Flooded Toilets

Sim Kid · 09-03-2009, 08:27 PM

I seriously wonder why, to some people, it appears to be so fun to flush paper towels and other non-flushable items down the toilet. Floods aren't fun....our janitors have enough on their hands cleaning the bathrooms and emptying the trash.

Toilet starts flooding. You turn of the water pressure before it starts spilling out, then unclog it (with a plunger or whatever else you've got), then wait for the water to drain out.

I seem to be the only person in this house who knows how to do that besides my dad, though, since everyone else seems to prefer to run out into the hall squealing as the bathroom floor floods with fece-water.

I usually can see the water being high as being a clue of a clog.

^^^Val, houses don't have janitors. This is clearly about shared bathrooms, in which the flow control is inaccessible to most users.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

WELL I'M SORRY, THE TITLE SAYS "FLOODED TOILETS" AND I FIGURED I'D SHARE MY OPINION ABOUT THEM.

You go, Val!

One kid tried flushing his undone homework so he could claim he "never got it".

You been to my campus? Someone actually tried to flush a T-Shirt down the toilet once.

I even saw the janitor laughing as she walked out with a soaked tee-shirt and said someone tried to flush it.

I've had to deal with flush-attempted underwear at a previous college we cleaned (only ever the mens rooms). I'd take underwear floating around in the bowl over most of the other things I put up with there, anyday.
