In lieu of sandbags. Use garbage bags filled with water.

If using towels to dry floor, use the spin cycle to wring them out before reuse.

Please add others and stay safe!

Shared on Facebook and tagged everyone. Also, don't forget to enter your PIN backwards if you're being robbed at the ATM. The money will come out but get stuck, and the machine automatically notifies police. Share that and take care.

Dig a moat and build a draw bridge. Will also protect against invading crusaders.

Yes, running the washing machine with a flooded house sounds like a brilliant idea.

when eating fruit during a flood, just spit the seeds on your floor...the moisture will sprout them and grow more fruit right in your living room!

Swim in floodwater to make the best of a shitty situation. Make sure that you get plenty in your eyes and mouth.

Do not buy your flood relief supplies from Wal-Mart after dark. There will be gang initiations occurring there.

Stay safe, y'all.

Plug in a small appliance and drop it in the water every 1-2 hours to kill snakes.

If anyone needs to borrow a Sham Wow just let me know. One in the yard will soak up everything.
