I just wanted a hot dog Took some time off to enjoy the pool

I had taken this week off work and expected to be able to enjoy the pool. The lease says we are to pay $150/month for weekly pool cleaning services but they didn’t come out this week and barely cleaned last week. Come to find out the landlord is “in between pool cleaners” and didn’t tell us.

Drain it and drive half a dozen SUVs through it.

Make sure that one of those vehicles is heavily armored and weighs much more than a typical vehicle, too. That definitely won't cause any damage or anything.

Ohioans, this is the guy who bribed Jim Traficant then turned rat and testified against him.

What was even the point of driving through the drained pool? Can't they go around?

I never understood why people say "half a dozen" instead of just "six"

May I recommend that you read George Orwell’s “1984”? There’s a particular passage or two that you might find interesting.

I'm not reading the whole thing again just for that.

Then you may never understand why people say "half a dozen" instead of just "six"

It's either just habit or active self-importance.
