00:00

Thank you Commitment to community allah shmoop well if you

00:06

happen to live somewhere that's in the middle of the

00:08

worst drought in its history then you owe it to

00:10

your community to do your part to make the situation

00:13

better or at least not worse unless you're a a

00:16

beer eh That guy abe is a water hog actually

00:19

that's an insult the hogs are buddy abraham likes toe

00:22

flush and re flush his toilet over and over again

00:26

just because he likes the sound it makes He washes

00:28

his fancy sports car three times a day and when

00:31

the neighbors aren't looking he siphons water from the nearby

00:33

hydrants to fill his pool Something tells us able be

00:37

getting many guests at his upcoming pool party so abe's

00:41

disregard for his community may result in him having a

00:43

green lawn but his neighbor's certainly aren't green with envy

00:47

If anything it doesn't have a single friend on the

00:49

block and as he discovers there's nothing sadder than playing

00:52

marco polo alone marco and then comes back to you

00:57

there Well it doesn't take the authorities long to discover

00:59

who should be fine for not following the water guidelines

01:02

It's going to cost a plenty of green toe cover

01:04

the penalties that's for sure because he clearly demonstrated that

01:08

he didn't care one iota about his community That community

01:11

repaid him by giving him the cold shoulder but their

01:13

shoulders are considerably warmer Toe abe's neighbor joey they knew

01:17

that's where we're going with this thing Joey's made a

01:20

commitment to his community to help his family's water consumption

01:23

by twenty five percent just as the governor mandated and

01:26

he's going to do it by any means necessary Well

01:29

not any means he's still gonna like drink water he's

01:32

not superhuman or cactus they drink But but even if

01:36

it wasn't the actual law to cutback while joey feels

01:39

as if he's made a promise to his community to

01:41

conserve its precious resource is after all the whole neighborhood

01:44

needs water right Besides he loves his home And he's

01:47

perfected his killer tan So there's no way he's moving

01:50

anywhere else You figures he's going to make the best

01:52

of his situation That means shutting the water off when

01:55

he brushes his teeth letting his lawn die Hey brown

01:59

is the new green people skipping car washes in shortening

02:02

His showers belting ariana grande a songs for forty five

02:05

minutes are a thing of the past Two minutes will

02:07

get you just fine which ends up having other benefits

02:10

His neighbors save a bundle on earplugs first of all

02:13

but joey clearly cares about his community and shows it

02:16

by conserving water So instead of helping a butt that

02:19

big old fine everyone turns their influence and support toward

02:22

the guy who actually cares about his community Sounds like

02:25

a pretty cool community to live in unless you're a 00:02:28.22 --> [endTime] yeah merkel
