Going Overboard?
Sorry, this post is really random. I was watching t.v when -KABAAM!- I was suddenly reminded of something that happened awhile back.
I thought I should tell you that my dad is very strange. Very intelligent. But very strange. He tends to think [shall I say] too big for the situation at hand. My dad is like, the crazy professor type. Most of the time, he's off with the fairies thinking up formulas to convert particle motion into wave motion and making up reasons for why time travel cannot exist (or some such).
Obviously, big-thinking tends to be a dominant personality trait in crazy professors (like my Ba). Unfortunately for me, this way of thinking doesn't exactly enable him to keep within the confines and practicalities of daily life. What would my daddy do without me *shakes head*.
Anyway, I was thinking about the time my dad tried to clean the toilet with a high pressure water cleaner. Obviously he doesn't clean toilets often. Picture this: Water traveling at a extremely high speed into a tiny toilet bowl. What do you think you get? You guessed correctly,
the answer is: water...EVERYWHERE.
He actually thought this method would WORK. I had to point out to him that, "HELLO? Relative to the size of a car, our toilet is tiny and WHAT IS THE POINT OF CLEANING THE BLOODY THING ANYWAY IF ALL OF THE WATER IN THE TOILET ENDS UP OUT OF THE TOILET!?!?!?"
*sigh*
Guess who had to mop up?
Love,
Mel
Pee.ess - Cleaning water off the ceiling whilst leaning over a toilet is never any fun. Especially if you drop your phone in. Despite popular belief, mobile phones and water are NOT actually compatible. Mobile phones, water and a turbo-speed washing machine is even worse. Just ask my mum, she knows all about it.
