My hot water heater has died! 
Sorry, just needed to vent.
Be careful Carol, those things are ticking time bombs. They can go through a two-storey building like it wasnât even there! Provided that you have disabled all the safety features, ofc. And this too, you learned first from Mythbusters!
At least it died in July rather than January. I had one die on me in the dead of winter⌠not fun at all. My condolences, and I hope you have hot water again soon.
Cold water is nice though, in the summer I always take cold showers. lol Like a mountain man.
I hate taking a cold shower, donât care how hot it is. Washing dishes with cold water doesnât cut it either. I feel for you 
Sounds like you could write a song about it and play it on your uke!
Mine did about 2 years ago. It made quite a mess of the basement! Took opportunity from crisis and upgraded to a tankless-on demand type. Huge energy savings! Also no more risk of flooding the basement, at least not from the HWH.
wth is a hot water heater. If you have hot water it doesnât need to be heated up. I bought a new 59 gal WATER HEATER this week also. my 28 year old WATER HEATER died this week. yea I know my mom always saidâŚâeverybody likes a piece of ass but nobody likes a smart assâ.
my antifreeze hose burst in my car and the hood was pouring smoke
cold showers always suck but man one winter my water heater went out and it really sucked because I was working in a kitchen at the time and there was no way I was not going to shower everyday till the thing got fixed.
bob, i work in a kitchen and if that had happened it would have been old fashioned pots of boiled water on the stove, in winter, at least. lol
My parents came from a small village in the Azores that didnât get electricity until a year after they moved to Canada and boiling pots of water is how they took their baths. If that happened to me they would remind me of this and tell me to stop complaining.
I donâ't have any pots I can fit in. Nah the shower at this place was fine the tub not so fine. I didnât really fit very easily in it.
My toilet needs replacing. The damn thing cost a fortune as its a Victorian repro, but the working parts are all garbage and have just rotted. Crap in eevery sense.
when in Qatar I went without running water for about two weeks, and people acted like âwhat are you making such a big deal about? You can just go wash up anywhere. Go to the shop across the street.â I had to stay on top of it for the whole time and finally the guy showed up with a water truck acting like I was just being a spoiled brat. âThereâs no water, thereâs no water, ehh??â AND I WAS PAYING FOR IT! Glad to be back in the States, where the water flows and the snuff comes from Scotland in tins.(instead of making my own.)
The only bummer is that I had to work today, but itâs almost over.
I have nothing to report, sir!
The bummer of my day today was that I couldnât find my favourite milk chocolate nougat creme cookies anywhere. Jack needs his cookie ;_;
had a blowout in my '74 ford. funny thing is these are some tuff trucks, all steel and all. did a mess to the tire didnât do anything to the truck.
Had a blowout at 80 mph while driving our E150 conversion vans with the whole family (wife and 3 kids) inside. In coming back from the beach traffic, in the fast lane, and a front tire, it was a pucker moment for sure. And some advice to everyone having a daily bummer, like I tell my kids, smile at every thunderstorm. Ken
Had to take my wife to the ER last night because of Afib in her heart. She is still in the ER waiting for a ICCU room in the hospital.
