I just made a sandwich, took it out of the oven, and when I turned, it slid right off the baking sheet into my kitchen sink. Fell right into a bowl full of soapy water. I didn't even do a flourish when I turned. It was a pretty basic maneuver, so I'm not sure what happened!
MY husband has TWO shop vacs. I have a very small one I use in the house - picks up dog hair wonderfully - so what does husband do? Uses MY SHOP VAC to pick up construction debris from our master bath remodel.
What an utter moron. I found out and made him clean it up. Good lord.

So what you're saying is, you don't even get points for style!

Exactly! Not even a nifty square dance move! Just plopped into the sink with the grace of a woman with thumbs-unopposable- slathered in butter, apparently.
I finally bit the bullet and bought new shoes, because my old favorites were making my back hurt from the unevenly worn out soles. I then decided to get new socks because most of my others were also worn out. Now the problem is that the new socks feel gross with the new shoes. So now I have to wear old socks with new shoes. Or new socks with old shoes. Why, god? WHY?!

Oh sweetie, just wash your socks before wearing them. It will be OK, I promise.
I placed an item on the stairs to remind myself to take it upstairs the next time I went. I'm ashamed to say that was three weeks ago and I've passed it maybe 150 times. I even look at it as I go up.

I have no explanation.
Worse - another item has joined it today.
It's okay. You're just giving your things a stair-vacation. I have a number of items currently lounging on my stairs, as well, and also have no explanation. (The stair-vacation doesn't really seem to be a great explanation, does it?)
My sewer line has been corrupted by tree roots. No shower for me today.
Bite the bullet and replace it. Temporary fixes will just extend the period of suffering, and then you will eventually have to replace it anyway.
We got a call from a panicked homeowner. Her sewer line clogged just before Thanksgiving dinner. The nice City workers jetted out her line. It turned out they had jetted out her line about a year ago, and warned her she had a collapsed line that needed replacing. I was less sympathetic after hearing the rest of the story.
