A moment of pure terror....
is when you flush, and the bowl starts filling... and keeps filling... and keeps filling.

3. That's why God invented plungers, and a speedy reactionary impulse.

4. Is God so powerful
he can make a toilet so clogged it can't be plunged?

I love theology...

7. Surprisingly, I've found that screaming at the toilet doesn't help.
Doesn't keep me from trying the approach over and over again, though. :7

9. It's even worse when that happens and...
...you're flushing before using the potty yourself; because not only did the last 3 occupants neglected to flush, but kitty turds are floating around the top of the bowl.

...and you really have to go. :hurts:

12. Just say, "Shit Happens"
and glab a plunger before you flush again

That should do it

you're using one of those hi-tech Japanese toilets that sprays you and "cleans your undercarriage". Never used one. Heard of em though.
