Watching 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here' on ITV. It's hilarious.

So my dishwasher has been making a grumbling noise that has gotten progressively louder. When my dad stayed with me for my lap in Jan, I asked him to take a look at it. In the 4 days of doing nothing around the house for me (he's usually Mr. Fix It All), he never got around to it... So last month, it started making another noise in addition to the awful one. All of a sudden, he's interested. Drives the 2.5 hours to see me, disconnect the thing, and take it home to work on it. He brought the motor into work, gave it a complete once-over, and said he found a part that was rubbing on another part, problem solved, right? So after Thanksgiving with my Grandma, he stops at my house on the way up to reinstall the thing. He's all proud of himself and we start it up for a test run. And the thing is still loud as hell, still grumbling (although the other noise was gone).
We got into a huge shouting match about it (he said I didn't tell him it was making TWO noises, but I said I told him multiple times about BOTH noises, which I did). He stormed out, I kicked the thing, all in all, it wasn't a good situation. This this has been driving me CRAZY, but I can't afford a new one and I have such a tiny sink and almost no counter space so washing by hand is a pain.
Here's the funny part. I go online today to look for a new motor, thinking I can just replace it myself. Until I come across a website where one guy mentions the same noise. His fix? There's a part that rattles and needs to be secured. Two $0.02 zip ties later and the dishwasher is quiet as can be. That dishwasher has logged at least 400 miles, had at least 3 hours of time spent on it, caused me to raise my voice louder than it has been in a loooong time, and the fix took not even 2 minutes...

Nice! lol, I love easy solutions like that. I did that with a toaster once. It kept popping the toast up as soon as you pushed it down, so it wouldn't toast. My parents wanted to buy a new one, but I turned it upside down, inserted a toothpick between the side and a metal clasp, and turned it back over, and its been working ever since (8 years later we still have toast!)

Well, I didn't really think anyone else would find it that funny, but my Dad and I sure had a good chuckle... (Nice work with the toaster, btw!)

Karen that's pretty funny. I work in IT and sometimes something doesn't work.........you spend an hour so pulling it to pieces, thinking of all the complicated things that could go wrong with it and eventually realise the damn thing wasn't even plugged in in the first place.......

My mom and I heard "Stuck in the Middle With You" on the radio, today, singing the whole song, and pointing to each other with the "clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right" lyrics. She was the clown, I was the joker. We're retarded. And that's what made me LOL. There were several other things, though. That's just one of many, just in 3 hours. We just crack each other up.

My bestest GF of 24yrs and i went shopping today with her not so quiet 3yr old son. He is the most adorable 3 year old around and we decided to go for lunch and the service was horrible. It took the waitress 15min just to take our order. When our lunch FINALLY came, my 3yr old nephew looked at the lady and said "its about time, what, did you have to go catch the fish?". Apparently we are a little to open with our talk around him.
I laughed so hard i almost spit my diet coke all over the place

I have 2 cute cats, the female is very cute and small and prissy, a bit of snooty lady. So it took us years to get her to warm to us and become a part of the household, and now she chirrups anmd rolls around with the best of em. One morning I woke and she was laying at the foot of my bed, I told her good morning, and she stretched, chirruped and then rolled over. Off the bed. Luckily I caught her (she doesn't always land right) but when I did, a little liquid bit of poo came out of her ladylike bum and landed on my arm. Worse still, she sniffed it and ran away hell for leather. We have nicknamed her 'chocolate drops'. She is a repeat offender...

I had to put in the stars as the censor thing amended it to very *friendly* person ;D

ok...LOL of my day
I woke up this morning and did what i usually first thing, look at Brad. Well, there is my 31yr old husband sucking his thumb. Not just resting his thumb in his mouth but sucking away at it like a baby would do. I laughed sooo hard. I woke him up and asked what he had been dreaming about. He said he couldnt remember so i told him that he was sucking his thumb. His response.."you've just noticed that? Ive been doing that in my sleep my whole life". Just goes to show that men really are the true babies.
