Pluggers by Rick McKee for August 19, 2022

many melted ice cubes thereunder might short the fridge, right?

You’re a plugger if you won’t live long enough to see the world’s biggest ice cubes—in Antarctica—melt and raise global sea levels by tens of feet.

I would say the bar for what a Plugger is has been set low but I don’t think there is a bar.

You might be a Plugger if you drop an Ice Cube and the dog eats it ;-)

You might be a Plugger if when you drop that ice cube you ask, “Who put the floor so far away?”

Eh me not has ice cubes in the first place.

You’re a Plugger if you drop an ice cube — the last one in the tray — on the floor, wipe it on your shirt, and plop it in your drink.

Just don’t let it melt unnoticed somewhere on the floor. SLIP HAZARD!

You’re a Plugger if you find a the water puddle from a melted ice cube on the floor, get a paper towel to wipe it up, lose track of it when you return and promptly step in it in your stocking feet.

Our dog loves them, and chases them all over the floor, so we give them to him…

A chuckle, thanks.

My sister taught me that, she said it’s ok, it will just melt, wonder how many she kicks under the fridge in heaven?

You must be terribly thin to fit under the fridge.

The nitwits at work do this all the time rather than picking them up and tossing them into the sink a couple of feet away. The real problem is when they melt, they set of the leak detector under the fridge. That, in turn, shuts off the water to everything in the breakroom. THEN they come b*tching to me that the water is off.

Morons!

I’ve kicked many things under many different pieces of furniture.

geez, i’ve been doing it wrong all these years. i pick it up and throw it in the sink…

And you’re a Parent if you’ve ever had to get on all fours and use a yardstick under the fridge to retrieve: Lego pieces, M&Ms, Hot Wheels, cat toys, Barbie accessories and loose change.

Sshhhh! Don’t tell my wife!

Wait, there are adults who have not done that yet?

Only use ice cubes when have cooked something – a stew or soup – which needs to be cooled off quickly to put in the fridge until the next day when we will eat it. (They take so long to cook from scratch.) Then the trays have to be put under warm water quickly to melt them enough to get them out to use and then the cubes dropped into the water in the pot surrounding the jar(s) that the stew/soup is in for fridge storage which all sits in the sink until the jars are cool enough -then removed from pot of ice water and wiped down before putting in fridge.

Well, gee, my cats can do that!
