I thought this was one of those threads that talk about PIN numbers and NIC cards.

But you're actually being serious when you call it a "hot water heater" aren't you.


Trust me, the irony isn't lost on me.

That was one of the most polite and efficient phone conversations I've ever had. Someone is on their way.

Thanks DeadFuzzyKittens and Jaxtrble for trying to help me feel like a dutiful husband. And thanks Shalome for being the voice of reason. Oh, and incorrigible thanks you as well, for keeping me from doing something stupid.




The gas company kinda rocks.


For serious. Their hold music made it almost bearable.

This is what happens when you put cold water in a hot water heater.

Yeah...just like right now...had to run turn off the water and call the plumber (since it's a rental and the landlord doesn't pay me labor when I do repairs).

Actually it's a pipe near the outside faucet that the Landlord decided to attempt to repair himself (before I lived here) with expoxy.

Ask them if, once they're done doing their thing, they can arrange for some kind of terrible explosion. If only because the experience so far has been wonderful, and you'd hate to miss out on that part just because you decided not to do it yourself.

Haha, this happened again! I now live upstairs in the same building. Of course, now I know how to get a pilot lit. Then, a few days later, the water heater completely shit the bed and was replaced. Just like downstairs!

On the plus side, the management company, though still the same, is much more understanding and easy to deal with.

And I don't call it a hot water heater anymore...
