That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

What is even happening?

According to the last Roto Rooter guy to whom I spoke (note: sorrel and disposals play very poorly together) very fucking little is good for disposals.
When I was a kid, my parents anti-pampered their disposals. They never had a problem. We've had two new ones. One we installed in the old house, and one we installed here. They are the most tempermental, fuss-assiest appliances. We've had a plumber out more than once, because of them.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Maybe we shouldn't talk about the Roto Rooter and Goatse guys in such close proximity...

Trust my rage

Probably. Of course I do it once a week.

I just wasn't sure if it was one of those things you should never do. We always had a filter until now. With the french press, it makes a mess to drain it into the trash.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I was so disappointed that I had to kill him.

I think. It's hard to remember.

They're doing marvellous things with CG these days.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

hangs head in shame

It's okay, I'll forgive you. On the balance, you've sent me to a lot of nice places, so it can even out.

Of course, that won't stop the nightmares tonight.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

What's the point of having a disposal, if you can't put shit down the sink?

[eta: I'm sure my parents put coffee down theirs, because they specifically made sure they bought one with bone-crushing capabilities. They put everything down there.]

What is even happening?

Okay, even the first paragraph of that wiki link was too much for me. You know, I thought it was going to be some sort of goat dish, and thought maybe the link (which I didn't click, and wasn't planning on anyhow) was a picture of a goat being slaughtered or something similar.

People are sick and need to be put down.

It looks like everyone needs this:

With an In-Sink-Erator® food waste disposal in your kitchen, chicken bones, fruit rinds, coffee grounds and more can go right in the sink - where they're virtually liquefied to safely flow into your sewage system or septic tank.

Our wings are not tired.

That would be my thought. If I used mine I would put coffee grounds in there. I hate the sound of thing so I never use it unless stuff falls in there.
