Well, I got perhaps a bit cocky after my garbage disposal success...
Decided to replace our kitchen faucet and did not anticipate that the seemingly easy job would be made more difficult that inventing the warp drive by a mounting nut rusted so badly that it basically fused to the threads.
8 hours, bruised hands, "damnit Ari you're calling a fucking plumber or else, random assaults with power tools, and finally my dad swinging by with a hacksaw later, and there will be no living with me now.
Also shoutout to my dad who is so (a) devoted to helping his kids and (b) responsible for my reflexive scoffing at "are you sure you can do this, maybe we should just pay someone to do it?" that he drove over from the burbs to help even though he has two broken fingers.
@halfcocked @AriCohn Most people I know who work on a sink drink tequila (but they're all Arizonans, so who knows?)
@Dimestorehalo @AriCohn He knows how to work on a sink, that man drinks bourbon.
