Bubble, Bubble, toilet Trouble As

Bubble, Bubble, toilet Trouble

As a testimony to what extent I'm pretty much a happy go lucky guy, consider the following:

Just over a month ago, I became aware that the toilet I use was not properly swirling my bodily refuse into the sewage land of nevermore. In other words, "It warn't flushing right." It goes through the initial motions, twirls lazily around the bowl, but its turd sucking proficiency leaves much to be desired. I discovered, however, that if I fill a pail of water, and pour it into the tank as the flush commences, the toilet will consent to the entire flush, with authority. Anything not nailed or glued to the bowl will be sucked powerfully down the chute. So, I've been doing this for just over a month; carrying a full bucket of water into the bathroom with me each time I have to shit. To other people, this would be viewed as an inconvenience. To me, it's just an extra flushing step. Still, the roomie/landlord should get it fixed. It just ain't right.

I Just Don't See the

I Just Don't See the Appeal

Requiem is about four people addicted to drugs. One is
an older widow addicted to diet pills/speed. her
loneliness and comments about why she gets up in the
morning are scary and true and what you hope you can
think and what you never want to think ever.
Her son is a heroin addict. When he visits her it
breaks my heart.
He and his girlfriend and their friend are trying to
get more heroin, obviously.
I can't explain it, Ryan. It's so sexy and dirty and
gross and wrong and fast fast fast it's like being
face to face with the dirt and really liking it if
that makes any sense. i wrote this essay one time in
college about an acid trip and that's what this
reminds me of. it reminds me of that hot oily sweat
you sweat on drugs and the hot oily things you do and
i missed it. god i missed it. it made me clench my
teeth the whole time, the whole movie.
please please watch it.
