The plumber arrived and seemed bent on saving Gary money, which of course goes against everything Gary stands for.
- Instead of replacing the entire bathroom faucet, he fixed what we have. I am elated about this.
- Instead of replacing the entire kitchen faucet, he suggested we just buy a new nozzle for what we have. I am elated about this.
- Instead of cleaning out our drains, he said we should run water in the tub every month or so, and keep using the specialized drain fly cleaner, but you know what really works? Bleach. BLEEEEEEEEEAAAAACH. I am elated about this.
- He did clean out Gary’s drain, which was probably stopped up because of all the emollients Gary uses on his skin. I am indifferent on this topic.
- From nowhere he volunteered that the best thing for killing gnats and drain flies is the electric flyswatters they have out now.
- In the same vein, he says you can buy a Harry Potter style flame-throwing wand. This horrifies me.
