God damn this totally sucks. My toilet has been tempermental as of late and gets clogged super easily. I cleaned the bathroom area a bit with toilet paper and tossed it in the toilet when finished. It wasn't much at all but it seemed enough to clog the toilet. No biggie...I just wait a hour or two and it always unclogs itself after a few flushes.
Well that was yesterday and today it was still backed up. The water level was too high to flush so I peed and instinctively reached for the handle afterwards. As soon as my hand hit the handle, I realized my grave error. I tried to reach back but my neural synopsis already fired and my hand pushed down JUST barely enough to start the flush. So I stand there, with this "OH SH!T" look on my face as the already high water level raises up even further. Up and up until the first drop of water spills over.
I FREAK out, reaching for the scale, trashcan, floor mat(s) and basket near the toilet. I get them just in time as the water starts flowing all the hell over. Now these low water toilets are fine and all but have you ever seen a gallon of water on the floor? It seems like 97 gallons when you have to clean it up. Jesus tap dancing christ. I reluctantly (that's toilet water mind you) reached for some dirty towels and put them down after it was apparent that paper towels wouldn't do crap.
So I have all this piss water soaked towels that I have to rush down to the apartment washing machine and toss in, along with my floor mats.
That was seriously the worst thing I've experienced in a while. Now I have to pee upstairs in my roommate's bathroom, doh.
