Found a small cave under my house

About a handspan wide, more than half a meter deep (can't see all the way in at any angle), deep under my house.

Crawl in, there is definitely treasure in there.

Ooh, what type?

All the avocado toast that the previous homeowner hoarded.

That's considered an official hoard, they'll need to report it.

Is this the natural bedrock or is it backfill?

WaterWaiver@aussie.zone · 6 pts · 1y

Mixture, but in this spot loose sandy fill. Sandstone area.

A handspan-wide? It's meant to be. You'll get a better idea of the depth with your arm.

You need to put blushing cheeks and half lidded eyes. Then add a "uwu senpai" quote, or some shit .

I have the 14 foot variety and it's glorious. Not only can I gross out friends and family with pictures of my nasal cavity, I can also shove it in long holes like my sump pump drain and see what's what.

Question from my mum: "Does he do the sump pump drain before he does his nasal cavity?"

pezhore@infosec.pub · 2 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Tell her, excellent question! Typically I do nasal cavity searches before I inspect the sump pump drain... Typically.
