No Good Deed Goes Unconfused

Here we go again with the 45-degree sewer pipes! Just when I thought I had gotten to the bottom of the sewer issue that Hick's buddy was having-under his house, Hick re-opened that can of worms on Tuesday evening.

"Well, I did my good deed for the day."

"Um... are you going to explain?"

"I fixed my buddy's sewer pipes. He had sewage running out under his house. I told him I was worried about him and his wife breathing in that stuff."

"So you replaced the 90-degree angles with 135-degree angles using the 45 elbows?"

"No. I took out the 90-degree angles."

"How did you do that? Just run the pipes straight?"

"No. You don't understand nothin' about how water flows!"

"How could you take out the 90-degree angles?"

"Val. There was six of the 90-degree angles. I took out four of them."

"So you didn't need those 45 elbows you were carrying on about?"

"Yes. I used them."

"You just said you didn't!"

"I put them in last week. They're not under the house. They run off the back of the house."

"The 135-degree angles made with the 45 elbows?"

"Whatever. Nobody ever calls them that."

"Yet I am technically correct."

"Let me draw you a picture--"

"NOOO! I don't care! I don't need a picture. Just saying that your mistake was in calling the elbows 45-degree angles. That's it! Done!"

"You never can understand a drawing."

"No. Not from you. WAIT! Why are you walking around the kitchen? Weren't you crawling around in poop under the house?"

"We put a tarp down. So I wasn't actually in the poop. And I sent Old Buddy under the house. But I AM on my way to take a shower."

Good to know.
