My Room Mate just overflowed the toilet.

everyone needs to learn about the shutoff valve to the rear of that toilet. It's saved me a handful of times.
 
Yeah, i know about those, they can help with broken toilets too.

Unfortanatley, the roomie is not very smart like that.
 
Woooow. Just wow. Thanks for this meaningful insight into your life within the small cinder block walls of your college dorm room. Please let us know next time your roomie burps, or you fart, or the guy next door runs the hot water in the sink. NOT the cold water, just the hot water.

One time when I was working at BK I had a women's toilet explode all over me. Well not explode in the sense that the bowl blew up at me or anything but...

A lady clogged it up and I went to stop it but forgot the square key needed to turn it off. So I opened the back up to hold up the ball while my only other worker in the store found the key for me. When I pulled up the entire valve cracked off in my hand. Water was spraying everywhere. I eventually said F It and left it spraying as I went to get they key. I finally turned it off and walked out to this huge line all looking at me while I stood there drenched in toilet water. Allbeit the water was from the back of the tank and "clean" I felt so dirty. Had to call in another manager to take my place while I went for a shower.

When faster action is warranted, you can stop the flush midway through by reaching in the tank and closing the flapper by hand. (Emergency preparedness tip: Don't use the top of the toilet tank as a storage shelf.)

But that's where I keep my reading material!!! I tried a magazine rack next to the toilet, but on those off-nights, I peed all over it. Plus, it's just one more thing to move when you do the weekly Clean The House thing.
 
more often than not its actually the person before the last one is to blame. toilet plumbing congestion doesnt just happen at once for most part, it more of builds of over a period of time. are you sure you werent the one who used it before him? 😀
 
yet another reason I don't live on campus, i'm too high maintenance to share a bathroom...

On a nastier note, I was talking to my friend who works at Starbucks the other day. There's a Petco right next door and the mice have found a way of sneaking over, for their coffee breaks. She said it's getting outta hand because she was cleaning the toilet in the women's bathroom and there was some live mice swimming in it, with feces. I wonder which got their first, the feces or the mice. I wish I had pics...

Please, please tell me that someone who writes "My Room Mate just overflowed the toilet" and "I don't know waht he ate, but there was water all over, at least it dint smell that bad" isn't in college. :brokenheart:
 
my old roommate would talk about how he could cover the entire surface area of the water...completely front to the back and even along the sidwalls.

He did so in front of my girlfriend as well.
He is needless to say, not my roommate any more.
