Who should clean up the mess in the bathroom?

Post by Shagster »

I wake up this morning and walk in my bathroom to take a piss. The toilet was not flushed. We have a plunger right next to the toilet.

So I assumed that it was not clogged, because if it did clog it would have been fixed by whomever clogged it. I figured they forgot to flush, so I flushed it.

That joker overflowed everywhere. I had to go to class, so I left it, really pissed that my roomate would leave a toilet clogged when the ****ing plunger is right there.

Should I clean it up, leave it for him, or are we both at fault?

No one cleans up after me. I even throw my trash from the kitchen away in my room. I am the worlds most quit, clean, and keep to myself room mate.

I also informed him when he moved in our toilet was quirky and a courtesy flush was required for optimal flusher performance. Aparantly he took that as **** a 10 lb burrito, throw 2 rolls of toilet paper in with it, flush and walk away.

You go to GATech. The roommates there are often gross, socially-awkward WoW-kids. Tell him to clean up his mess and call housing. Disgusting.

People have been looking down at the top of my head (as I kneel before them) for years. Some even try to balance there beer on the sharp point on my head as they grab my ears.

First... you assumed. Never assume.

Perhaps (like you) he was in a hurry, saw the problem but didn't have time to fix it. Logic would demand a message/note indicating a overflow problem if flushed. Again, if he was in a hurry, a message might taken too much time.

For every "error" I can blame on my wife, I believe there are three that can be blamed on me. Talk to the guy and find out the history. Perhaps he has a phobia about plungers. Maybe he's had no luck in the past with plunging a toilet and didn't want to try it again. Maybe he's as ass. Is he? Is this typical behavior? Perhaps someone else left the bomb as a funny.

Only a 3 day discussion at an off-site facility can truly resolve this problem. A moderator and panel of experts is also recommended. If the problem can be repeated (step by step) perhaps insight to the point where you came in can be understood and appreciated.

Put the mess into a ziplock bag and place it on his pillow with a note of concern.

I would leave some exlax laden brownies on the counter and then wrap the toilet with saran wrap in the middle of the night. Let’s see him clean that mess up.

Its really his fault for not catching it time and letting it flood over. You can always shut the water off fast enough. Having said that I think its time to Crisco the bathroom floor and watch his roommate bust his ass one good time and then maybe he will get the hint.

Good Lord man!!!!! That log must have been the size of a large man's arm!!!!

Those turbo-flush pressurized toilet can flush body parts to include bone. He must have eaten 8 lbs. of peanut butter to cause that kind of blockage.

No... I don't want to see a picture of the guy.

Roundeye there is something that works faster and has no taste when mixed with a drink--Miralax. Used it for colonoscopy prep, that should tell you how well it works! :D Get the large bottle and put it in a pitcher with some Gatorade or whatever the clown drinks. 1/2 hour later, someone is going to be making a mess.

This battle is still waging.

Using the restroom on the other side of the room in exchange for helping them with their weekly cleaning.

I also took all the toilet paper (all purchased by me) out of that bathroom and put it in the other one.

So now he can **** a brick and have no toilet paper to boot.

:nod: Exactly. Not everyone is compatible. You've got to be comfortable in your own living space. There's no reason you should allow yourself to have a tense environment in your own home. You're supposed to go home from work and relax, enjoy things, decompress, etc.

You're most likely not able to change the other person.
