Is there a way to temporarily stop a leaking bathtub faucet?

December 8th, 2011
Z B asked:


My apartment is going to fix the faucet in my bathtub in a few days, right now there is a fairly tiny stream running out of it. The sound is driving me crazy though and i don’t like the waste of water.
Is there a way to block the end until they get to it, at least to slow it a little, and if i can figure out a way is there a possibility of it causing some sort of damage.

How can I stop falling asleep in the bathtub?

November 12th, 2011
neyenna asked:


I have a rather strange problem. I got used to fall asleep in the bathtub and I really can’t stay awake! Whether I drink coffee or not before bathing, I fall asleep! It also could be called a nap and I don’t think I will ever drown in my little bathtub, but it annoys me. What else except drinking coffee and bathing in the morning could help me to finally stay awake in the bathtub? Please help me!
