Ben Stiller moment

You know that scene in either a Ben Stiller or Jim Carey movie; the guy is in the bathroom about to wash his hands, looking in the mirror, he turns the cold water knob, you hear a cracking sound and then this geyser of desalinated island water gushes up out of the now exposed valve. He juggles the knob, now loose, from hand to hand as he gets doused. He tries frantically to put the knob back on but all that does is divert the water outward into this spray that drenches his shirt. Nevertheless he tries to hold the knob down over the 2,000 psi jet of water while he tries to reach under the sink to turn off the valve. But every time he tries to reach for it, its too far of a reach so he cant keep his hand over the spray and reach the bottom valve under the sink at the same time. So he clumsily alternates crouching down trying to turn the knob and getting back up to hold his hand over the waterspout, the bathroom floor is now flooding. Yeah, that just happened to me.


P.S. Don't use the sink in the men's bathroom in the 5th floor study room at the dorms. It done been broke.
