All The Weird Things That Happen After You Flush The Toilet

If you underwent potty training, you definitely know the process of flushing the toilet, though you probably don't know how toilets work. Like the causes behind airline turbulence, what happens when you flush the toilet is likely something you possess a vague understanding of without getting into the down-and-dirty of it, so to speak. But crazy facts about toilet plumbing exist out there, many happening directly beneath you as you drop a dookie. The mechanics of flushing, including why toilets are u-shaped, only serve to keep you better informed as a citizen, who deserves the right to know where your waste goes.

Gotta say it Weird history you're the S#! t. Civil engineering always sounded vague but now I get it. Roads bridges and water municipalities. Fun fact my friend Maureen just bought a house in Lake County very rural has septic tank. She had to have some poor guy come and remove a t-shirt that got flushed down her toilet and was happily living its best life blocking her tank. Good times. Fun fact often the septic tank emptying company calls their trucks 'Honey Bucket septic. Hey they pay good. My friend Steve was a plumber for 28 years. I asked him if he has any pearls of wisdom and he said, I tell you thus, in all things the butthole is the boss of the body. He meant the yuck rules. Like you gotta go when you gotta go and you gotta call him if the toilet is not functioning cause all that got to go!

My ex was being childish one night when we were taking a walk and I wasn't paying attention to his Pokemon Go chatter. No hate on Pokemon Go, he KNEW I had no interest before this monent. Anyway, because I wasn't paying attention and just uh huh yeah cool answering. he said something about the heater stacks being bio waste burn off fueled. I went Cool. Wait, what?
Edit: I realized it doesn't sound childish, his behavior had been very mocking and pouty. To be clear.

I actually learned all about this after my local state Congresswoman (and former sec of state) became Water Commissioner after a couple big companies were dumping massive pollution in our water. She claimed she asked them to stop and they freely did so (I highly doubt that. After that, they stopped sending us our water report (that we got annually and make it hard to find online. Then she decided to take a large payout (I mean paycut )to be our Water Commissioner.

Just think. the romans had plumbing like this thousands of years ago and even pumped water into the city. Indoor plumbing didnt become common in first world countries until like the 1930s. Both of my grandparents on my mom's side were born in the 30s and their families still used outhouses. My grandparents didnt have indoor plumbing until they got married and moved together in the 50s! Pretty crazy.

Do a video on Charles the 5th of the Holy Roman Empire. He had control of Spain and Central Europe in the 15th century. It would be interesting to talk about the feud between him and Martin Luther. He struggled to maintain him empire in the end and split it between his sons.

Speaking of water treatment, would you consider a video on the use of fluoride in public water? You know when they started putting fluoride in the water? 1947. How's that for your world wide commie conspiracy. Next they will put it in ice cream. Children's ice cream.

The Blue Man Group did a great skit on the inter-connectivity of humans that almost all of us share. The Internet? No. The sewer system!
(My view on this. Out of sight, out of mind. Once it's flushed, it's no longer my problem. That's why I pay taxes, lol)

I haven't had the float flush system since the pressure switch became available in the early 80s. Just came back from the UK, and they're pumping untreated sewage into the ocean, lakes, and streams. You can't go near the water for fear of getting sick.

My husband designed and built sewage treatment plants. One time an emergency occurred at the plant and I had to go with him to the plant. The smell horrible! After about an hour I called my mom and told her I can t smell it anymore! I m scared!

My mom used to flush bleach water down their toilet much to my dad s irritation since they had a septic tank. Also my dad and brothers never flushed my toilets after they did number one. I guess old habits die hard.

I am going to check out the Weird History video The History of Toilets (from the thumbnail recommendations at the end, already saw the first one) and the video Smelly Facts About London's The Great Stink of 1858!

A treatment plant I am familiar with, doesn t add chemicals at the end before going back to the river. The water travels through a building with banks of UV light to kill the remaining bacteria in the water.

2: 22 The novel Morlock Night by K. W. Jeter (1979) is the first steampunk novel.
Jeter coined the term steampunk in 1987 when he was describing it and other novels by James Blaylock and Tim Powers.

How about the aging of infrastructure (mainly bridges? Maybe about the repairs and the work required, to bring infrastructure up to modern standards? Thanks for always showing up!

Uhhhhhhh I think I need to go call my parents because I'm pretty sure they haven't cleared their septic tank at all since they moved in and replaced it.

I watched the tv series when before that.

10: 04 The documentary series Arnold (2023, about Arnold Schwarzneggar's life, is fascinating and inspiring.
It's very helpful for understanding how he became such a phenomena.

I used to work in a factory that was near the local waste treatment plant. It was pretty fragrant in the summer time. After the water gets treated it is cycled into the Rock River.

Its crazy to think that less than 90 years ago my grandparents used a bed pan if they had to pee in the middle of the night and didn't want to go to the outhouse in the dark.
