For those who want to know the laptop story...
basically think of it this way, when your friends walking in the hallway looking at the comp, don't be running from the basement to the bathroom with a stupidly opened drain cleaner in your hands...
literally what happened, the sink just started clogging so once the water died down he got his comp to look up ways to clean it, I insisted to just use a clog cleaner (mostly cuz i just wanted to pour the damn stuff)
all I can say is that we're both lucky the drain cleaner didn't get on our skin... that woulda been bad...
