'Never Leave Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Why didn't they check her lines for a blockage after the first freakin' flood? It only takes an hour or so to unseat a toilet and check for blockages in it and the line.
Because her toilet was flushing, so obviously there was no problem. If it had been our house, I promise they would have been made to check, but she apparently just took their word for it.
Dana, how awful. I'm sorry you're going through this. Ugh.
Dana? I am still facepalming all over the place about your neighbor.
In all fairness, I don't think that I would have insisted that they check for blockage if the toilet was flushing.

Oy. She deserves stinky stuff for her stupidity. I'm just sorry she got some of your stuff, too.
Heh.
In Switzerland, it doesn’t take much to be in a Gucci ad campaign. You photograph yourself naked, add a perfume bottle and the Gucci logo, send it to a weekly paper, and have them bill Gucci directly for the $50,000. They’ll fall for it every time. Naturally, this is now the top story at a rival newspaper.
It helps to look like a model, though.

Ditto here. Though I've learned that upper story apartments are the way to go plumbing wise, as it's the ground floor units that everything backs up into.
Dana, I'd agree with Vortex. At least, once a little time and distance had set in.
Because, with that sort of thing, you need someone to scream at. And it's either the neighbor or the workers who were there (and didn't catch the block) yesterday.

You can usually tell if the flushing is sort of slow. With us, we didn't have a full blockage, and no flooding. As soon as I saw the flush wasn't working 100%, I had DH snaking the toilet. It takes hardly any effort to snake a line and that can usually clear a minor blockage or at least tell you if there is a major blockage.
It was unseating our toilet that found the yellow submarine tub toy.
I think a friend of ours also had to call a plumber after a playdate with us at her house. But since she also has a 3 year old and a 1 year old, I'm choosing to blame one of her kids.
At least you can blame the kids, Cash. Mom accidentally flushed a thing of deoderant. In unseating the toilet, the bowl broke. So they had to get a whole new toilet, which is vastly inferior because of its lowflowness.
