Not sure I've told this one from years ago. Has a bit of an extenuating circumstance in that my wife is deaf and before her Cochlear implant. But fuck me.
I'm at work. I get a call that the house is flooding. Drive the hour to get home, she is standing on the main floor of the house, with water from up stairs, still dripping through the ceiling, light fixture, down the walls.. The carpet and furniture are soaked. "Obviously" a pipe had burst in the bathroom directly above. So I run down to the basement to shut off the water....more water there. Up to the master bath and the fucking sink is full of water, floor flooded, water soaked into the carpet in the bedroom and down the hall.
She is washing some nylons in the bathroom sink, and she left the water running. Rather than wait the 90 seconds it would take to fill the sink, I guess she decided she would multitask, and got sidetrack multitasking 15 other things...for over an hour. She couldn't hear shit like running water from the next room, before her implants and the fucking sink didn't have an overflow.
I wish I could say this was the only time that happened.
