Why'd you use chatgpt to write an essay instead of what could've been a single tweet?

The most ridiculous thing is asking AI to generate a full-page dramatic essay from an ordinary job video and then expecting someone to read it. Unclogged Toilet Drama - now in bookstores.

@IndyBeginsAt220 Flush half a cup of copper sulfate down the toilet twice a year will prevent this. Kills the roots in the pipe, but doesn't harm trees or bushes. I've been doing it for years with my septic tank.

That's insane! Nature turning your sewer into its own underground fortress ๐ Backhoe for plumbing problems is next-level. Mine was just hair clogs... so far. How long until the trees win? ๐ช ๐ณ

Trees within 20 feet of a house are the Devil.

If you have a lot of big forest trees on your property, periodically dump a cup of rock salt into a toilet and flush it. You can get it in big bags in the winter (well in northern states you can). This will keep the roots out of your house drain line.

I thought it was the world's largest hair-clog

Itโs tree roots guys, not hair. ๐คฎ

It fascinates me. I cleared a house drainpipe from the roof gutter years ago after heavy rain - got hold of a massive smelly wet mud/leaf snake of decay that came tumbling down, & then UP & out of the soakaway. Knocked me off my feet, spattered me with rotten egg stink juice. It was great!

Trees are meant to be in a forest not around your home, as tall as they are is a long as the roots are under your house "Most tree roots exist in the top 12โ18 inches of soil, spreading laterally 2โ3 times the diameter of the canopy, or even 1.5 to 8 times the dripline"

Clearly connected to my wifeโs shower drain

I had the same issue 3 years ago, albeit not quite that severe. I had the clay jointed pipe replaced with full PVC, $8k later, my drain works GREAT! No need to worry about roots ever again either.

Iโm glad to see he got to the root of the problem.

Itโs like pick your nose and getting that long one out LOL

This happens a lot with the old orangeburg pipe....

itโs spelled plumbing

The meaning of Plumming is degradation of a silver photographic image.

@AllieJade1 This is how people get โ ๏ธ on a job site. No shoring and materials hanging over the edge of the hole.

Man you gotta knack for storytelling it seems lol. Made this even more interesting. Cheers! ๐ฅ

One hell of a root turd

Una rata enorme muerta ๐ญ ๐ฐ๐๐คฎ๐คข!!! The great mousse dead!!!

Poop root

I do wish I had your creative writing ability if you wrote this and didnโt use AI

Reminds me of the days of OxyContin

That looks very similar to what's in peoples veins who took the covid vaccine ๐
