How Many Times A Week Do Ya Have to Use The Plunger to Unclog the Toilette After A BM
 

I'd say I am good for 7 out of 7 days a week....it just doesn't want to go down.

I think my mother-in-law eats at the same place as you.

How old is your toilet? When the first low flow toilets came out (mid 90's?), they couldn't flush a cotten ball down. They've gotten better over time.

With todays toilet you need to waste water.

4-5 flushes per session is mandatory.

I just squish 'em through the shower drain.

You need a better toilet. Actually, you could probably use a flushmate 1000.

And you should eat better.

What's the problem is it floating?

I don't eat like a bird, but I rarely clog the toilet... Get a better toilet, use less paper....

Low flush, once or twice a month.

Time for a new throne my friend. These things will flush a 30lb Spaniel:
Gerber 21-312 Ultra Flush Elongated Two Piece Pressure-Assist Toilet

It's the first thing I installed in my house when we moved in and my personal favorite appliance. :D

:D

Somebody please drop the link in here... I know someone has it saved... it's time for that Freebird to fly again.

One of the all-time classics, courtesy of Higgins: :D

We used to shower together all the time. Then, one day, I tried to "sneak one out" while she was in there with me, and a little turd fell out. I tried to nonchalantly squish it down through the drain with my foot, but that was really hard to do with her screaming like hell and jumping all over the place.

Champion 4 = never have to plunge again, seriously. $200+ at HD or Lowes. Worth every penny

+1 on the Champion 4. Best upgrade I ever made to my house.

7 days a week??? Are you eating concrete?

The toilets the builder put in our house would clog with a snotty Kleenex. I replaced them with the good ones that are clog proof. We have never used a plunger in all the years since the new toilets.

LOL! I'd like one so powerful the flush handle is outside the bathroom so you don't get sucked in. It would probably need some kind of government mandated interlock to make sure the door is closed and locked before the flush handle will work. This might be the one.

I am a master of the "Hershey Squirts" with the viscosity of 30wt. I voted "never".:D

I just beat 'em with a wire coat hanger before I flush. Kind of like making guacamole and they go right down. no muss, no fuss.

switched to toilets that have a 4 inch hole and supposidly can down a bucket of golf balls without getting stuck.. now only rarely does it get clogged.

Amen. Plugging one is an accomplishment.:cool:

my TOTO is unfazed.

first time i flushed it after install (test flush)..i was like, "o-oh, this isnt going to work". the low flow was ridiculous. it didnt so much flush. i was more like the bottom fell out and the water just dropped away. i thought a snot rocket would clog it. but nope, i bet i could flush a tennis ball. the larger port is the key. i have 3"..

you 4" guys..that is crazy. 4" is what they install at mexican bran muffin factories!

You should have blamed her for dropping it...in the shower...

I am talking about AFTER the upgrade...

Drink coffee everyday, do courtesy flushes, and never had a problem.

I put in an American standard champion 4 a few years ago and haven't plunged since, you can't clog that thing if you try.

I coulda gone all day without knowing that.

That's the secret! I was stopping up the low flush toilet in our new place 5 days a week. Now I make sure I flush as soon as the turd is out (helps keep down the smell too), then I sit there and read for 10 minutes, then I wipe and flush and everything goes down smooth, but I usually need a third flush to make things nice and tidy.

These low flush toilets sure do save water!

i cant figure out if i am happy or disappointed in myself that i participated in all three krap threads.

Have you ever heard Eddie Murprhy's stand-up about BMs?
There is some wisdom there about the things all guys can relate to....and comics to talk about. Welcome to the club.:D

How come no lady Pelicans have responded?

tabs, there is only one thing you can do, flush it at the half way point and then again when you're done.

Someone said this forum is in the toilet on the other thread. Time to flush it.

Growing up in Wva, we had a toilet that NEVER needed flushing. Never clogged up or overflowed. It was just a long walk on a cold night. I was back home this spring and it's still standing, little overgrown & needs a coat of paint. Been 30 years since anybody took a dump in it.

Reading this thread, I am now more certain than ever that we are living in the End Times.

Fortunately for us, the lady pelicans are all very much ladies.

I upgraded a cheap toilet that wouldn't flush a loogie with one of those super flushers. After about a year, the super flusher started to clog about 50% of the time. I'd plunge and snaked that bad boy hoping it would go back to it's swish gurgle gone mode.

I finally pulled the toilet up on a hunch. There, at the mouth of the drain in the floor was a iTunes gift card twirrling on oposite corners. It would flush fine as long as there was almost nothing in the water. As soon as the card "sensed" a load, it freaking turned sideways.

All I was out was the price of a wax ring.

They $h!t sunshine and butterflies and wipe with one square, it's not a problem for them.

Yeah I have tried that...problem is that my balls get wet...when the water rises...Some times they even bump into the bad boy that don't want to go down.
