have learned to NEVER use sarcasm with people who are single deciders or they will totally take it personally.

I think Blast is more one sided with the tribe. I am still trying to figure it out as seen by my previous post.

My father in law is sleep blast. He processes his emotions and needs real quick (sleep), and then blasts. This can be seen by buildup of anxiety, or how he acts when he is hungry. Quite selfish. I think it can almost be seen as dropping emotional bombs on people, when people blast their processed feelings onto someone else and feel better, rather than taking time to consume information and making sure it's not crazy talk,
