  1. I know! But we can't get @Gugny to even remember to face the faucet, you think He's going to remember "invariant right-hand rule?"
  2. Everybody knows to face the faucet straight on except @Gugny and a few of his sympathizers. I guess that's why this thread was created. Simple things that people can't understand. What the hell is he doing, giving the hose bibb a reach around?
  3. You are all just a bunch of idiots. There. It's said. /thread.
  4. Marco! Just between you & me, we should keep this under our Stetsons. I won't confirm this yes or no, but you are getting close with your ideas. Not necessarily those places you mentioned, we aren't just in the canal business. POLO!
  5. It is. Same thing, both can be used interchangeably. Less pollution, cleaner water... Generally better environment than we have been accustomed to be living in. Harder freezes are associated with global warming. I know, hard to believe right? Harder freezes lead to more water retention in Great Lakes. Why are people so negative? The environment is getting better for us in general here in the US. Why the constant "revolution" that the sky is falling? Wolf always at the door? We will leave things better for our children than our parents left it for us. Now... Other parts of the world, I am not so sure. IMO, we need to fix what we are doing there.
  6. They have guns in Canada?
  7. Look out, Mama, there's a white boat coming up the river, with a big red beacon and a flag and a man on the rail I think you'd better call John 'cause it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail And it's less than a mile away I hope they didn't come to stay It's got numbers on the side and a gun, and it's making big waves Daddy's gone, my brother's out hunting in the mountains Big John's been drinking since the river took Emmy Lou So the powers that be left me here to do all the thinking And I just turned twenty-two I was wondering what to do And the closer they got, The more those feelings grew Daddy's rifle in my hand felt reassuring He told me, 'Red means run, Son, numbers add up to nothing' But when that first shot hit the dock, I saw it coming Raised the rifle to my eye Never stopped to wonder why Then I saw black and my face flash in the sky Shelter me from the powder and the finger Cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger Just think of me as one you never figured, to fade away so young with so much left undone Remember me to my love I know I'll miss her
  8. Sorry to turn all Carrie Nation on your azzes... LMAO but:
  9. Treesweet was a brand of orange juice. OJ advertised for them: [NOT allowed to embed] https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pfLGXMSmk_k
  10. With your back to the wall. Who does that weird ****! You and @Gugny obviously! /smh No doubt facing away from faucet or to the side. Screwy. No pun intended! It's why you get confused with the process. Good order, consistency is next to Godliness.
  11. People have a real problem with this simple concept... Of course I don't: "May" and "Can" No **** Sherlock... Now you just confounded @Gugny even more. Faucets are righty tighty, lefty loosy... Including the hose bibb. Nobody puts the hose on with their back to the wall except @Gugny Holy carp! Now he will mandate backs to the wall like he demands people use the gay British word: whilst.
  12. Or the turntable stops and goes the other direction. Not sure what kinda of microwave @sherpa has. It's pretty random on some microwaves. Then there are always these:

  14. Ward is now disqualified. He was a little hard on the Beaver last night! Sign of the times... 2019, how the mighty fall!!!
  15. Let's find common ground. That's a sillcock AND it looks like a "frost free" sillcock (the guts of valve may be 10" to 24" in pipe, IE: in heated structure) WITH a hose bibb (the threaded parted where you attach the hose). Right-handed threads of course. Righty-tighty, lefty loosy. LoL...
  16. In the pic it shows a vacuum breaker attached (shot on right). That gets attached just like a hose. So... To attach: You turn your hand CLOCKwise OR, righty tighty. To detach: You turn your hand COUNTERclockwise OR, lefty loosy. They are right-handed threads!!! The faucet is near the sill plate of a structure, why they also call a hose bibb a "sillcock." What are you 6 inches tall? And even so, you're still turning same way. Unless your back is to wall... Which it shouldn't be, what I am saying holds true. Righty tighty, lefty loosy. You define this thread! The quintessential subject the OP oppines his sorry story for! LMAO!!!
  17. What planet do you live on! Looking straight at this... You turn righty tighty to put on, clockwise. Lefty loosy to take off, counterclockwise. Holy Moly, your back ain't suppose to be to the wall! They are right handed threads:
  18. No offense taken. It's actually a compliment and points to your deficiency. The OP's topic is highlighting "operator error." Or: P.I.C.N.I.C. Problem In Chair Not In Computer. The deficiency falls on the person who simply can't handle the simplest of concepts. Notice, I don't have any? IE: The problem is you and or others. HINT: That's not something to brag about. In this world:
  19. LakeEvaporation I stand corrected. Winter is critical too:
  20. I just walked outside. Look straight at it. Clockwise is right, tighten Counterclockwise is left and off.
  21. ???? What the heck kinda hose bibbs do you have. Looking at it, it's righty tighty.
  22. Did you see her talk today on ABC... Enough to make me go to the Dark Side Conservative.
  23. The fuss about Asian carp. Boondoggles wicked confuse me. So simple. But so confusing!
  24. This is untrue. I'd look for the teacher that did this AND DID NOT pork out. But... I am too lazy. "Somebody give me a cheesebuger!" https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jyV41-tFPcQ Not sure why I can't get videos and pics, links to embed anymore. I used to.
