Chat's The Meaning Of Life.

Bbads clearly looks like the one I rather install

And it is a better name brand.

 

the thing i posted is just the fill valve though,,,her kit has the other flush valve and tank seals and tank bolts

 

Figures. I was thinking it was like comparing Apple to pc. Apple all fits together easy while pc fits anything but with more difficulty.

 

Looks like a sprinkler, not something from the back of the toilet. Lol. I don't even know what's in the back of my toilet at the moment. I will have to go check it out.

For awhile I couldn't get my toilet to flush consistently. Well that just sucks so I called the management at my apartment and they sent a guy out to snake the toilet a couple of times. I finally had to tell them that all this snaking wasn't fixing the problem, so they replaced the whole toilet! It's so water efficient it's hard to believe, so I wouldn't be surprised if I find out it has one of SpaceMan Spiff's gadgets in the back.

 

I'm just glad I don't have to replace the wax ring at the floor!

 

its a worse job when its not your own toilet

 

the last one i did would leak at the floor when flushed....old cast iron pipes had so much corrosion inside they were like the arteries of an 80 year old who ate bacon everyday


the seal was bad though...and the damn flange wasnt even bolted to the floor ...the old plumber had just rolled the lead liner over and that was all that was holding the flange that the toilet bolts to

so now the new owners bought the place with bad pipes but at least the floor wasnt getting wet...and i screwed down the flange to that rotten floor best i could


changing those pipes would be a complete nightmare

 

And..... I'm hoping I don't have to do that in the second bathroom here. They are in the slab.

 

the cat was just on the table batting my glass chess set onto the floor.

 

Hubby and I are on a 30 minute break he imposed, "so that the rubber gasket could flatten out" before I tighten the screws all the way.

Yes, it is usually maddening.

 

i laughed

 

advertising has gotten out of control. the people that make ads and commercials ought to be shot!

 

:toilet: Finally, I have a working toilet in my bathroom.

Ads and commercials don't usually bother me (I'm able to tune out a lot). However, I am sick to damn death of erectile dysfunction and feminine hygiene advertising during prime-time. The sick and abused animal commercials make me want to shoot the people that come up with that crap, especially since I am all too aware that about 1 or 2 cents out of a dollar (if that much) go to the cause they pretend to help.

Never saw anything like it.

 

My grandmother had a push mower that didn't have a motor...you just pushed these curvy blades set in the mower "body". But a kid couldn't get it going. I remember my uncle had to push it....I'd love to be able to give it a go now.

One day it just wasn't there. He probably took it. lol

 

My daddy had an old mower like that, Lynn.

We kids never cut grass with it but we use to get it out and run around the barn lot with it because...we could.

 

We had one laying around somewhere. But we didn't cut the lawn too often because the landlord did it most of the time.
