I'm actually a fair way from a river, like at least half an hour.

Toilet water is literally right there. If it was good enough for Steve Jobs, then it's good enough for you.

I have to pay for my toilet water.

Pro tip: When pouring, hold your socks over the toilet. The water will spill through the socks, right back into the toilet - and you don't have to pay anything!

Me carrying the toilet to the other bathroom where my wife is sitting on the toilet: here, hold my socks like this.

[–] prettybunnys@piefed.social 8 points 4 weeks ago

Her sitting on the toilet is probably a really good bracing stance so the amount of toilet water you can force through your socks will be much higher.

This is smart.

But then I'd have to drink sock water.

We all have to make sacrifices

It's still free, though.

[–] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Not quick though

Geologically speaking, it's the blink of an eye.

True, but so is the time between the invention of socks and this post.

That's just not a practical timeframe for getting your feet wet.

Hey, no rocking my shaky narrative! You're not supposed to notice my impracticalities!

I tried that exact argument in court once. Still got convicted for the theft of that cathedral 🤷

[–] naticus@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (1 children)

I have questions:

  1. What was your purpose with this cathedral?
  2. Were you caught in the act or was there any kind of man hunt?
  3. Using the Nokia 3310 as the unit of measurement, how tall was this cathedral?
[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 weeks ago
  1. Nefarious
  2. Neither. The chief constable stumbled unto it while out walking his miniature Schnauzer and I was sleeping on the altar at the time.
  3. Roughly 700, I'd say. It was a biggie for sure.
