Both of us currently working from home. He has popped out to get some essentials on his lunch break. Uses the bathroom before he goes out. While he's out I need the loo, the dirty sod has left it blocked with the worlds biggest poo! It took me ages to unblock the toilet. I wouldn't have bothered if it weren't for the fact that I needed to go myself and we only have the one toilet in the house.

Seriously is it me or is it very disrespectful to go out and leave the bathroom in that state for the next person? He's a 43 year old, professional, intelligent man. Not a child. It's going to be a long old quarantine period if I'm having to deal with shit like that - pun intended.

Would you say anything?

Do what I do to my teenage DS’s - just shout very loudly (preferably whilst they are online with mates on Xbox), who’s left a massive turd in the toilet? That tends tend embarrass the culprit into dealing with it ASAP.

Meat poos are disgusting.

Keto, which is a lot of meat and vegetables is smell-less and infrequent. Like keto farts. It's the empty carbs that mess you up.

Seconding what MrsPratchett said - meat is not the problem.

I think generally people who close the lid to flush don't check, but people who just leave the lid open (Envy) can see if they've left anything behind.

I don’t get this, I have never EVER heard of people dropping toilet blocking turds in Australia. Even on here once someone was talking about having a “poo knife” to chop them into something smaller, I think from a turd from a young kid. Soooo perplexing, how does this happen, are UK sewer pipes super small or is some national dietary selection that I can’t work out. What on earth causes this????

Not checking the toilet after flushing explains the disgusting state of the ladies loos at work. Filth. Be considerate and leave the toilet in the same state you found it - clean!

There’s a customer toilet where I work. I can unwillingly confirm that toilet blocking turds are surprisingly common 🤢🤮💩

I’m so surprised people don’t check what they are passing
Abnormal poos according to the Bristol poo chart can indicate if there’s something wrong.

finn1020 I don't think our sewer pipes are particularly small but a good number of them have been in situ since Victorian times and so are beginning to creak a bit, unlike your probably brand new sparkling pipes in Australia.
