Wait you’re not supposed to do that
Aren’t you also clogging the city pipes?
Of course you are. But people who ruin other people’s property already don’t give two shits about others.
Yeah this causes “fatbergs” which wreak havoc on city pipes. I get frustrated when I see memes like this condoning willful property damage bc not only is it stupid and it hurts other people besides the landlord, but even if the landlord has to shoulder costly repairs for plumbing inside their unit, they’re definitely going to pass those costs on to their tenants (either immediately or over time) so this could also contribute to rent hikes.
Not if the substance is a liquid at room temperature.
Pouring hot bacon grease down the drain will do that, because the bacon grease is only a liquid when it’s hot.
Something like olive oil isn’t going to clog pipes.
Make it vegetable shortening
Make sure to pour sulfuric acid down the drain right before he shows up. 🤔
Just pour latex house paint down the drains, whats this baby tier “grease” bullshit.
Until your toilet stops up and floods dookie all over your stuff a week later
You know what will cover up that dookie damage? latex house paint. Solves all your problems.
Financial issues? Latex house paint. Drink it down and your problems disappear.
I see no issues whatsoever with this plan of action
Edit: any flaws in the plan can, of course, be addressed with latex house paint
Glaring flaws in your plan? Latex house paint. Covers 'em right up.
This whole thread speaks of the Landlord Special. Latex paint, what can’t it do!?
Unclog drains.
SLPT: Pouring hot bacon grease works faster, if you’re in a rush…
Bacon grease? Just go to the local Mexican grocery store and get a tub of lard, liquefy it in a large stock pot and hit the pipes in the bathrooms as well. Flush some tampons and paper towel down the toilet behind them. You want to do it right.
Make sure they’re not your own tampons, don’t want them tracking your
DNApregnancy status…
Ok calm down Satan, I still have to live here in the near future
POV: You’re a salty dumb fuck who feels like wasting vegetable oil
POV: you’re reading the comment of somebody that doesn’t cook for themselves
Clearly you’re the one who doesn’t cook if you don’t know what to do with used oil
Why waste the oil? Turn it into gravy, or mayonnaise, or store it to sell to a recycling center that will turn it into biofuel.
Putting used oil into food when it’s not even good enough for frying anymore doesn’t seem like a recipe for success.
Recycling is fair enough.It really depends on what it was used for. I almost always turn bacon grease into gravy or mayo, for oil/butter from cooking meat dishes I make pan sauces, but for frying oil I recycle.
Or strain it and if you have a diesel use it
Landlord detected, humanity rejected.
It will also make life just a smidge harder for every tenant after you. But if it helps you feel better, fuck 'em.
Life should have these splash screens whenever you fall asleep.
My insomnia will be like a long loading game that has two or three repeating tips for each loading screen.
Like shitty life pro tips, sleep edition.
As far as I know oil is ok. It’s liquid even when cold. But lard or grease will clump in cold water.
The best thing to do is save your used grease in a can and put it in the compost or garbage bin
Alternative : save your grease in a jar and heat it up and pour it down the sink the moment your slumlord increases your rent and prices you out of the building.
Bacon grease is a good example of something you freeze in an old can to throw away.
Can also be used to make homemade fire starter if you’re going camping. Mix it with wood pulp till you get a dry paste.
I use Ghee or Tallow when cooking. Both are solid at room temperature. I wait for the left over grease to cool down, and wipe it up with a paper towel. Easy peasy.
No it’s not. Use lard or other animals fat, beef fat is the worst.
Right, you need a fat that’s solid at room temp.
Exactly this, you need something that will be solid at room temperature.
I mean, what else am I supposed to do with it?
… No really, I’m asking.
If you don’t know someone that burns old oil put it in an old container and throw it away in the trash.
Civilized countries have collection stations for oil often at the same place you go for recycling.
Put it in a jar or can and put it on the compost or garbage
Pour it into a bottle and throw it in the trash
If its oil, you might be able to donate it to a home diesel user
Chug it or put in old bottle or jar and throw in the trash.
Rather than throwing it away, you may have free options for recycling nearby, too. My county has a pretty robust program for residents available with regular recycling and hazardous waste like oil or paint in certain locations. There’s sometimes restrictions and sorting required from customers, but it’s usually pretty straight forward if you look it up
So I thought this was a good idea until I did a search. Found tons of motor oil recycling.
Ah, maybe try searching household hazardous waste recycling specifically. It’s possible the auto stores might accept all used oil products too, though. At least when I worked in the hazardous waste field for my county program, I mixed all the oil products, and they used it to heat the shops over the winter. We had a separate company that picked up stuff we couldn’t process, and my job was mostly sorting and combining what I could first. Afaik a lot of auto companies are doing the same hazardous waste bulk pick up.
If it’s not that much: soak it in a paper towel and throw that away. For frying: put it back in the bottle and throw that away if the oil is spend.
Tell the US government about it. Then they will bring you democracy and liberate you from the oppressive oil. /j
If it’s something like bacon / beef grease just let it congeal in the pan then scrape it out into the garbage can.
Looks like my arteries
JD Vance approved!
Am I the only one who thought of a Sea Lamprey?
Forbidden fleshlight
Glad to know I’m not the only one whose mind went down the gutter.
Literally
My mind won’t be the only thing going down the gutter now.
realistically your only hurting the person that lives there next. Even when it eventually becomes too big a problem to ignore that’ll prompt the landlord to hastily cover it up and sell it. And you are also hurting the city pipes as well which costs everyone money.
Start a fire. Got it.
Posts like this feel like the modern equivalent to the USA distributing subterfuge instructional pamphlets in the USSR.
Sure, you could intentionally damage properties, but do you really want to do it because some government suits pressured you?
Sure bro, the foreign government conspiracy to affect the average profitability of landlords by 2% for the extremely large population of Lemmings.
Lmao yeah what massive aggressive dictatorship has a history of anti-landlord rhetoric and frequent online propoganda campaigns, especially on Lemmy?
Can’t think of a single one. Nope. No ringers.
Lol, liberals.
Every accusation a confession.
Yep, that saying definitely applies to me, a conservative liberal who hates landlords and loves Mao.
Its a play on words since you responded to my rhetorical question with a noun.
That’s worse you know
