And now, for our next contestant on the Question of Pain, with your host Swampyyyyy Bottoms!
Vacca Rabite, what sits about 735 feet above the sea, but is currently full of water? Gee Swampy, lemme think about that one. Oh, I know. Is it "My House?" Thats RIGHT! Jimbob, tell the poor sap what he's won! Well Swampy, Mr Rabite has won a burst radiator. On the top floor of his house. Its been pumping out hot water at 20PSI for many hours now. He will get to enjoy water cascading beautifully out of all of his recessed light fixtures on the floor directly below his new burst radiator. He gets a new in house pool in his basement. He will also get to enjoy looking at new cracks in his ceiling and walls. All this sounds great, but there is more. Mr Rabite will get to spend the rest of the night pulling up sopping wet carpet and foam, while trying to stave off mold. And if you thought that was enough, just wait to hear what else he's won. Mr Rabite will get to replace his computer, DSLR, several lenses, his brand new HD video camera, and his cell phone. And last, but not least, he'll get to deal with insurance adjusters! Jimbob, those are some great prizes. Vacca, what do you think of all the loot you get here tonight. ....... Um. This game show blows. Whe-he-hell... Everybody come on back next week for another exciting edition of The Question of PAIN! Brought to you by the Awesome Squad! Paid for by USAA. |

Wow... That truly sucks...
And I can TOTALLY empathise with you. This evening, while at a super bowl party, just at the end of halftime, my wife calls and says "help! the washing machine is flooding the house!!!"... I was outta there so fast... Got home, found the downstairs room dripping wet, false tile ceiling had already collapsed from the soaking. Carpet soaked, garage soaked (car is at a friends shop right now...), the upstairs wasn't much better... The laundry room had an inch of standing water (that which didn't flow downstairs), it hadd soaked through to the adjacent rooms... Wife called a company she had handle her clients water flood. Mistake... They're just carpet cleaners... Didn't know that 'till they got here at 9:30pm... Good gravy. I said, start what you gotta do now, and I'll be calling a contractor or someone else who handles this kind of thing for everything else. Yeah, the carpet's up, the pads are gone, and they're about to spray biocide, so I'm outta here... Off to the mom in-law's. Pregnant wife and 3 year old are there now. Wow, this so sucks. Any suggestions from those in the professional "know" would be dramatically appreciated. Crap! And I still haven't seen the second half!!! -Josh2 |
