Your real curse is that it's that easy to clog your main sewerage connection.

The worst I've ever had to deal with is the water in the trap getting blown out into the room when they send the cleaner down the sewer main in my street every year or so. Sometimes I notice the warning letter and make sure the seats are down, but not always :barf:

Is…is this normal? The only time my main has ever been clogged is when I was on the road and my wife and daughter chose to use paper towels for a couple days instead of going to the store and getting toilet paper.

I'll let you imagine the cursed image here.

My brother had a macerator unit (when you don't have a full sized waste pipe it... Macerates) in the top floor of the house he bought, it was in a little roof awning to the side of the room. Directly above the master bedroom.

It had got jammed due to never having had any maintenance, then the week after they got the floors replaced in the main bedroom it exploded and filled the awning with several weeks of partially macerated sewage. Which then broke through the ceiling.

Of course they just never used that toilet again and reattached the pipes to the macerator.

Now they're selling their house and it's listed as perfectly fine.

Yeah, the same happens in skyscrapers too. I worked as the janitor in Burj Khalifa for a while, and had to go through every toilet in the building to find where the clog is. I finally quit when the maintenance lifts was out of order and we weren't allowed to use guest elevators.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
