TIL the guy running the register at the hardware store on 8th knows more about my plumbing than I do
I used to just grab whatever PVC cement was on the shelf without asking a soul, but last Saturday I brought in a photo of my leaky joint and the guy behind the counter pointed me to the right primer in about 10 seconds. What's the weirdest fix a stranger has handed you at a checkout counter?

pointed me to the right primer in about 10 seconds" is the best part, those old hardware guys are like walking manuals. I had the same thing at a True Value when my shower was dripping and the kid at the counter asked if I'd checked the seat spring before buying a whole new cartridge. Ten minute fix instead of a plumber visit. Weirdest thing a stranger ever fixed for me though was a guy in line at the auto parts store who heard me describe a rattle and told me it was my heat shield, which it was.
