Johney Test is NOT suitable for anyone
I was watching an episode the other day for the first time and I was appauled by the message it is sending to our kids. This episode showed Johney wanting to watch movies with bad language in it, a pg 13 movie. His parents said he was not old enough. But he felt otherwise since he does chores in the home and so in rebellion he ran away from home. The police catch up to him and tell him they cannot punish him for running away and they then take him home and actually convince the parents instead that they should allow him to watch movies with 'bad words' or else he may end up as a run away lost forever. The parents then cave to these emotionally manipulative threats and let the child have his way. So basically it just told my kids hey...if you don't get your way, run away, there will be no consequences and your parents should give you what you want in order to stop you from acting out and the law will be on your side when you act like this. Really? I am disgusted! It's no wonder we have a world of disrespectful mouthy children shooting people and acting out and thinking nothing can happen to them. The moral decay of our country is sad. I plan to protest this cartoon as well as other shows like iCarly and such for their constant showing of teenagers kissing and making out and being totally disrespectful to adults. If anyone else agrees please contact me.

so one of my houses pipes going into the water heater decided it wanted to form a microhole
which proceded to spray across the room, hit the wall, and over the course of the night, have water flood under all the basement tiles
Woke up, went to the bathroom, then noticed there was water all over my floor
its the cities fault too, they put those pipes in a year ago
the important question
has the flooding improved your internet speed
my power went out
not sure if related
its back now
I have a picture of the setup I build as a quick fix
that I am impressed with
I have to edit out my address though
Pika built his own shack on a flood plain
so, the water tank is on the right, we had a problem that we could not get a big bucket where the water was dripping (it was actually projectile shooting, but we put Plasticine and duck tape to force it to drip). So, in order to move the drip to somewhere we could put a big bucket, I zip tied a funnel to the pipe, then taped a rubber tube to the funnel
Not in a situation to fix the pipe today
so this'll be the solution for now
"eh fuck it, let's just leave this until tomorrow"
here's a better picture of just the setup
