  And the bidet’s right there.

  Good thinking.

    Damn and my kitchen faucet comes with a “power wash” mode. I can’t wait to blast boiling hot water up my butthole. 🤤

      It would literally have cost you nothing not to write that sentence down… but here we are

    And the sink strainer is there to save and repurpose the corn.

  Which brings up a good point; why would anyone need a plunger for a sink? If it gets clogged, nothing will help you short of a drain snake. And if you’re kitchen sink is getting clogged, it’s time to invest in a garbage disposal.

    Plungers certainly do help with sinks. Loosens up a partial clog easily in my experience.

      Especially in combination with soda, vinegar and hot water.

        Soda and vinegar is an odd combination. Soda is a base, making water alkali. Vinegar is an acid, making water acidic. Together, they make water neutral again, with a lot of pretty bubbles.

        Either one can work really well depending on the stuff you need to get rid of. But adding one to the other just weakens it.

        Mix in some red food coloring and you’ve got yourself a good time

      So weird. It always seems to pump air through the overflow and do no good. By the time you figure out how to plug the overflow, you might as well have taken off the trap and emptied it in the trash

        Many sinks do not have overflow drains.

        I just put my hand over the hole, takes two seconds. And I don’t have to clear out under the sink and get a bucket. (And it’s only very rarely necessary)

    I’ve found a plunger useful for a sink occasionally, a bit of back and forth plunging can loosen up a hairball or break a layer of fat/soap scum. On the other hand I’ve never needed to use a plunger on a toilet - Australian toilets don’t seem to have anywhere near the amount of issues the American designs do.
