Damn, someone has to take a hit for the team, I'll bite: what's the back story to this? LOL
I did not find any explanatory description for that pic, in English.

Чудики из социальных сетей < is the description listed on many of the pages where it appears. reddit also is a common link to it.

Just replaced the water inlet valve on my dishwasher. Part was only $19.50 off Amazon and took maybe 15 minutes to swap out. I guess I could have called a repairman and paid $200 but that's not how I roll. I always try and fix things myself and 95% of the time I get it done. This took me maybe 5 minutes to pull out the dishwasher and find the leak. Googled the part number and found it on Amazon.

Here's the bad one that was leaking. I woke up to 1/2 inch of water on the kitchen floor the other morning. Probably woke up the neighbors with my cussing. Now off to pull weeds and spread bark dust around the flowers in the front yard. I have a dozen more chores on my list for today.

It must be the season - I had to do the exact same thing last month.
Took me longer to pull out & prep dishwasher than it did to do the actual repair.

Yuba County Sheriff's Office Press Release: Illegal Cannabis Cultivation – Dixon Hill Rd, Dobbins

At approximately 8:00 a.m. on 7/5/19, the YCSO Marijuana Enforcement Team (METYU) with the assistance of Yuba County Code Enforcement officers executed a search warrant in the 13000 block of Dixon Hill Rd in Dobbins. During the search, Deputies located and eradicated approximately 1,224 marijuana plants at an outdoor grow in an non-permitted temporary greenhouse structure. No suspects were located at the site during the search.

Deputies conducted an approximate one-month long investigation of the site which investigators first became aware of following a fire at a related grow in Forbestown in May, 2019. The Dixon Hill Rd grow location was then confirmed by overflights of the area.





Ruined these peoples day.

Picked up a Pyrex Flameware glass coffee perc (all parts, no chips) (just like Mom had back in the day), Forschner boning knife, Spade pewter pepper mill, and a Victorinox Pro 10" chef knife all for $6 at the VOA so not a bad day scrounging for deals.
I love my forschner boning knife. I've been considering adding an 8" Chef to my kit. Good deals.

Yeah, I thought so, the boning knife has a wood handle so older and neither had been ground or scratched up. Usually can't find quality knives at the VOA or Goodwill. I need to get a metal trivet/spacer to use the perc on an electric stove. Rare to find these complete and intact.
