Guest guest Posted October 21, 2006 Report Posted October 21, 2006 I believe the technical term for that is a courtesy flush. I highly recommend it. I've been able to, over the last 6 or so months " challenge " toilets' capabilities. Finally buy a plunger? I would hope you've always had a plunger. Those are sort of essential home instruments. I own two, one for each bathroom.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2006 Report Posted October 21, 2006 DH wanted me to clarify. It really has only happend 2 times. SO that really isnt'so bad. Thanks everyone for your tips. I do think part of it is the tiolet. It sometimes can't get the tp down when there is only 3 squars. Dumb. But i dont' think it is a water preasure issue for some reason. Have a great night/weekend everyone! Quote

Guest guest Posted October 22, 2006 Report Posted October 22, 2006 I do think this may be more embarrassing for females than males. Not to stereotype myself or other males but it's been my general perception that a male clogging a toilet without the aid of paper or other material would be more likely to view such an occurrence as a sign of digestive prowess rather than a problem. Of course that could change if there is no plunger present to solve the problem.

Guest guest Posted October 22, 2006 Report Posted October 22, 2006 I remember when I was young going to the bathroom at CU in Boulder and someone had written on the stall wall, " Flush twice it's a long way to the cafeteria.
