Good on you!
Time to put your mind to cleaning the kitchen
I had to fix mine a few months back. I took apart the pipe under the sink, went and bought new rubber washers. Got home to install them, but they didn’t fit. I returned them, 3 more times, and the man at the hardware store told me to bring the pipe to him. So, I did. Turns out, the “J” joint pipe i was trying to fit a washer in DIDN’T require one.
I still feel like an idiot for that, because not once did i try to just see if it leaked after i unclogged it….
Well hopefully you’ve caught the home repair bug. Do a thorough home walkthrough. I know you’re not a professional but that’s not what we care about. Find the pain points in your home. What are things you do every day because it’s habit and you have to that could be remedied by some time and tools? Squeaky door? Door doesn’t close because wonky hinges? Grody ass carpet could be replaced (or maybe nice hardwood underneath!)…. Make a list, start googling, buy tools, get to work.
It’s fun.
Good work.
Now check if there’s mold underneath the sink.
Not sure those shoes are OSHA approved jobsite footwear…
Good job nonetheless!
Now think of the money you saved on having a plumber do it and smile, smile, smile.
Then put your mind to tidying your kitchen.
Are those fucking Buffalo boots?!? I didn’t know they still made these and haven’t seen any since the early 2000s!
I cleaned out my dishwasher drain as it was starting to flood and I felt overly proud of myself
Congratulations, nothing like a job well done. Fixing your own stuff is a rewarding feeling.
Shoes are rad, countertops sad.
Congrats on the sink fixin!!
That’s cool, but whats west of Westeros?
May not be the typical plumbers crack but you got a plumbers crack up top. So technically a plumber fixed your sink.
Now tell us about how you removed the S bend and then immediately tipped the water out in the sink. We’ve all done it!
awesone!! question: why u wear these shoes indoors?
I learned most of the swear words I know today by helping my dad fix things around the house. Good job!

Thumbs up- good for you. Learning some basic maintenance is a great skill!
Just be careful with those ear-rings under the sink. Lots of stuff for them to get caught on.
And- I suggest eye protection as well, because getting drips in your eyes isn’t very fun. Depends on what you are working on, and whether you have to lay on your back. BTW, they are a good idea if you have to work under your car as well.
Great job! What was the cause? Awesome shoes btw. Colorful, unique, and match the fit.
It’s amazing what you can learn with youtube. I practically remodeled my whole house with YouTube.
There’s no reason to not try. Google and YouTube can give great ideas.
The thing is, once you understand the principle of how something work, you can even recreate it given you have the resources. Goodjob mate im proud of you
Great, now put your mind to solving faster-than-light space travel.
Get a haircut you hippie
Did you shave your head to channel your inner handyman?
Ma’am there’s some pipe stuck in your ear.
Now clean your kitchen
[deleted]
Like they say, dress for the job you want.
Did you use your other spacer as a washer to fix the pipe?
So are we supposed to ignore the elephant in the room?
Now clean up the mess
Hey not sure if youve noticed but you seem to have one of the pipe couplings stuck in your ear.
How many pieces of bubble gum did it take?
Why are you wearing shoes inside your house?
why’d you put the old pipe gasket in your ear?
I think a part of the sink is still in your ear.
You finally figured out how to open the childproof doors?
Well done good for you 👍
Saw a similar movie to this, girl got stuck though. /s
Pack it up fellas, they’re learning how to tighten bolts. Truly no need for us now
I just blinked today! Good job for me!
I broke my toilet trying to install a bidet☹️
And didnt get stuck!
Shoes are 🔥
