On the plus side, if the Foot Clan attacks, you'll have easy access to allies.

It is also a reasonable explanation for any disappearing pizza.

Like my username implies I am definitely not responsible for breaking into this persons home and stealing 3-4 pizzas last week.

this is literally a shit hole

No city name on the lid? Maybe this is the best crawlspace access ever?

[–] [email protected] 40 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I used to have to poke around in manholes. Not all of them have the name of the city on them, and not all of them go to a sewer. Some of them have cables in them.

The one pictured does look like a municipal manhole cover instead of one belonging to AT&T or another communications company, just because of the design on it.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That was one thing I could never do when I was an "urban explorer" (fancy term for trespassing in to municipal water infrastructure), manholes always freaked me out so much my friends couldn't even peer pressure me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

That's for the best. You can 100% fall over dead before you know what's happening in an unventilated manhole.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I was under the impression that the grates which don't have a city name are older from a time before people realized that they can be stolen and sold for the value of the scrap metal.

Then municipalities started to stamp their name on it and metal recyclers couldn't take them anymore unless you took it to a shady recycler so the value dropped.

No idea how true that is though.

If you are a Turtle that practices martial arts

I seem to remember this being a Reddit post some years ago actually. Don't know much more than that.

[–] [email protected] 54 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Imagine this shit coming up when the streets outside flood or something

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pretty sure this does not meet code.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Doesn't matter, they'll sublet it to some poor student and call it 'close to the city centre' because the king''s shit floats through those pipes.

Easy alternative if the shitter is clogged. Rent +$700

If the house is old enough, it might be an old coal ~~shoot~~ chute for a boiler in the basement. Lived in an old farmhouse for a bit that had one of these

From French chute, fall, see also parachute, "protect against falling".

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Thank you... I knew it wasn't "shoot" but no other spelling looked right

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

It’ll be easy for the robbers to get into the house.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

well, at least you can easily... dispose of... say... unusual waste

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

You need turtles and pizza

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh, you found the rat pit, put that trap door back, put it, PUT IT BACK MOTHERFUCKER.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Nah that's free calories ain't no way

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Why does the design on it look like something from an ancient civilization?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sounds about right. Pieces of garbage would charge us by weight if they could.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

we can't? /s
