I know what they are but was thinking maybe she didn’t have disposals where she is from too.
But she already has a reputation for being ditzy and dumb, I wouldn’t have put this on social media because it’s not cute.

The Lunatic Fringe actually tried to pass a law banning Garbage disposals in Raleigh a few years ago - to save the world.
They had their asses handed to them on election day of course.

I've lived in a home with a septic system and a disposal since the early nineties and have never had a problem.

My septic tank guy didn't like the state of my tank the last time we pumped it. So when my garbage disposal started leaking I simply removed it. I grew up without one nbd. To hook to city sewer would double my water bill and cost thousands so I don't take chances. I think AOG is being silly but its obviously a joke.CockatooCrazyColt529 wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 6:46 amI've lived in a home with a septic system and a disposal since the early nineties and have never had a problem.
