The time I tried to fix my sink with a plunger and a prayer
Last week, my kitchen sink in my apartment just stopped draining, and I panicked because my landlord is slow. I grabbed my toilet plunger, thinking 'how different can it be?' After about 15 minutes of frantic plunging, I somehow created a perfect seal and a geyser of gross water shot straight up and hit the ceiling. My roommate walked in and just said, 'Did you win?' I had to clean the ceiling and finally just used a coat hander to pull out a huge hairball. Has anyone else had a simple fix go totally wrong in a messy way?
