Same, nor has anyone in my family that i'm aware. We must take small poops.

Or you're just lucky to not have used one of the earlier ('80s?), poorly designed, low flush toilets. Even small poops can clog some of them.

On a separate note, I'm wondering just how often some of the people on here experience toilet overflows. In the decade since moving out of my parents' house, I can remember using a plunger exactly one time. Some of the people on here make toilet overflows sound like a daily occurrence.

It depends on the toilet. In my house, with all the toilets having been replaced in the past several years (with the available everywhere Kohler Highline Classic), none of them have ever been clogged up. At my parent's house, there are some toilets that are more or less prone to getting clogged.

If your toilet gets clogged up frequently, spend the $200 to replace it with a better one.

But the reasons for a clog might not be the toilet, but rather the pipes due to cracks, lips/bumps that catch debris, root invasion, improper slope/distance ratio, etc. Plus a new toilet will not resolve the plunger in the bathroom vs somewhere else issue.

It's true that there are other causes. But bad toilets are a major cause.

I should add that a drain cleaning service did a great job clearing roots from the drainpipe and fixing a break in my crawlspace for the bargain price of $150 last year. That did leave me the unpleasant task of mopping up 25 gallons of raw sewage though. Thank god I had a vapor barrier down there.

I don’t want it in the house because it is germ filled, and why is it a big deal to get it from outside if a toilet is clogged? Thoughts appreciated.

Eat more fiber.

Assuming you rarely use it and wash it off after each use, the plunger is probably cleaner than many things that are in the house with the obvious one being your floor.

What about the gay colorado cake?

And if you never need to use it, than it will remain as clean as the day you bought it from the store. If you only use it once a year, then you can probably afford to replace it with a new one. If you use it more frequent than that, then you probably want it readily accessible for guests or anyone who is embarrassed leaving the toilet full of their feces while they look for a solution....

Fellow Tulsan here. Where’s your go-to coffee shop for this lovely lady

If you have a decently designed toilet, a plunger isn't necessary. This is basically only a problem in the US.

Many toilets still have a weak water flow incapable of flushing more than concentrated urine. Besides, it's the TP that generally clogs toilets, not feces.

A toilet is only going to overflow if it's repeatedly flushed despite showing no signs of the water level going down. That's a gamble but you can just turn the water supply off to the tank before the browns leave the stadium.

I wonder what Bekele's wives status is on toilet hygiene. Do they have a plunger and I'm sure it is kept in the toilet.

In fact, keeping an eye on the toilet is essential; else, you risk flooding yourself and your neighbors. Nobody deserves that kind of turmoil, in my opinion. As a result, it is preferable to clean it on a regular basis to avoid clogs and other issues. To do so, I normally look out information on best chemical to unclog toilet https://cleaningproductslab.com/best-drain-cleaner-for-toilets/ , and there's already a list of goods that may be used to clear clogs. Best of luck

Yes it’s very weird. You are going to be sorry if your toilet overflows and you are going to be dealing with a lot more germs than from an object that you can liberally spray Lysol on. This is coming from the person in our household who deals with the aftermath of such situations.

Don't worry about your husband. You seem like a really great and nice wife. He is lucky to have you. He should respect and appreciate you more. I would never treat you like that by calling you weird. He should be more considerate towards you. I hope your husband realizes that he has the greatest gift ever, and that he should cherish you. Your an angle. If your ever in Tulsa we can go for coffee.

Banana Bread strikes again...fellas, he's out here tryna steal your girl
