10 Reactions to Having a Flooded Basement
You have a heavy rain. The grounds are saturated, and your basement is flooded. You’re angry and upset.
- Don’t you just love the smell of mold in the morning? It’s so toxic!
- I finally have the chance to launch my model speedboat
- My house has gone from a handyman’s special to a handyman’s wreck
- Did anyone see my calculator float buy? I want to assess the damages
- This sub pump really did the job. Now I only have six inches of water instead of twelve inches of water. As an added bonus, I have sludge that looks as thick as chocolate pudding.
- Would anyone like a ride on my waterbed? We’ll dock at the foot of the stairs
- This is a mess! This is a catastrophe! My complete Barney the Dinosaur video collection is ruined. Perhaps if I use my imagination, I can make this flooded basement disappear. Oh no. My stuffed Barney the Dinosaur is water logged. Will the suffering ever end?
- Is that a snake that I see in the basement? Oh thank heaven it isn’t. It’s only a ten-inch rat.
- My homeowner’s policy does not cover flooded basements. I wonder if it covers flooded tears.
- This home is a lemon. My basement is the lemonade. I’m sour over the entire situation.

I’m glad I don’t have a basement!
I am sorry about your basement! Thanks for the humor about it though.
Nice write Steve. Call Bedry. Experts in keeping the ole basement dry. Well done.
It’s good that you can turn the flooding problems into creative writing. A nice humour.

You have a great sense of humor and express it very well!!
Think of it as an indoor pool.
