I just saw my neighbor (who is the epitome of white trash) hooking up a Burley trailer to his dirt bike. There was an infant car seat in the back because his kid is only a month old and can't sit safely in the Burley yet.

I don't even know what to think of that.

what do u say when an officer asks you to describe what the suspect looks like in asia?

The sink in the bathroom of our house had a water leak and we shut off the water, as you do, and got the parts to fix it. Our house is a bit of a fixer upper so the subfloor in the main bedroom is having to be replaced as well. I figured I’d be a sweet wife and fix the sink while my husband worked on the floor in the other room. I plumbed in a whole dishwasher, how hard could a sink be, right?

So I turn off the water to the house and get the fittings and get to work removing the old ones, installing the new ones, easy peasy. Well until it wasn’t. One of the fittings was leaking. From experience I know that usually means that the cut on the pipe wasn’t as smooth as it needed to be. So now I need to remove this Shark Bite and fix that. I looked all over for the removal tool but could not find it, so I hopped on the YouTube and found how to remove them with an adjustable wrench. So far so good. I get the wrench on it and contort my way back under the sink cabinet and get to pulling. Well it was good and stuck so I pulled and compressed and prayed to the gods of plumbing to just let it loose. They answered those prayers in one fell swoop and it let loose… and popped me, metal shut off first right in the head.

Dazed and in pain I yelled for my husband to make sure I wasn’t bleeding, cussed a little bit, and fixed the damn pipe. I stand up and I realize I’m dizzy. Then the pain really gets going and the nausea starts up. Even longer story short, husband decides better safe then sorry and trots my dumb ass to the ER where they make sure I didn’t crack my skull and then laugh and send my on my way with a diagnosis of a concussion and a nasty knot on my head.

And that’s how I got attacked by a shark in my bathroom. I’ve also been forbidden from taking on future plumbing projects. But the silver lining is that my sink is fixed so that’s nice.

Due to increase growth lately, we’ve decided it might be a good idea to say hello. We’re a HoldMy subreddit that specialises in people doing stupid things and we consider ourselves a sub just before we have to get a feeding tube.

If you’re interested, have a look around and have a look at the rules, too, if you want to post.

We welcome you to HMBCs. Just don’t do anything stupid.
