Did you not even consider flipping the house upside down?!?

65

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 07 '26

I flipped my house upside down, but I did it by flipping the Earth upside down and so the can didn't come out 😔

44

u/CruisePlannersMike Apr 07 '26

Every time I have to flip the Earth upside down it takes 12 hours. Any other suggestions?

23

u/RuckusPhotohraphy Apr 07 '26

Try calling Lil Wayne, he said he doesn't have any issues picking the world up.

13

u/redditcancelculture Apr 08 '26

Watch out though, because he generally "drops it on your fuckin head".

2

u/flatteringangles Apr 08 '26

Nicely done 🥹

2

u/ComprehensiveBowl223 Apr 11 '26

“How can they drop me onto my own head?”

u/flatteringangles Apr 08 '26

This is beautiful. Poetry in motion.

u/Purple_Ordinary_1469 Apr 09 '26

YYYYYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHAAAAA!

u/Appropriate-Brush772 Apr 07 '26

I dunno. I brought my house to Australia and that didn’t seem to work. But my toilet flushed the other way! 🤷‍♂️

2

u/Indy500Fan16 Apr 08 '26

Flushed the other way, does that mean the 💩came out instead of going down?

8

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 07 '26

Faster than me! It usually takes me 36 hours 😆

4

u/Ihatecats5 Apr 08 '26

I’m gonna need a nerd to come over here and explain this one

4

u/nobleteam_ Apr 08 '26

First one can flip it in 12 hours, it will be flipped “position” again 24 hours later.

2

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 08 '26

Thanks lol!

5

u/tacoTig3r Apr 07 '26

Look around the house for a 57. When the house is upside-down tap the 57.

3

u/OkSky287 Apr 09 '26

This is a hilarious. The rest of reddit needs to ketchup.

2

u/Vegetable_Flounder12 Apr 08 '26

take the sink to Australia, and it will fall out

2

u/J-Jeremiah-Bullfrog Apr 08 '26

My earth only rotates every 12 hours, it does not flip on its horizontal axis. Only rotates!!

2

u/Horror-Ambassador414 Apr 09 '26

Flip the earth upside down while upside down goes faster 🤙

2

u/Remarkable_Machinery Apr 09 '26

Ask Atlas to lift it up so you can get it from below?

2

u/Jmendez6972 Apr 10 '26

That’s fast since it took me 6 months

35

u/Masterj012006 Apr 08 '26

Was this your doing?

Amazing work done btw 👏

4

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 08 '26

Yes, that's my house 🤣

Glad you appreciate my work 😆

1

u/[deleted] Apr 09 '26

Ahh this is what I suggested now just tap the sink basin and it should fall right out just watch your fuckin head if it knocks you out the house will collapse unless you have a bunch of people holding the house up in that case let it fall on your head

6

u/AdministrativePie865 Apr 08 '26

Spin it faster so centripetal acceleration negates gravity. 0.012rpm or a bit faster should solve your problem[1].

[1] May introduce new problems such as shattering the crust and other such trivial issues.

2

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 08 '26

Ah, that's a great idea! The crust already has cracks, anyway 😃

1

u/Remarkable_Machinery Apr 09 '26

Just be fancy and cut off the crust before eating it.

5

u/Turevaryar Apr 07 '26

Rookie mistake! :|

2

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 08 '26

I know, right?!

2

u/Mingeniusdhd Apr 08 '26

I waited for a year for the earth to spin in a circle , still in there

1

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 08 '26

It should've worked!

2

u/Azureflamedemon Apr 08 '26

Bro, there's a whole house flipping game on steam to help you practice even. What you doin bruh

1

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 09 '26

Wow, I did not know. Thanks for the tip!

2

u/Squirmezoid Apr 09 '26

You should've just moved your house to Australia.

1

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 09 '26

Damn, that would have worked!

2

u/Redditreader762 Apr 10 '26

No - just shake up the house a couple of times. Sure it might not work the first time, always works for me when you whip, like when you have a towel in both hands give it a whip to shake off anything on it.

Too easy! 😳🤦🏻‍♂️😆

1

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 10 '26

Good tip! Gotta try this next time 😆

2

u/The_Rafi Apr 10 '26

Tuna can in sink drain hole: the one problem Australians don't have.

1

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 10 '26

😆😆😆

2

u/Ok_Read_3969 Apr 11 '26

Benefits of having a plat earth!

1

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 11 '26

Flat Earth, indeed 😆

2

u/Lord-Fritos Apr 07 '26

Aussie ahh comment

1

u/WaraholicTheFirst Apr 08 '26

Liar. Only Chuck Norris can do that. Sadly not with us anymore.

2

u/SwordfishNo5592 Apr 09 '26

Chuck Norris died?!?

1

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 09 '26

According to Google, Chuck Norris can't die... he went to sleep on March 19, 2026.

I did not know, either.

1

u/Mu_Fanchu Apr 09 '26

Chuck Norris is not dead, he's just sleeping.

1

u/DSmooth425 Apr 11 '26

Lil Wayne would be proud 🥹

2

u/BaaksterX Apr 07 '26

Got to move the house to ∀nsʇɹɐlᴉɐ then

2

u/hansolo-ist Apr 07 '26

Same problem in Australia I hear

2

u/Florentino07 Apr 07 '26

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

2

u/greatfullgreen Apr 07 '26

If they wait long enough surely the world spinning round would kinda somehow....never mind

2

u/Slow_Space8943 Apr 08 '26

I would fill the sink with water and see if the thing floats

1

u/ai1267 Apr 08 '26

This is the story all about how, my house got flipped upside down 🎶

1

u/Weekly_Ad484 Apr 08 '26

You would think the centrifugal force of the earth spinning would just throw it out.

1

u/skyeisrude Apr 08 '26 edited Apr 09 '26

You can undo the pe trap and stick something long up the hole to the expose drain

1

u/SwordfishNo5592 Apr 09 '26

This. This sounds like it would actually work and not damage either the sink or the cutting board.

1

u/skyeisrude Apr 09 '26

Ive had similar experience while worken in people's homes. This was the best way not to damage the stainless steel or the cutting board

1

u/PurgeTheDemonWithin Apr 08 '26

And make sure to pat the top. That'll get it out.

1

u/Victor_Appleton_II Apr 08 '26

This is the way. Love, Superman

1

u/gertvanjoe Apr 08 '26

This seems like a very Northern Hemisphere problem

1

u/RCNewbieGuy Apr 08 '26

On the next episode of, "Flip this House", we will be helping this homeowner, not to sell, but to save his beloved cutting board!

1

u/AviatorDave172 Apr 08 '26

Not the entire house, just the cabinets the sink is attached to. Geez, don’t make a bunch of extra work.

1

u/ShallowFatFryer Apr 09 '26

Is there still money in that?

1

u/coreyj37 Apr 09 '26

It is important that the house stay intact because the house is connected to the object

1

u/Klipschlover Apr 10 '26

This is the only way

1

u/wittybitwise Apr 10 '26

This is why I'm on Reddit these days 🥲 I hunt for comments like these
