as for the toilet flushing, just start peeing in your back yard then when they ask why your doing that . just say to save the water for all theses flushes so I can wash my car this weekend :icon17:

it is if you live in a desert/dusty environment and it rained for a bit

Red__Zed 02-13-2014 12:20 PM

Wash your car.


If your neighbors give you grief, spray em with the hose.

See, this kind of crap is why I want to dig a moat around my property. It's also why I want to set people on fire sometimes, but I digress.

kenchan 02-13-2014 01:09 PM

they should tell tacohell to close up shop during the droughts. they're the ones causing all the unnecessary toilet flushings. :mad:

I live in Orange County too, I guess my neighbors mind their business. You're paying the bill, it's your water.

KaienZ34 02-13-2014 02:40 PM

If someone without a gun and badge told me a FVCKING thing about what I do at my house i'd spit in their face.

Water pricing is interesting; almost none of us pay the actual COST of water. Heavily subsidized.

I'd actually not lecture my neighbors; I'm also not hostile to being civically minded. I'd also not get my hackles up because someone ran their yap at me. Seems some (not the original poster) are anxious to turn this into more than it is.

KaienZ34 02-13-2014 02:53 PM

We are already told what we can and can't do so much, you have to draw the line somewhere and my house/yard is that line.

kenchan 02-13-2014 02:55 PM

waterless wash is perfect for such situation... clean car, no swinging at people, no verbal raping.

kenchan 02-13-2014 02:56 PM

and offer to clean your neighbor's cars with the system for extra cash. :D

always thinking of ways to generate money. :p

Where does the water that flows from your tap come from?

KaienZ34 02-13-2014 02:57 PM

If I want to cut my grass in my underwear while I run the sprinkles with all my doors open and the A/C running at 50* i'll do it. Last time I checked this is still America, at least for now.

Allocating a scarce resource that isn't properly priced is tricky.

Yes, it my have fallen from the sky. But the water we use typically isn't the water that fell on our property. How many of us collect rainwater and use only that water?

Ok well since you are the water doctor I guess there is no winning this. Since your so nice and like doing what others tell you to, please buy me a F.I. TT kit and have my car sent to Tony for the install and i'll give you all the water you want. :tup:

Just tell them you are using special glacial melt water that would have led to the drowning of polar bears.:tiphat:

No, you could win; I'm just a guy who likes fish.

Who said I like doing what others tell me? That's a remarkable conclusion to draw from the information in front of you, unless you are really Ms. Cleo. If you are Ms Cleo, I'd like help with my investments.

I think it is worth considering what is legal, what is reasonable, and the consequences of my decisions. I'm happy to hear my neighbors, but if their request isn't appropriate, I wouldn't do what they ask me to do. I just thought the underlying issues were interesting so I chimed in. Most of my post are worthless and a bit juvenile, so you shouldn't encounter many posts like the current one in front of you with any regularity.

KaienZ34 02-13-2014 03:31 PM

Hey it gave me something to do for a min, but I've got to go pressure wash my house. Then run ten miles.. in the shower and get this...with the water running full steam.

I love TO fish and I live less than thirty minutes from the gulf of mexico, I just like big brother or azzhat neighbors telling me what I can/should be doing.

It's all good and in good fun so no biggie. :happydance:

I agree and also take your comments in the spirit of fun and discussion, but you bring up an interesting point about fishing. I wonder what fish stocks would be like if we didn't set limits? Maybe that's a good limit?? Dunno.

KaienZ34 02-13-2014 03:47 PM

Sorry if I came off as a d1ck, stupid neighbors just hit a nerve with me. One of mine threaten to call the cops because some grass clippings from my yard got blown into the street while I was still cutting. By the wind mind you, I didn't get the blower and do it just for fun though I should have blown it into her driveway.

I hear you, man, I flipped my lid when one of my neighbors anonymously left me a note complaining about my stereo. Then I got to thinking that this might actually be a problem if turned up too loud:

I didn't turn it down (much), but I'd did do a lot of sound deadening : )

I was pissed, though.

Years back when I lived in an apartment (I know super close together) the police showed up at 1:30 in the afternoon on a saturday asking me to turn down my tv and surround sound. I said ok but how can i watch star wars with wimpy sound? He just shrugged his shoulders and said, "i understand what your saying but one of your neighbors called and complained so please just turn it down." Attachment 83844

pee on his car and be like "i am washing it for you but since my pee is 95% water I thought it would be a good conservation method"

NS370Z 02-13-2014 09:14 PM

You should mix up a bit of instant coffee with water in a clear container and when your neighbours are out ask them if you can dump your motor oil down the sewer drain.:roflpuke2:

Tell them the soap from your car wash which drains straight to the ocean helps clean up the ocean and the fish. It's like a wash for them too.

So i am gonna stop brushing/flushing/showering for a week straight so i can conserve enough water to wash my car. Perfect plan?

totally worth it.

Tell them global warming is real...Just look at all the cold days and snow all over the US. :icon14:
