Hotel and Apartment Pipe (Poop) Question

How do hotel and Apartment sewage pipes connect between rooms?

So there my toilet right. Its pipe width is whatever is normal. Does it connect to a bigger diameter pipe?

I'm assuming all the individual rooms poop pipes empty to the same big poop pipe.

If I make an extra big deposit at the poop bank and my neighbor does the same, but I flush just a few seconds before my neighbor, could my poop collide with theirs and clog their toilet?

Is the big central highway poop pipe always full of water?

Sorry for all the questions. I'm counting on you my pipe people

Edit: Oh yeah different floors. Does each floors big poop pipe empty to the same vertical poop pipe?

If I take a poop (in a toilet) on top of floor of a skyscraper, how fast does my poop plummet to the earth?

What would your pokemon gym theme be?

You're a big shot trainer going to open your own gym. What will your theme be?

Personally, I'd go with a haunted house for the gym. Fake ghost pokemon props giving ppl jump scares, mixed in with real pokemon. Except all my pokemon would be fighting type pokemon dressed up like ghost type pokemon.

Ash: "Haha oh what a jump scare! That's a really fake looking Gengar puppet."

"Oh now that one looks more like a Gengar."

Hitmonchamp uses Mega Punch. It's super effective. Ash gains concussion.

Meal Replacement Drink Suggestions?

Any meal replacement drinks y'all would recommend? New meds make food less appealing and harder to eat. I want something quick and easy with decent nutrition to chug for breakfast or lunch.

Side note, do y'all hate researching stuff on the slopnet as much as I do? I used to enjoy researching stuff on the internet but now idk what I can trust. My answer is you kind nerdy internet strangers 🙏

Hey Lemmy! What is your most beloved and hated British slang?

My most beloved British slang is Knackered. Fucking knackered! It means very tired, exhausted. But those terms are sterlized of feeling, of life. You know that feeling after you finish moving? That total fucking exhaustion, you're knackered my friend. I can't think of a word that feels more accurate to the state of reality it describes. Knackered is a fucking gift.

Chuffed. If youre chuffed i believe that means your excited. I hate it but not for real good reasons. It sounds like a bad thing. Like i don't want to be chuffed from the sound of it. It sounds like i chafed my lungs from sighing too much cuz I'm miserable.

Ok now for the linguistic crime known as snog or snogging. It means to make out or tongue kiss someone. But it sounds like a fucking sex act involving noses. And not a normal sex act. A fucking depraved dirty sex act, you'd feel shame even googling, but again it involves noses. And honestly it sounds like snot is likely involved with this sex act. Do better Britain stop saying fucking snogged you dirty bastards.

What would be your farttone?

You can choose a new sound or sound(s) to make when you fart. The sound can't be quieter than your fart would otherwise be. Nor can it be shorter than your fart would otherwise be.

What would be your farttone?

Some of my ideas Owen Wilson's "Wow". The scream from that one disturbed song. The entire audio of the Bee movie.

Edit 1. 18 more of you commented than updooted. "No judgement", I say while judging you...

What ya nerds set your thermostats to?

I've been meaning to ask this for a while. I saw a comment a month or so ago. Person said they keep their thermostat at like 65 in the winter and 78 in the summer. 78 seems fucking insane to me. That's too damn hot for inside. How do you sleep at 78 degrees?

Are they a lizard person or am I a baby?

Edit 1: I love all the comments on this! Never thought this post would create such discussion. Looking at the comments vs upvotes it honestly seems 50/50ish that 78 is hot for the indoors. Can lemmy do polls?

Holiday Deck Bath

I spilt some water on my deck earlier today. Mainly on the screen and touch pad and joystick. I'm a little worried some may have gotten into the vent on top. I dried it off ASAP. I powered it off and stuck it in some rice.

The screen didn't glitch or anything which I think is a good sign. Anyone want to guess how screwed is my deck?

Edit: Thank you all for the advice! I took it out of the rice before I left for the day. I'm going to open it up tomorrow and see if there is any visible wetness and then maybe try turning it on. I hope y'all had a good day!

USA Passport

I was dumb and was hoping he couldn't win. I want to get a passport. I have an old one I could renew, but it has my dead name and old gender marker. Has anyone renewed their passport after a name change gender marker? Or should I just apply for a new one in person?

What's your relationship like with your grandparents?

What's your relationship like with your grandparents?

My grandma passed last weeek. I've been thinking about my relationship with her and my other grandparents. My family and I visit them on holidays and they were nice enough. But I don't feel like I knew my grandma or know my other grandparents.

I think my family is weird maybe? Idk it's the only one I know lol. We'd talk about tv and movies we've watched recently. What they watched. Tell the grandparents what was going on in our lives. Ask about what was going in grandma and grandpas life. Mostly get answers like "same old same old", tales of doctor visits, or NCIS.

But like who are they as people? What were dreams when they were young? what adventures have they been on? what sparks joy in their life? What struggles have been through?

Like if I had to describe my grandmother I'd say she was a nice, pleasant lady who was mostly kind and liked cats, but not enough to get her own, just fed the neighbors cat. A description a stranger could give after meeting her talking for a bit maybe.

Looking back at my relationship with my grandparents, it all feels surface level. I never shared any of the hard shit I was dealing with, never really vulnerable around them. They were never vulnerable around me.

I don't know many details of their life beyond career, maybe the places they've lived, pets they've owned.

Maybe that's a reflection on my parents. We were never really vulnerable with each other about stuff, when someone was it was often mocked. My parents were not good parents a lot of the time. Who knows maybe that's a result of their parents?

But umm yeah, Lemmy what's your relationship like with your grandparents? Are you real close? Do you know them well, or more like a coworker you enjoy occasionally small talking with? Or rotten shitbags? I wish I knew my grandma better.
