Suppose I like the poop smell. Is there a general code requirement to have one?

I think the products should be renamed as SeldomWet and Ultra-Often Dry.

Translation: This isn't just coding. You'll be in MEETINGS! Lots of glorious meetings where we can interface and achieve synergies to maximize our core competencies while improving the bottom line of our profit centers.

It's like running from a bear. I can't run faster than a bear. But all I have to do is run faster than you.

"I was told that the owners never took a shower, due to worry over the walls.". Next question: "How do I remove the stank of the previous owners?".

I'd just like to point out that @Tester101 just added a 7th answer to a question he was complaining only had 2 answers and had closed because he thought it was opinion based with an answer that quotes the manufacturer's web site.

When looking at suggested edits, think to yourself "If this was my answer/question, would I want somebody adding this to it?", and "Does this make the answer/question better?". If the answer is no, then reject the edit. If you're not sure, just skip it and move on to the next.

Yea, I guess that's true. Trolls are distinct from know-it-alls that really don't know much.

So yesterday a co-worker was asking me about tiling their bathroom floor. She eventually said "if only there was a stack-overflow for this sort of thing"...

@ChrisCudmore I've got a mental image of the incredible hulk asking that question, and then ripping another microwave in half.

I think this is why parents move after the kids leave home. It's not downsizing, the first house was just a disposable child raising facility.

NEC 2012 404.19 Inoperable switches. Each building shall contain a minimum of one inoperable switch. Exception: A building containing exactly one switch, shall be exempt.

Or just leave the switch, since NEC says there must be at least one switch that controls nothing.
