The worst was a penny, it wedged between the rotor and wall and I had to take the whole dang thing apart. She saw it fall in and heard it when she turned it on but she assumed that since steel is harder than copper it would just chop up the penny.
I can't help but smile when listening to her explain how things get screwed up. You should try a trimmer pilot. It'll shut one down in a hurry.
What about guns?When do we get guns?

I have never understood garbage disposals. According to my wife, they are not capable of handling anything but water. It always seemed to me that they were a complete waste of time. Going against her own advice, she has provided me with numerous opportunities to clear various vegetable (apparently things that it is supposed to accept) matter from the pipes. Yes, she ran lots of water with it.

you can thank me later

Y'all ain't lived until ya have had ta unstop that just so ya can take a cr  p in the dead of winter without tha john backing up all over the floor, Love her like I do.... Flower Child

Since there is no running water or sewer in my house I don't even know what you guys are talking about.

If it don't fit down the disposal, we feed it to the pigs.

Why are they under the impression that because it can fit in the garbage disposal, it's ok to put it in the garbage disposal?
This should take me but 40 minutes to fix. You asked for her - now ya got her.. Enjoy..

Scott, after having not lived with a woman for a long time ( like you..) I discovered other things about them as well as the garbage disposal thing.. 1.When putting knives in a dryer rack in diswasher or plain rack for those of us without dishwashers, they feel compelled to put them in, blades pointing up.. 2. They are apparently born without the gene that enables them to take out the garbage.. 3.It is them, not us, who are incapable of changing a roll of toilet paper....they are, however, capable of using it at a truly alarming rate... 4.Complex things to remember, like dotz on a scope, completely escape them...unless it concerns remembering things you did/said wrong...or anything involving their children... 5.They "need" myriads of shampoos, conditioners, and other stuff in plastic bottles littering the shower... 6." their" money is theirs, "our" money is theirs, and "your" money is only yours if you spend equal amounts on both of you.. ( i.e. new $600 gun for you equals new flat screen TV for "us"...) I'm sure I'll think up more....

I was thinking it was tulips.
But I digress. Wife is a country gal. All trash, scraps etc.... goes in the trash under the sink. Used to go in the slop bucket... I remember that but don't think they ever had pigs...
RE toilet, we have always been septic, that means NOTHING other than 1/2 goes into the toilet, thats what the dam trash can next to it is for....
I always say I"m luckier than I should have been... still holds true. And if she didn't crack the whip like she does at times, we wouldn't get quite as much work done on the farm as we do...

I can't help but smile when listening to her explain how things get screwed up. That's funny. Look on the bright side, at least yours knows steel is harder than copper.  Didn't do you or her much good this time but it may come in handy some day. Mine doesn't like to use the darn thing, so I guess I'm lucky?

They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

Reminds me of an old girlfriend. She was very well, uhh, 'thrifty', I guess you would say. Used to run the gas down so low in her car(like the low fuel light on every tank) that her fuel pump went out. Duh!!!

We're on a septic so we don't have a garbage disposal which is one less thing for me to have to fix.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.
