Toilet clog horror story.

Bump!

was obama in their swimming around doing reggie love?

Have a blessed day, you have helped so many people with your work, you are truly an angel.

One of the great fears of
Life

We have a septic tank. One year just after Christmas gathering our toilet backed up. Couldn't clear the pipe.
opened septic and found full size bath towel sticking halfway out of the septic drain pipe. How someone got that mutha down the toilet still astounds us, but it happened.

now that must have took some determination

The shampoo and hot water trick worked for me after my nephew came to visit.

Bad enough in your own house........an absolute crisis when in somebody else's house.

we stayed in an old suite hotel once... my son took a very large poop & it wouldn't go down. after waiting hours for the maintenance dept to come clean it out... i went into the kitchen & got a very large knife & serving spoon & chopped that thingy up.
i was too grossed out to wash the utensils, so I left them in the bottom of the dishwasher & checked out...

How many "courics" did it weigh?

clay pipes???

Lots of homes built before the 60's and the advent of PVC pipes had clay pipes from the house to the sewer main. Tree's love them cause all the clay pipes leak a little eventually and tree roots seek out the moisture and grow into the pipes causing clogs.

remember reading people using coca cola, and it's supposed to work wonders.

thanks, I see how it could really be a problem, but I know someone where a tree actually found a way to grow into a PVC pipe and wrecked his entire system he had to spend thousands

Now that's who I want working on my shitter

DONT MEAN NOTHIN MAN, thank you. I haven't laughed this hard on GLP in ages.


PS, I am also a plumber....

poops is as poops does, it don't mean nothin man, it don't mean nothin!

hear the gurgle of the pipe

watch out

here they come

HAHAHAHA!AAAHAHAHAAA
Sir, Mr "it don't mean nothin man" thank you for helping me forget about the shitty day I had.

Turd chaser.

No offense it's just a funny name I heard a coworker call plumbers many years ago.

Nuke your toilet.only solution

OP! Do what i do. After wiping your ass, throw the used toilet paper into the waste basket and never into the toilet. Also NO other paper products at all - None.
Get the whole sewer pipe cleaned out and it will never back up again.

Kids can seriously take some big freaking dumps, not sure how they do it.

This has to be in the top ten funniest threads on glp

That's life. Gives you back bone.
Good job handling it and thank you for sharing.
