The Unflushables - How to Deal with Floaters and the Likes?

Right now I've got one of them poops of the unflushable kind floating in my toilet bowl. Every once in a while my butt produces marvels of poop-engineering. Size consistency structural integrity - indestructible maverick poop.

The more I shape up, the more frequently I find a super poop after conclusion of my daily 'business sitting'. Anyways - before I stoop to crushing this marvel with a toilet brush, which is nasty business - I'm marinating the turd in toilet cleaner, hoping it dissolves and becomes flushable yet again.

Any of you super poopers got any advanced tips to force the turd down the drain without getting all up-close and nasty? I'd rather refrain from shoving it down with a brush.

Uh...

Eat it

Just stick your hand in there and break it up.

Seriously?

Go into the toilet like in Trainspotting.

I usually just have my sniper hit them with the plasma rifle.  I'll use the Headshot ability if it's a Heavy Floater, though.

Er...did you try just flushing a second time?

My god, I'm actually starting to miss the dating advice threads.

Dirty bastard.

Touch it's shoulder?

Isn't this @BiffMcBlumpkin's area of expertise?

Cool...

Fuck, you beat me to it.

God dammit, you both beat me to it. Was gonna make an assault flushing joke and all...

Now you are a man, my son.

I've never had an unflushable shit. But I know all too well the "endless wipe".

Use old razors to slice that shit.

This thread is just the right amount of stupid and bizarre.

There is no hope left!

Do this

@Everyones_A_Critic: if you've ever used a low flow toilet over extended periods of time, you'll get one eventually. That, my friend, I can assure.

Insert shitty pun *here*.

Since this is a bizarre thread, I'm going to give a bizarre suggestion - pour Coca-Cola on it. If that stuff can dissolve a piece of chicken, then certainly it should be able to eat away at a piece of shit. Even if it is going to take a while, you should do it for science.

EDIT: Never mind, a quick Google search reveals that the above was nothing more than a myth. Coca-cola does not, in fact, dissolve chicken.

I honestly thought this thread was about XCOM coming in. If the toilet bowl cleaner doesn't work, try CLR or something else acidic. If those don't work, you're pretty much out of chemical options, you'll have to go the mechanical route.

A kid I went to college with said he would keep a butter knife on the tank to chop his shit up so it would flush.

That's nasty

Christ.

I open up my web browser, and I'm treated to this. Thank you for ruining my afternoon. Just a few seconds ago, I was innocent. So innocent. I miss that time.

So this is what you've moved on to, Seppli? : (

I too assumed this thread as about xcom, and by flush you meant the assault class skill (which sucks compared to rapid fire). Turns out it wasn't; instead it was about poop. Sometimes that happens though.

What.. the fuck? Well, you obviously need to weaponize it.

Use toilet paper to cover the poop, then when flushing the toilet the paper will be flushed too causing the barrier to pull the poop down into the toilet with it.

Yes, does anyone know of ways to avoid the *endless wipe*? I hope this isn't too off topic, I would like information to combat this.

The key is to prevent it from happening. As it comes out your anus you can usually tell if it's going to be a big one. Force your anus to retract back to a closed state as it falls out cutting it into smaller bits. If need be flush after each one hits the water and you hear the plop sound.

Prayer! Why didn't I think of that. Pray it down!

Trap it with a "toilet paper net" - drape 3-4 pieces of TP over it then flush

should work

goddammit i didn't need that image in my head.

on topic if it doesnt dissolve then your sol(Shit outta luck)

touch its shoulder

Seriously, what the fuck. You are better off asking your washing machine what to do.

Success!

It went down in two phases.

• Phase 1: After some marinating, it got sucked into the drain - though its 'head' was still peeking out. Added some toilet cleaner and let it be for a while.
• Phase 2: Another wait and flush later, it's gone from view. I'm afraid it might be lurking right out of sight though. Good enough.

It got kinda dragged along the bottom of the bowl, and left a brown trail, kinda like a slug. So I need to get that toilet brush out after all. Nonetheless - poop crisis managed. Thanks a lot for your support. You guys are the best.

I call it "hoisting the mainsail".

Use to sail with a ship that had vacuum based plumbing, which meant the toilet bowl was pretty dry and you basically had to lay down a small buffer/cushion of toilet-paper before starting in order for the vacuum action to really get something to grab on to (in addition to keeping the bowl free of brown trails). Over the years it just became a habit, and now I always do it and as a result no floaters.

Welcome to healthy eating, dawg. Floaters are the norm. I have a very powerful flushing toilet for whatever reason, so it's not an issue.

give it a hat and name it gidget. now when people come over introduce it as your love child...and then touch it's shoulder.

Just pick it up and put it in your pocket and drop it into a bin when the opportunity comes.

At work I have the box boys take care of it. At home.. I don't have floaters.

It terrifies me that over three hours passed between the OP and this follow-up.

Terrifies...?
