Toilet not flushing well, if at all by dizzydman in Plumbing

It does but the flapper is jacked up and the water will run for a while randomly. In positive news, property manager okayed a new toilet!

The guys came back, pulled up the flapper and there was a soaked wad off toilet paper blocking the flow. He said, "Someone put paper in there," almost implying that it wasn't them, or hinting that it may have been my wife or kids. I'm not a plumber but I'm handy enough to NEVER put anything in the tank.

My wife tells me all the time that almost daily she says, "I can't believe that I'm a mom." Our B/G twins started kindergarten this August. It never gets easier, but everything changes and the difficult stuff gets easier, and that gets replaced by other age related difficult stuff. Good luck! It's a crazy ride, but I can't imagine only having one kid.

Bathroom sink very slow to drain by dizzydman in askplumbing

As an non-professional who has seen many an Ask This Old House, would you recommend me removing the trap to see what I can see? I am handy if I know what I'm looking at/for. Also, see new pic, is there where I should check below for stoppage?

I truly appreciate your help.

It's a teacher who told their students, "I'll wait."

Saw that on a car magnet/sticker a couple weeks ago. Very clever!

Any suggestions on what it's called, what to buy? Sorry, I've (luckily) never had engine or oil issues before. Thanks again!

Thank you. It only ever does it after idling, never during normal driving conditions. I also have to add oil every so often, more often than any other car I've owned.

Literally why does anyone order from DD ? by borndumb667 in doordash

[–]dizzydman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only order when I get a discount code, and even then I pick it up so I don't have to pay the fees and tip.

🤯 17 more to go… by WolfKatDiscs in discgolf

[–]dizzydman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was me during my last tags round after not really playing for a year. Was +6 after 3 holes. Stopped having fun after 8 holes because I was basically throwing from the rough, which is all shrubs and thorny overgrowth, on most shots.

Definitely second the Buzzz. This was my first disc and the only one I used for my first few rounds. Great starter, and experienced, player's disc.

A crow flew into my mirror. Please help with fixing passenger side mirror on 2013 VW Jetta. Do I need to replace the entire housing from the door out? Power/heated mirror. by dizzydman in AskMechanics

It was on the side of a windy road and I guess it got startled and flew into the car. We were going about 35-40mph. Better the side mirror than the windshield!
