Why YSK:
Many people vastly underestimate the forces even small bodies of water can impart.
There's a silly little rule of thumb that's actually pretty helpful. If you dropped a flower in the water, would you have time to bend down and pick it up, or is flowing away out of reach by the time you did?
If you can pick it up, you're fine.
If not, basically, if the water goes over your ankles you can be taken off your feet at any moment, mind the rocks, but are okayish.
If it goes over your knees, you're at serious risk of being taken by the stream.
If you're trying to move something with a large surface area, like the wheels of a car, or god help you its deep enough to be pushing on the whole sides of the car, you're fucked.
Moving bodies of water contain incredible energies, water is really, really dense. I mean just think about picking up a big bucket of the stuff.
I see a lot of people drive cars over roads that have flooded and are in motion, and every time I wish I could scream at them before they go in.
Water is so dense, that whole ass car only weighs as much as 1-2 cubic meters of water. Its surface area can have a LOT more than that pushing on it.
Your car absolutely will not win.
Long Feng was able to one shot kill jet in a single move. Firebenders can one shot kill with fire or lightning. How about air or water
Edit: after reading every single comment I have come to the determination that I’m supposed to wipe with TP, then get some soap and scrub my butt and splash water up there with my hands to rinse off. Apparently these are unique to Italy. Thanks to everyone who contributed.
Edit: ok apparently this type of bidet is not unique to Italy and exists in other parts of Europe too.
I’m trying to move soldiers from Charleston, South Carolina, to France so I can help repel Germany. I’m allied with France, but it’s not letting me access their ports.
How do I select my squadrons and send them over the water into friendly territory?
I'm a believer!
I got a new apartment thas has no tiles in the bathrooms and nothing installed in the bathrooms yet. Both bathrooms are just bare concrete but they have the eletrical wiring and the hydraulic system installed inside the walls (sorry for the non-native English terms).
There is one bathroom in the 1st floor and another in the 3rd. However, the hydraulics are designed to install both water heaters in the 1st floor bathroom. So one heater will supply the 1st floor bathroom and the other will supply the 3rd floor bathroom. That means the hot water will be heated in the first floor and travel all the way to the third floor.
The walls are insulated and such but I am still afraid there will still be a waiting time anytime someone in the 3rd floor uses the hot water in the shower. And I expect it to be even more boring to wait for the hot water in the sink since one uses the sink more often during the day and for quicker stuff.
I was wondering if it would be a good idea to add a water heater in the 3rd floor so the water does not have to travel that long. That means, the walls of 3rd floor bathroom would need to be digged to install the hydraulics for supporting the new water heater. I wanted some opinions here regarding the choices I have.
My lungs are doing poorly and I think it's time to do something that can help, I already live in CA so beaches aren't drastically far from where I live, but they're far enough that family would probably only visit for special occasions. Just curious if anyone else has ever made this plunge, and if so do you have any advice or things I should be prepared for.
Though I ignored it for a while in favour of evading. Only con is you can't do this while charging.

I don't know how to explain what the item I don't know the name of is. It is a thing I saw at a museum once and in a Guinness World Records book. It was a giant globe made entirely of a polished stone. It was several hundred pounds and it was on this donut-shaped pedestal with a tiny hole for the ball. It would have been near impossible to move it, yet there was water running over the top and it glided in a smooth way. I was talking with a friend about it and now I can't think of the name. Any help is appreciated.
Why YSK: I’ve read multiple accounts of this on AskReddit threads (you know the kind), so I thought I’d mention it.
I’m not saying it’s definitely not ghosts, but I have been told this by at least three separate plumbers (I really don’t know why, other than the fact that I own pets and live somewhere with walls: I never bring it up).
But I did check it out, and it is true, at least in my case.
And this info might help someone somewhere sleep easier tonight.
