Lol.

Also, if it's just the handle that's missing, you can just pull the chain or operate the flapper by hand. The water in the tank is clean.

Are we being trolled?

This.
Had to do this at one of my jobs couple years ago. They cheap ass didn't buy no new handle for 3 months. Didn't stop me from droppin' bombs.
 
Go outside and let rip. It was good enough for humans for almost 6 million years so i assume it'll all come flooding back once you try. (Pardon the pun).
 
While this thread is already "above average interesting" - i bet it COULD get a lot more interesting if we assume their toilet stays broken for...say...a few weeks with people starting pooping in all kinds of places. I bet this will be gooooooood!!

The idea with "squeezing the poop down the drain" was already pretty smart...but i am sure that you and your mates will come up with other interesting ways of disposal.

The missing handle is not the problem (neither is the presumed ignorance of the OP about how to use a toilet) - the problem is the fact that the poop runs down to the neighbors once the toilet is flushed - so flushing the toilet is out of the question! (Whether "conventional flushing" using a handle or "manual flushing" using a bucket - doesn't matter)

There is also reason to believe that the handle was removed intentionally so people cant use the toilet..since it's broken.

I see this now but the he didn't update the OP with this info. It's not apparent from the OP.
 
Why I love owning a house. If my toilet or something else stops working I can just fix it right there and then and not have to worry about dealing with it or waiting for someone to come.
 
1. Go to dollar store
2. Buy $1 potato masher
3. Go home
4. Poop in bucket of water
5. Use $1 potato masher to make poop soup
6. Pour poop soup down tub drain
7. Win life
 
If i was that hard up to take a dump and my toilet was broken that badly, i would just go to the closest place with a public restroom

The only useful advice in this thread.

Update on situation: I came home to find a nice new toilet handle along with a note that said "BACK IN SERVICE BABY".
 
If you dump that bucket of water in it, it will 'flush'...OR just manually pull the seal out of the tank with your hand.

Just fix it ...
