my hero

I've been having no end of trouble the past few nights with translating from Beavis to English, but I was fascinated last night when he started ranting for a while after I mentioned some high solids on the second batch of Enlive.
He was telling me how he could fix it even though all the blend systems were tied up. He was going on and on about how this happened one time and he and DK went and calculated the amount of water they needed and how many gallons per minute the hose would spray and how many pounds per gallon and then they put the water in from the hose in the balance tank as it was processing and honestly, internet, I only understood half of what he was saying but it was amazing.

I realize the story sounds a little mundane, but it was something in the telling that made it sound like they were folk heroes and somehow, if I picture Beavis and DK hosing water into a tank, that's exactly how I see it.
