    Mr plunger

    I really don't know what the family in the apartment above mine eats but I hear them plunging their toilet almost every day. Just thought I'd share that with you and possibly install the mental image in your heads. Enjoy.

    Yeah, we don't practice that around here. TP goes into the toilet. The first place I've seen that is Greece. There you can see notices in all toilets (hotels, apartments for rent, cafes and restaurants) telling you not to flush the tp but to throw it in the waste basket next to the toilet.

    Sorry for the intrusion, but what does "TP" means ?

    I've never heard of that before. Sounds really gross. That would be one stinky waste basket.

    Re: Mr plunger

    I'm not sure, they take it out with regular trash I think. I don't know the official reason why they do it. I've heard something like old/narrow pipes, but it's not like tp was invented 10 years ago that they didn't plan for it, and it's not that they do this in older parts of the country/town, they do it everywhere.

    Could be that the money in Greece wasn't compatible with sewage systems?

    Still, that basket would smell like an outhouse.
