Plumbing helps us maintain hygiene; clean water goes inside the house, soiled water goes out. Plumbing systems have been around as far back as the Roman times with their aqueducts and their... O~kay, I'll stop here else I suddenly give out a lecture.

Anyways, being a plumber could possibly be one of the worst jobs ever. Imagine yourself peeking under sinks and detaching p-traps to remove whatever icky stuff that got stuck inside whenever people accidentally rinsed something down their pipes that would block the flow of waste water. But that's not the worst of it yet. We still have the toilets, don't we?

Yes, those contraptions we use to rid ourselves of fecal matter called water closets. Where do those pipes lead to? Right. The sewers. Or to your individual septic tanks. And who methodically arranges these pipes, in and out of the house, to help in our daily sanitation and to prevent backflows of soiled water from clean water? That's right. The plumbers.

Gross job but someone has to do it. And I can't believe I'm going to be one of them, learning how to replace pipes and faucets and... stuff.

So please, whenever you get sick, in the toilet, not on the sink. Toilet pipes can accommodate solid particles and you can just flush it all down and forget that it ever happened. But solid stuff on sinks stay inside your p-trap (that thing that's shaped like a J under your lavatory). And it's gross.

So in conclusion, I say this...

Damn you, Mario Brothers! You make it seem so easy!!!

That was fun.

I'm sorry for the delay. I'm such a lazy person.
