I just installed a toilet - handyman corner
 

contrary to the 1st one i did a couple of month ago that just about drove me to a homicidal range ...


this one went in in about 30 minutes.

sweeeeeet



so i know you girls are into pretty skinny fem-boys with long silken hair with pre-ripped hip hugging designer jeans....


but what about an overweight middle aged balding guy who's handy around the house ?

the line forms to the right


:D

CONGRATULATIONS FOR BEING SHORT FAT AND BALDING ...
oh and I forgot the handyman bit. :D

That's 1 thing that is just AWESOME about the internet. If I need to do a repair and have no idea how to do it, a simple google search will provide a wealth of how-to info on any subject. I've fixed my refrigerator, a toilet tank and replaced a car hood on my own without any previous knowledge as to how I was going to do it before I looked it up online. Next on my 'honey do' list is fixing the garbage disposal but I've been dragging my feet on that one.

i have to admit - the toilet was so damn easy i barely looked at the instructions - let alone the internet ..

most household jobs arent too difficult - unless the previous owners fucked it up before you leaving you nice little expensive suprises like land mines.

very true....I fixed a dryer and a washer using google. Saved a bunch of $$$$$

installing a toilet isnt too hard, changing the pipes under the toilet was a pain.

Just replacing something is easy enough, but I use google a lot to troubleshoot my problems. Once I figure out what the problems, I figure out how to repair it.

For instance, my freezer kept icing up and dripping in to my fridge. I learned over the net that my drainage line was probably clogged, then learned that to fix it I needed to thaw out the whole unit and run a coat hanger down the tube to clear the blockage. Worked like a charm.


The toilet would sorta flush but the water wouldn't empty all the way out, just swirl around a bit. I figured out I needed a new pump in the tank, what kind would be most effective and how to install it. (It probably would have been easier to replace the whole toilet though. It was a pain in the ass.)

The internet has turned me into a regular Mr. Fix it.

bless uncle google


I depend on uncle google for many of my fuck ups.

I tried to change the head on my shower..it seemed simple enough

i never realised that every shower head have different attatchments.

I used to work as a toilet builder. Would sit in an empty apartment all day building toilets, and the installers were the ones who had to get their hands dirty by removing to the old ranky ones and installing the new ones.

I miss that job. I had my CD player there, jamming to Black Sabbath.

Have you developed the infamous "plumbers crack" yet? ;)

Who said he's short? Have you seen any of his pictures?
