lichés -- Phrases your parents
and grandparents always say: Let’s roll up our sleeves and get to work. It’s
more than the law allows. It was like a zoo in there.
It usually takes an amateur three trips to Home Depot
in order to solve a plumbing problem because at first you are not really sure
what happens. And you have to ask the guy and then you buy parts and take them
to your house and the parts don’t fit right so you go back to Home Depot with
the old rusty parts and show the guy then he gives you the right parts and you
go back and make some progress but then you realize you need another part.
Parts are expensive. So I finally get the right parts and get it done after
about four hours and a lot of language I can’t repeat.
In
the article “Tempermental Toilets” by Rap Ed Flush, there are descriptions of
how an amateur fixes leaky toilets.
