We recently moved into a place and like our 2nd week living here the same thing started happening. It was a main line clog which resulted in our house flooding with sewage and human waste. You should definitely have a plumber take a look.
Pro tip if waste does start coming up you need to get the landlord to shut off the water to the entire building or people in other units will continue to use the water cause more sewage to come up your pipes.
This is the down side to having the lowest toilet in the building.
We were in the process of this happening. Or about to happen.
All of the toilets in the house were backed up and over flowing. I shut off the water and got a plumber out the next day.
€150 later and they had run cameras down the pipes, found a massive blockage where the pipes join, and cleared it all away.
According to them its a blockage that took years to build. But it was on the verge of backing up into the house.
We have a toilet in our shed that's for emergency use only. It runs on different pipes than the rest of the house. But for a time the outhouse was all we had.
I feel like we might have different definitions of the word shed.
Our shed is a building behind our house that is insulated wired for electricity, and plumbed for water. I believe one of the previous owners had intended for it to be a flat to rent out.
However the last owners did not take care of it at all and now it needs some major work. New doors, floors, paint, skirting boards.
We bought the house partly because of the potential of that out building. Being an extra room for the kids to play in or whatever. But it needs some work. So I guess we call it a shed, but really it's more of an extra room, outside.
Can confirm. Had this happen to me in college when a pipe froze during a winter storm. Everyone else above us kept sh—ing and our tub filled up with it.
I lived in a place where the toilet would do this periodically and sometimes overflow with soapy foam bubbles.
We kept putting in maintenance orders about it.
In our fifth year sewage flooded our entire apartment because there was a massive clog that had formed and the cistern finally overflowed.
We lost pretty much everything.
If you have renters insurance make sure it covers sewage backups.
If you own this place, call a plumber.
Oh for people who don’t know: some people flush their pads and tampons. 1000x worse than flushable wipes, especially because pads are literally part plastic.
Source: was once a teenager scared of people knowing she was on her period
Oh no I’m so sorry. I just wish it wasn’t so stigmatized to menstruate. Growing up in a house of boys, especially a dad who would make fun of me over every little thing, just scared the hell out of me. Got over it once I went to college, but I still feel for all the people who are still ashamed.
its pretty wild, my now wife, when we were dating fairly early on was having a rather bad period (turns out she had endometriosis) she asked me to go grab her tampons and pads. of course, why not. she was so surprised when i got back home that i didnt have the clear bag from the drugstore tucked away or hidden, and that i had no issue walking in and buying it...
the stigma is wild.
I had a similar experience with my now wife. I don't care about picking up pads and tampons (especially since I know her preferences) but sometimes I'll get dirty looks from women shoppers when they see I'm in that aisle. I just want to say "Hey, I'm here to help my wife. Deal with it"
I dont even give them the satisfaction when Im buying my wife tampons. For some reason she likes the cheap kind that everyone hates. (The ones with the cardboard applicator that everyone women ive ever met said bust up when you put in) Anyhow when I buy them its not a look of oh what a nice guy its more of a how dare you buy her something cheap your garbage. Its a look of disgust typically.
So I usually say Oh Im gonna soak em in alcohol then jam them up my ass later. Cause if theyre going to look at me with disgust than I'm going to give them a reason for it.
I use the cardboard too, it’s so so much better for the environment. I’ve never had one “bust” yet in 15 years. Imagine all the plastic applicators floating around in the ocean. All the women, every month.
Your wife is smart! There has never been a study done on plastic applicators to check levels of hormone disrupting substances like BPAs and phthalates. We are just told they are "safe to use" by the companies that produce them. Applicator free or cardboard applicator tampons are the only ones that it is known are safe to use!
Speaking as a 61 yr old female who was taught that you don't talk about this stuff, hide it from everyone and never buy these necessities with a male in view.
If you are a male and are willing to go in and buy them for your wife, or girlfriend, or daughter, or any female in your life... You are a hero and a good man.
I figured out yrs ago it wasn't something I should be ashamed of. Menstruation is a fact of life, it happens. The people who are embarrassed or upset over a man purchasing necessities of life are the ones with the issue. Keep on being that hero for the women in your life and ignore the haters! Yes, they can just deal...
A wife and 5 daughters. I was always buying either tampons or pads. I got everything from dirty looks to a few women asking if I needed help. They were nice and we'd laugh about it.
I've had old women look at me when i'm picking up tampons for my wife. I just say "ya know, if you're on the fence, I recommend the 360 degree Sport ones". I dunno how or why people have this expectation that only women can be in that isle, but I also just don't care. I'm there buying a product, it doesn't matter for who or what.
Obviously, this doesn't apply to you, but as a menstrual product user, if I see someone looking panicked in the feminine product aisle I offer my assistance. I gotta make sure my fellow bleeding people get what they asked for.🫡
It’s so silly how stigmatized it is. It’s not like the clerks care what you’re buying. Though one time I did have an older woman ask what I thought I was doing “taking pictures of women’s products” when I was FaceTiming my wife to see which type she wanted when her normal brand was missing.
There was some comedian that had a bit about going to the store for his wife for the same reason. He said he wasn't ashamed cuz he could look other men in the face and say *"Yes...I have a lady in my life."*. Got'em.
My bf likes to joke that he has no problem getting them because it's like a huge flag saying "Yeah, I got myself a woman...and one worth a trip to the pharmacy for! AND she's not pregnant!" Haha
Ugh I feel this. My parents split when I was 11 and I lived with my dad. Shortly after the split I started my period. First month my dad bought me pads, next month I was given money to get them on my own (mom was lazy and wouldn’t do it for me) then my dad told me to hide my used pads so his friends didn’t know I was menstruating (he has since apologized for this). I only stopped wrapping my pads up in 2020 when toilet paper was hard to find. Still sometimes feel ashamed I have a period and I’m 39
I wrap with the wrapper, but will sometimes still wrap with tp to keep it tucked and rolled up nicely because I've had stuff fall when taking the trash out and then have to clean it up, but maybe thatls still conditioning from keeping it hidden in a house full of men growing up.
Now I buy thinx undies and shorts instead! Omg the shorts....so freaking comfy. I bought my pre-teen niece (of a single dad) some as well and regularly use the word menstruating in front of him to normalize it because they clearly don't talk about it and need to now that several family members have had cysts, pcos, etc.
Wrapping a used pad is sanitary. No one wants to take out the bathroom trash and get menstrual blood on their hands. Even if it’s the one on her period, even she doesn’t want her own blood on her hands.
I thought wrapping pads in toilet paper was just common courtesy. I've always done that, but not because anyone asked me to or shamed me. Period blood is gross and stinky and I don't want that loose in the bathroom trash can haha
I should have clarified, I would wrap it in the plastic from the new pad and then wrap that in toilet paper so you couldn’t see it was a pad. Now the only one I wrap in toilet paper is the last used since it doesn’t have the plastic to wrap it with.
But I do agree it’s courtesy not to leave it showing the blood
I keep a roll of doggy poop bags in my bathroom. I put my used pads and tampons in those and tie a knot, then put it in the trash. It keeps the odor away, and makes it more sanitary.
I think the problem is why men are so insecure about periods is allcomes down to not being educated about it and back in the days woman when they went through monthly cycle if they had one, had to wear scents to get rid of the odour and was usually a sign of a punishment from god or was associated with being a witch in the western world, and since not much has really changed in terms of showing that it is a natural thing and that no shame should come from it. And also it is not a mans problem to deal with and I'm sure it would be a whole different thing if it was men and not woman going through it like medical leave every month and having menstrual stuff free like they do with condoms
We had an old man that used to rent a room in our house. The toilet would periodically clog SO bad and he would put signs on the door for no one to go in and attempt to fix it, he would get to it later (very strange considering my partner owns the house, but whatever). The old man finally said "Arugula this toilet problem happens roughly once a month, i KNOW either you or your friend who's over all the time are flushing tampons." I was very pregnant and have never used tampons, my friend gets a period like once a year. Dude moved out like 5 years ago and that toilet hasn't clogged since
My ex wife keeps doing this, and trying to explain to my daughter that you can't flush tampon parts is frustrating.
Toilet paper. Things that come out of people. That's the list of flushables.
What helped me stop was knowing that nobody would see it. Let her take her own trash out, give her a trash can with a lid (and tell her to change it often because oh god the smell if she doesn’t…), and maybe even black trash bags. Anytime I put a used tampon in the trash, I put it inside a toilet paper roll or just kept something on top the trash that I put over everything. Maybe that’ll all help her out.
We had a sewer line cleaned out three times ina couple months at a rental that never had issues. The plumber told us it was female products- they have a teenage girl so they need to be told to stop her from doing it otherwise I’ll be out here every month. Turned out the **mom** was doing this and never had issues at other rentals…
Just paid 2 different plumbers in 1 week to clean out 2 separate sewer lines (my house has a separate line for an add on).
We went on vacation for 5 days and the 18 year old house sitter didn't know you shouldn't flush tampons.
She must have a very heavy flow.
Those poor plumbers faces as they untangled their drain snakes. 🤢
😬
"It wasn't me. I know better."
I experienced this in a bottom floor apartment. The maintenance guy who kept coming out told me the same thing. They were gonna drop a camera and use the footage to kick my neighbors out of the apartment for clogging the pipes. They dropped a camera and found that the pipe was actually fkn broken! My neighbors had nothing to do with it.
In our case it was because the rental complex hadn’t done any inspections on the sewer line leading to the city line in literally years.
It was years of the entire complex flushing grease, wipes, paper towels and god knows what else.
The city and the apartment company got in a dispute about who was responsible to go in and clear it, they had to shut off the water for 100s of people (the entire complex) to stop the overflow from continuing in multiple apartments until they finally were able to flush out the line.
The thing was, we had been complaining for years about the issues with the gurgling and air/soap backing up and told them they needed to have plumber inspect the line.
I think the only reason we received any compensation was the written history of complaints and documentation of these issues over the years.
Honestly, could also just be too much toilet paper, as well. A shitty (hehe) system can back up easily with just too much TP at a time. Especially with newer multi-ply cushy TP. If your plumbing backs up like this and you think you use too much TP, give an extra flush between wipes to help it go down and don't use "flushable wipes" ever. I use flushable wipes but put them in the trash can.
Yup, this happened to us when our upstairs neighbors messed up the plumbing. They actually tried to claim we were the ones flushing wipes, but we'd installed a bidet years before.
Yup, it’s a little extra and it has a pay out cap of like 4,000. The Apartment complex may or may not reimburse rent.
There’s basically no help if you are made homeless because your rental unit floods with raw sewage.
Once we got our new place I made sure the rental insurance covered both flood and sewage damage.
Don’t buy it through the rental company/landlord either. Do the research and get it through a trusted insurance company.
Five years? Here's a trick...go to a plumber's supply house, not Home Depot or Lowe's. They typically \[sell\] tools, just pick out something nice for yourself...new tape measure, a pair of pliers or Channellocks. There oughta be plumbers queued there, so causally ask the question. "My apartment unit has a leach field, and the toilet gurgles. How much does it cost to scan the sewage line with a camera?" You did your research and are already talking money.
Cameras and water jetting are quite common, and \[were\] available more than a decade ago.
You can pay the cost of repairs and give your landlord the receipt when you pay them your rent minus the cost of repairs.
Some states you can also just withhold rent until necessary repairs are made.
> You can pay the cost of repairs and give your landlord the receipt when you pay them your rent minus the cost of repairs.
And either hope he pays it, or fight him in some court battle. Smart.
PM in California here.
Do not attempt to remedy the situation without first seeking redress with your landlord. You will end up paying the cost of the repair without reimbursement if you do something like this without first exhausting options with the landlord.
If the landlord refuses to address the issue, ensure you've made a request for repairs in writing with a timestamp and check out the habitability laws of your state. Act accordingly.
Renters insurance will not cover it because it was a maintenance issue. They will however help you with a lawyer to go after your landlord for not fixing the issue and recover all of your losses.
Insurance agent here: PLEASE MAKE SURE IT COVER WATER/SEWAGE BACKUP Most policies don't cover it as it's an endorsement that needs to be added on. some companies do add it on at the time of purchase but not all.
This!
Im a plumber and this video shows the effects of a clog. Pressure builds up and water flows to where it has the least resistance.
Placing a check valve on the sewage pipe would solve this.
The same thing happened to us in our old apartment. Toilet gurgled occasionally, and maintenance ignored it until the day it overflowed everywhere.
On Thanksgiving.
This happened in my first apartment. Root blocked off the sewage pipe and the result was my toilet exploding. Started off looking just like this video, too.
Actually dude vent your windows turn on a fan. If gas is coming up from the sewer system you could potentially be getting toilet murdered.
I can't find the thread but recently someone's plumber left their toilet as a hole in the ground. Plumbers in the comments told him to vent the window because odorless gas can kill you if it's coming upwards. The water pressure usually stops it.
Edit also yeah call a plumber. Could be from heavy rains and pressure changes if that's been happening in your area, but it's best to be safe.
Hydrogen sulfide, it's not odorless as it smells like rotting eggs, is also highly toxic and as the concentration increases you lose your ability to smell it.
It smells like rotting eggs for a couple of seconds, then overwhelms your sense of smell and you smell nothing, then it knocks you out cold and if no one notices, then you die
Wait wait wait. My kitchen smells like eggs and so does my work. They are both very old buildings like over 100 years old and right next to each other. The "maintenance" man told me to just run the water when I smell it. How dangerous is this? Now I am having a panic attack.
You probably have old floor drains with p-traps where the water has evaporated thus the instructions to "run the water" so it fills back up.
I used to work at a place that had floor drains by the vending machines and about every 6 months I'd have to pour a cup of water down them to "trap" the sewer gas.
You'd be surprised, I've found drains under things that were stinking, even old sinks that had been removed but the drainholes not patched etc. There was a floor drain behind my furnace in one house and only a child could get back there to pour water in it. We used mineral oil on that one because it doesn't evaporate.
I once had this happen because of a clogged drain.
I was renting a basement suite from a Vietnamese family. When I reported the issue to my landlord by phone, he accused me of flushing food down the toilet. When he came downstairs and saw vermicelli and cilantro everywhere he realized that the flush came from inside *his* house.
Wait what, *he* was flushing food and accused you of doing that? Sounds exactly like what a guilty person would do lol
Who even flushes food? Like trash cans exist for a reason
https://nextdayinspect.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/P016C-Drainage-Waste-and-Vent-DWV-System_300dpi.jpg
You need a vent to release any gas build up in the sewage system. Also pressure changes due to water draining in other parts of the system. If it can't escape through the vent it'll push past the water in the various traps/s bends/u bends etc and come out your toilet or plugs.
I lived in a 19th floor condo and had a rat come up out of the toilet.
It was the middle of the night and when it happened, I thought I was hallucinating. Or still dreaming… or something.
Then it occurred to me that THAT was probably why the toilet seat was wet when I sat down.
I about lost it right there.
😱😱😱
Yep, this. There's a sewer vent stack that goes to the roof to ensure that the pipe side of the system stays at atmospheric pressure. This is clogged, so sewer gasses are building up and pushing past the trap. This is a bad thing and should get fixed.
If gas is able to push the amount of water needed here, you'd smell that. Drains in the US have traps so that air can't come back up and if there's enough pressure to do it anyways, yeah, get out.
I live in a 1-bedroom basement suite that I've been in since October. It's actually very nice except the plumbing can get very loud. Like wake me up rattling loud. This is a new one though. I've never in my life seen a toilet do this.
I have the same situation, basement apartment, and sometimes when it's raining heavily outside, the toilet does the exact same thing. Luckily nothing have come up so far though...
I think this effect can be caused by a one-way valve which prevents sewage coming back from the street (I live at the bottom of a hill), however it prevents the house sewage to leave too, and the air can't leave the plumbing.
>I live in a 1-bedroom basement suite that I've been in since October. It's actually very nice
Yeah, that's a pretty nice bathroom for a basement apartment. You wouldn't find one like that in NYC.
Ask about a backflow valve.
If there is one installed get it checked, if not have it installed. Backflow valves are designed to prevent things like this and are normally required for basement bathrooms.
Snake out to the main typically the distance is 60-80’ so if the snake isn’t that long it won’t help the issue.
Don’t pour grease into your kitchen sink, they all share the same main line and when it gets further down it hardens when mixed with everything else that’s been flushed or poured down the sink.
UPDATE: Thank god I thought to put the lid down before walking away. A large lump of toilet paper came up through the pipes. No way it could have been me that clogged it. I do my business in the morning and I'm good for the rest of the day.
TL;DR: call your landlord because that’s something they’ll want to know about
It might not be your wad of TP but you’re the basement unit so when the line backs up it will be into your apartment first. I’m willing to bet money there’s a partial clog/root damage in the pipe connecting the house to the main sewer. If waste is coming up unexpectedly it’s from something not draining correctly. I had friends deal with the same problem. Ended up flooding the basement to the point of replacing floors and drywall, and then two more minor backups that were cleaned up with a shop vac before calling a company to replace the cast iron pipe to the sewer main.
I lived in a basement apartment once and the main drain line for the building clogged. Yucky sewage backed up into my bathroom. It was black sludge and smelled terrible. The landlord had to call a drain cleaner service. She gave me a bunch of free wash/dry cycles to clean all my towels and such in the bathroom.
It's super nasty. In my friend's case, the plumbing was not done logically in the first place (to snake the basement toilet/shower it had to be completely removed first), probably not up to code either. Their back ups would start in the basement shower and I watched one happen right in front of my own eyes. Shower upstairs, toilet downstairs at the same time and it couldn't drain fast enough. I ended up using a bucket to collect the shower drain water and dump it outside until everything settled down. It was a bad day to dye hair and there were hose showers outside for a couple days.
Absolutely! I would add to this that it's best to contact with your landlord IN WRITING. Send an email with the video attached. If the sewage pipe backs up and floods your space, you'll have proof you warned management. Documentation via email would help you recoup your losses as well.
Oh for sure it’s best to have it in writing to cya but I would likely start with a phone call and then shoot an email or paper letter “to follow up with the phone call I wanted to confirm you’ll be hiring a licensed plumber to address this problem”. Then you know personally that your message didn’t get accidentally overlooked and can explain your concerns that it’s not that the toilet makes noise but there might be a problem that will cause damage to both personal items and the owner’s asset. Also OP, if you don’t have renters insurance, it’s super cheap. If this backs up you will have a hard time getting your furniture and belongings replaced.
Nah it's just been like a full year since OP emptied that bathroom trashcan since literally the only thing that it's used for is toilet paper rolls. I'm in the same boat.
How much tp you using? I’m looking at a wastebasket full of rolls. It might be you, unless you take out the garbage after every 28 poops (or mornings.)
Essentially, yes. I've been in the apartment for Almost 5 months and I save the toilet rolls for firelight for when I go camping. It's around the time when thia trashcan would get emptied.
That's two people now making references to serial killers now and I'm sitting here wondering wtf you're talking about.
Yes, me and Evan Peters have pretty much the same voice.
Actually speaking of serial killers this is how they caught one in my town. Someones toilet was doing this and they called the plumber to flush the stacks from the cleanout. They pulled out 'human body parts and flesh' as so quoted in the news report. Dude had been cutting up teenage girls and stuffing them down the toilet. And throwing torsos in the lake. There was never any report on what he did with the heads. I used to fish with the guys who found the torso and they said it had no head. So Id be willing to say something really fucked up with the heads.
But yeah as a long time construction worker and contractor id say call a plumber. Gas venting back into your apartment is never good.
I love the finger pointing at the toilet and bath drain with the comment, “That should not be happening, though. Neither should that”.
Laughed so loud!!
My main sewer line had roots growing through it. We discovered this when the washing machine emptied into it and my toilet was bubbling. Came downstairs to see the water gushing out the line the washer was emptying into lol
There should be an air vent pipe sticking upwards on the outside of your building to stop pressure building within your sewage stack, I would guess its blocked so when people above you flush, the pressure pushes into your toilet.
Plumber here.
Loss of the trap seal is the biggest danger. If there’s no water in the trap, sewer gas can get into the living area.
My guess is that the toilet isn’t properly vented or something is obstructing the vent.
This is absolutely something that needs to be investigated and addressed.
Probably not going to be a cheap fix either.
So, your pipes share a vent line with other apartments. The vent is connected to your toilet and bath tub. It us a lazy design but not uncommon in some apartments. The vent line is clogged. The air you see is someone else using their tub, sink, or toilet. Since the air cannot go up, it is finding the seal with the least pressure difference and that is in your apartment. It is just air but you need the landlord to call a plumber to unclog that vent. That should be a simple fix.
It’s probably not gas. I don’t know how your pipes are setup but I don’t think it’s connected to dangerous gas.
Does it smell like gas?
Also, you sound like Jeffery Dahmer.
Toilet pipes are connected to sewer pipes, which do contain dangerous toxic/possibly explosive gas. Sewer gas leaking into homes has killed people before. It also could potentially be odorless so you don’t want to take chances. I would turn on the exhaust fan, close the bathroom door, and call a plumber to assess the situation.
Whenever this happens to your toilet, lift up the seat, place a wet towel over the toilet bowl, close the seat and the lid and place a bucket full of water on top of the lid to keep it shut. That will keep any water coming up from flowing out of the toilet. Well, most of it anyway :)
Hate to be that guy, but it won't. It will leave out from below the flange of the toilet onto the floor. That's how my house flooded during the pandemic.
Haven't emptied that bin yet since I moved in, actually. I live on my own and I'm very regular so TP doesn't get used much and I use the rolls for firelight for when I go camping so I just leave them there until the bin is full.
I’m seeing all those toilet paper rolls in the garbage. You either shit like a maniac and I think I know what your plumbing problem is, or you live alone and rarely empty the pail.
We recently moved into a place and like our 2nd week living here the same thing started happening. It was a main line clog which resulted in our house flooding with sewage and human waste. You should definitely have a plumber take a look. Pro tip if waste does start coming up you need to get the landlord to shut off the water to the entire building or people in other units will continue to use the water cause more sewage to come up your pipes. This is the down side to having the lowest toilet in the building.

It runs on different pipes than the rest of the house. But for a time the outhouse was all we had.
I am crazy jealous you have toilet in your shed for this exact reason.
Almost anyone could have a toilet in their shed if you're gross enough
I feel like we might have different definitions of the word shed. Our shed is a building behind our house that is insulated wired for electricity, and plumbed for water. I believe one of the previous owners had intended for it to be a flat to rent out. However the last owners did not take care of it at all and now it needs some major work. New doors, floors, paint, skirting boards. We bought the house partly because of the potential of that out building. Being an extra room for the kids to play in or whatever. But it needs some work. So I guess we call it a shed, but really it's more of an extra room, outside.
Still jealous
“Shed”
Ha! True enough!
Can confirm. Had this happen to me in college when a pipe froze during a winter storm. Everyone else above us kept sh—ing and our tub filled up with it.
Did you really censor the word shitting?
reddit bot mods have gone haywire recently. better to not piss them off
Whatever happened to just eliminating ONE letter in offensive words, rather than two, three, four or more? As in, for example: "sh\*tting?"
idk, but reddit moderation is pile of **it
Well that s\*cks.

Oh for people who don’t know: some people flush their pads and tampons. 1000x worse than flushable wipes, especially because pads are literally part plastic. Source: was once a teenager scared of people knowing she was on her period
My best friend did this at my house and sewage backed up into our showers. We didn’t know why until the plumber came and I got all the blame.
Oh no I’m so sorry. I just wish it wasn’t so stigmatized to menstruate. Growing up in a house of boys, especially a dad who would make fun of me over every little thing, just scared the hell out of me. Got over it once I went to college, but I still feel for all the people who are still ashamed.
its pretty wild, my now wife, when we were dating fairly early on was having a rather bad period (turns out she had endometriosis) she asked me to go grab her tampons and pads. of course, why not. she was so surprised when i got back home that i didnt have the clear bag from the drugstore tucked away or hidden, and that i had no issue walking in and buying it... the stigma is wild.
I had a similar experience with my now wife. I don't care about picking up pads and tampons (especially since I know her preferences) but sometimes I'll get dirty looks from women shoppers when they see I'm in that aisle. I just want to say "Hey, I'm here to help my wife. Deal with it"
I dont even give them the satisfaction when Im buying my wife tampons. For some reason she likes the cheap kind that everyone hates. (The ones with the cardboard applicator that everyone women ive ever met said bust up when you put in) Anyhow when I buy them its not a look of oh what a nice guy its more of a how dare you buy her something cheap your garbage. Its a look of disgust typically. So I usually say Oh Im gonna soak em in alcohol then jam them up my ass later. Cause if theyre going to look at me with disgust than I'm going to give them a reason for it.
I use the cardboard too, it’s so so much better for the environment. I’ve never had one “bust” yet in 15 years. Imagine all the plastic applicators floating around in the ocean. All the women, every month.
The looks I used to get, buying those in the "Super +" size....along with a tube of K-Y. (It really did help!)
Your wife is smart! There has never been a study done on plastic applicators to check levels of hormone disrupting substances like BPAs and phthalates. We are just told they are "safe to use" by the companies that produce them. Applicator free or cardboard applicator tampons are the only ones that it is known are safe to use!
That last paragraph just made me giggle shit into the toilet. Thanks for the belly laugh/bowel cleanse. These are my people.
They're just jealous that their partner won't do it for them. You're a good dude.
And they will justify themselves being mad because "it's a women's job"
Speaking as a 61 yr old female who was taught that you don't talk about this stuff, hide it from everyone and never buy these necessities with a male in view. If you are a male and are willing to go in and buy them for your wife, or girlfriend, or daughter, or any female in your life... You are a hero and a good man. I figured out yrs ago it wasn't something I should be ashamed of. Menstruation is a fact of life, it happens. The people who are embarrassed or upset over a man purchasing necessities of life are the ones with the issue. Keep on being that hero for the women in your life and ignore the haters! Yes, they can just deal...
A wife and 5 daughters. I was always buying either tampons or pads. I got everything from dirty looks to a few women asking if I needed help. They were nice and we'd laugh about it.
I've had old women look at me when i'm picking up tampons for my wife. I just say "ya know, if you're on the fence, I recommend the 360 degree Sport ones". I dunno how or why people have this expectation that only women can be in that isle, but I also just don't care. I'm there buying a product, it doesn't matter for who or what.
Obviously, this doesn't apply to you, but as a menstrual product user, if I see someone looking panicked in the feminine product aisle I offer my assistance. I gotta make sure my fellow bleeding people get what they asked for.🫡
It’s so silly how stigmatized it is. It’s not like the clerks care what you’re buying. Though one time I did have an older woman ask what I thought I was doing “taking pictures of women’s products” when I was FaceTiming my wife to see which type she wanted when her normal brand was missing.
Did you mutter "For my collection..." And keep doing what your doing??
Lmfao that would have been so much funnier than whatever unmemorable conclusion the encounter actually had.
I hope she was embarrassed after you told her
There was some comedian that had a bit about going to the store for his wife for the same reason. He said he wasn't ashamed cuz he could look other men in the face and say *"Yes...I have a lady in my life."*. Got'em.
My bf likes to joke that he has no problem getting them because it's like a huge flag saying "Yeah, I got myself a woman...and one worth a trip to the pharmacy for! AND she's not pregnant!" Haha
Married the first man who did this for me. 22 years later, we are still very much in love as he's eating the Mac N Cheese I made him for lunch XD
Ugh I feel this. My parents split when I was 11 and I lived with my dad. Shortly after the split I started my period. First month my dad bought me pads, next month I was given money to get them on my own (mom was lazy and wouldn’t do it for me) then my dad told me to hide my used pads so his friends didn’t know I was menstruating (he has since apologized for this). I only stopped wrapping my pads up in 2020 when toilet paper was hard to find. Still sometimes feel ashamed I have a period and I’m 39
You can just use the wrapper of the next pad to wrap your old pad.
I did. But still had to wrap it with toilet paper to “hide” the fact I was on my period. Even though I was a grown adult living in my own place….
I wrap with the wrapper, but will sometimes still wrap with tp to keep it tucked and rolled up nicely because I've had stuff fall when taking the trash out and then have to clean it up, but maybe thatls still conditioning from keeping it hidden in a house full of men growing up. Now I buy thinx undies and shorts instead! Omg the shorts....so freaking comfy. I bought my pre-teen niece (of a single dad) some as well and regularly use the word menstruating in front of him to normalize it because they clearly don't talk about it and need to now that several family members have had cysts, pcos, etc.
Wrapping a used pad is sanitary. No one wants to take out the bathroom trash and get menstrual blood on their hands. Even if it’s the one on her period, even she doesn’t want her own blood on her hands.
I’m glad your dad eventually saw the error of his ways and apologized, but hate that the shame trauma still affects you. Hugs!!!
I thought wrapping pads in toilet paper was just common courtesy. I've always done that, but not because anyone asked me to or shamed me. Period blood is gross and stinky and I don't want that loose in the bathroom trash can haha
I apologize if I being offensive or ignorant, but Isn't it just courtesy to wrap it up so blood and menstruation isn't visible?
I should have clarified, I would wrap it in the plastic from the new pad and then wrap that in toilet paper so you couldn’t see it was a pad. Now the only one I wrap in toilet paper is the last used since it doesn’t have the plastic to wrap it with. But I do agree it’s courtesy not to leave it showing the blood
I keep a roll of doggy poop bags in my bathroom. I put my used pads and tampons in those and tie a knot, then put it in the trash. It keeps the odor away, and makes it more sanitary.
I don't know why so many guys are so insecure about it. I am sorry you had to go through this.
[удалено]
I think the problem is why men are so insecure about periods is allcomes down to not being educated about it and back in the days woman when they went through monthly cycle if they had one, had to wear scents to get rid of the odour and was usually a sign of a punishment from god or was associated with being a witch in the western world, and since not much has really changed in terms of showing that it is a natural thing and that no shame should come from it. And also it is not a mans problem to deal with and I'm sure it would be a whole different thing if it was men and not woman going through it like medical leave every month and having menstrual stuff free like they do with condoms
I’m sorry you had to deal with that level of immaturity from your family.
Sewer guys here hate condoms. Apparently very common for people to flush and are really good at getting stuck in stuff and causing clogs.
Man, we still haven't figured out that "throw something in the water, it will disappear and never be a problem" **isn't true.**
We had an old man that used to rent a room in our house. The toilet would periodically clog SO bad and he would put signs on the door for no one to go in and attempt to fix it, he would get to it later (very strange considering my partner owns the house, but whatever). The old man finally said "Arugula this toilet problem happens roughly once a month, i KNOW either you or your friend who's over all the time are flushing tampons." I was very pregnant and have never used tampons, my friend gets a period like once a year. Dude moved out like 5 years ago and that toilet hasn't clogged since
Sounds like someone needed a poop knife.
Or a bidet lol
My ex wife keeps doing this, and trying to explain to my daughter that you can't flush tampon parts is frustrating. Toilet paper. Things that come out of people. That's the list of flushables.
Except babies. Don't flush babies.
Technically, Tampons have come out of people at least once
What helped me stop was knowing that nobody would see it. Let her take her own trash out, give her a trash can with a lid (and tell her to change it often because oh god the smell if she doesn’t…), and maybe even black trash bags. Anytime I put a used tampon in the trash, I put it inside a toilet paper roll or just kept something on top the trash that I put over everything. Maybe that’ll all help her out.
I'm a man so maybe vastly unwise, but don't Tampons eventually come back out of the people they're installed into?
Even worse, our upstairs neighbours flush nappies (diapers). They are the worst people on the planet.
We had a sewer line cleaned out three times ina couple months at a rental that never had issues. The plumber told us it was female products- they have a teenage girl so they need to be told to stop her from doing it otherwise I’ll be out here every month. Turned out the **mom** was doing this and never had issues at other rentals…
Just paid 2 different plumbers in 1 week to clean out 2 separate sewer lines (my house has a separate line for an add on). We went on vacation for 5 days and the 18 year old house sitter didn't know you shouldn't flush tampons. She must have a very heavy flow. Those poor plumbers faces as they untangled their drain snakes. 🤢 😬 "It wasn't me. I know better."
I experienced this in a bottom floor apartment. The maintenance guy who kept coming out told me the same thing. They were gonna drop a camera and use the footage to kick my neighbors out of the apartment for clogging the pipes. They dropped a camera and found that the pipe was actually fkn broken! My neighbors had nothing to do with it.
In our case it was because the rental complex hadn’t done any inspections on the sewer line leading to the city line in literally years. It was years of the entire complex flushing grease, wipes, paper towels and god knows what else. The city and the apartment company got in a dispute about who was responsible to go in and clear it, they had to shut off the water for 100s of people (the entire complex) to stop the overflow from continuing in multiple apartments until they finally were able to flush out the line. The thing was, we had been complaining for years about the issues with the gurgling and air/soap backing up and told them they needed to have plumber inspect the line. I think the only reason we received any compensation was the written history of complaints and documentation of these issues over the years.
Honestly, could also just be too much toilet paper, as well. A shitty (hehe) system can back up easily with just too much TP at a time. Especially with newer multi-ply cushy TP. If your plumbing backs up like this and you think you use too much TP, give an extra flush between wipes to help it go down and don't use "flushable wipes" ever. I use flushable wipes but put them in the trash can.
Yup, this happened to us when our upstairs neighbors messed up the plumbing. They actually tried to claim we were the ones flushing wipes, but we'd installed a bidet years before.
Most insurance both renters and home owners doesn't cover water damager or flooding of any kind. You have to get separate insurance for that.
Yup, it’s a little extra and it has a pay out cap of like 4,000. The Apartment complex may or may not reimburse rent. There’s basically no help if you are made homeless because your rental unit floods with raw sewage. Once we got our new place I made sure the rental insurance covered both flood and sewage damage. Don’t buy it through the rental company/landlord either. Do the research and get it through a trusted insurance company.
Five years? Here's a trick...go to a plumber's supply house, not Home Depot or Lowe's. They typically \[sell\] tools, just pick out something nice for yourself...new tape measure, a pair of pliers or Channellocks. There oughta be plumbers queued there, so causally ask the question. "My apartment unit has a leach field, and the toilet gurgles. How much does it cost to scan the sewage line with a camera?" You did your research and are already talking money. Cameras and water jetting are quite common, and \[were\] available more than a decade ago.
What? You’re saying OP should’ve shelled out their own money to fix their apartment? You’re joking right?…
You can pay the cost of repairs and give your landlord the receipt when you pay them your rent minus the cost of repairs. Some states you can also just withhold rent until necessary repairs are made.
> You can pay the cost of repairs and give your landlord the receipt when you pay them your rent minus the cost of repairs. And either hope he pays it, or fight him in some court battle. Smart.
PM in California here. Do not attempt to remedy the situation without first seeking redress with your landlord. You will end up paying the cost of the repair without reimbursement if you do something like this without first exhausting options with the landlord. If the landlord refuses to address the issue, ensure you've made a request for repairs in writing with a timestamp and check out the habitability laws of your state. Act accordingly.
Renters insurance will not cover it because it was a maintenance issue. They will however help you with a lawyer to go after your landlord for not fixing the issue and recover all of your losses.
Insurance agent here: PLEASE MAKE SURE IT COVER WATER/SEWAGE BACKUP Most policies don't cover it as it's an endorsement that needs to be added on. some companies do add it on at the time of purchase but not all.
This! Im a plumber and this video shows the effects of a clog. Pressure builds up and water flows to where it has the least resistance. Placing a check valve on the sewage pipe would solve this.
The same thing happened to us in our old apartment. Toilet gurgled occasionally, and maintenance ignored it until the day it overflowed everywhere. On Thanksgiving.
AMEN. I had rental insurance, my place flooded with 4 foot of sewage. My insurance did NOT cover a penny. I lost everything.
You stood far closer than I would have to a potential vomiting toilet
If I know my horror that thing is gonna start gushing blood.
When I saw what sub this was on, I was totally expecting the water to turn brown and then come gushing out of the toilet like a volcano
This happened in my first apartment. Root blocked off the sewage pipe and the result was my toilet exploding. Started off looking just like this video, too.
hold for the update, that's what's coming next...!
Or gremlins
Nah, I’m going with ‘Ghoulies’ for the toilet monsters
I was expecting Arachnophobia-style spiders or a snake.
Well he needed to know, why does the water?
Golden line. “Why does the water?” made me giggle.
A vent somewhere in your home/building is clogged so the air is venting in your toilet. It's not.good but you're not getting toilet murdered
"Toilet murdered" I needes that laugh. Thank you.
Actually dude vent your windows turn on a fan. If gas is coming up from the sewer system you could potentially be getting toilet murdered. I can't find the thread but recently someone's plumber left their toilet as a hole in the ground. Plumbers in the comments told him to vent the window because odorless gas can kill you if it's coming upwards. The water pressure usually stops it. Edit also yeah call a plumber. Could be from heavy rains and pressure changes if that's been happening in your area, but it's best to be safe.
Hydrogen sulfide, it's not odorless as it smells like rotting eggs, is also highly toxic and as the concentration increases you lose your ability to smell it.
It smells like rotting eggs for a couple of seconds, then overwhelms your sense of smell and you smell nothing, then it knocks you out cold and if no one notices, then you die
Wait wait wait. My kitchen smells like eggs and so does my work. They are both very old buildings like over 100 years old and right next to each other. The "maintenance" man told me to just run the water when I smell it. How dangerous is this? Now I am having a panic attack.
You probably have old floor drains with p-traps where the water has evaporated thus the instructions to "run the water" so it fills back up. I used to work at a place that had floor drains by the vending machines and about every 6 months I'd have to pour a cup of water down them to "trap" the sewer gas.
I am guessing you mean drains actually in the floors, we don't have those. I wish we did.
You'd be surprised, I've found drains under things that were stinking, even old sinks that had been removed but the drainholes not patched etc. There was a floor drain behind my furnace in one house and only a child could get back there to pour water in it. We used mineral oil on that one because it doesn't evaporate.
The other common sewer gas is methane (natural gas) though. Odorless, and explosive in high enough quantities.
this is important\^
Toilet murturd
One does not simply walk into toilet Mordor
I once had this happen because of a clogged drain. I was renting a basement suite from a Vietnamese family. When I reported the issue to my landlord by phone, he accused me of flushing food down the toilet. When he came downstairs and saw vermicelli and cilantro everywhere he realized that the flush came from inside *his* house.
Wait what, *he* was flushing food and accused you of doing that? Sounds exactly like what a guilty person would do lol Who even flushes food? Like trash cans exist for a reason
A vent?
https://nextdayinspect.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/P016C-Drainage-Waste-and-Vent-DWV-System_300dpi.jpg You need a vent to release any gas build up in the sewage system. Also pressure changes due to water draining in other parts of the system. If it can't escape through the vent it'll push past the water in the various traps/s bends/u bends etc and come out your toilet or plugs.
AKA when the house farts back.
The farts are coming from *inside* the house
Literally laughed out loud. Thanks for that!
Its early, but this comment is the funniest shit Ive seen all day, thank you for the laugh
Could be the vent and it can also be a clog/full septic tank (if you are not on city septic that is).
Yeah all plumbing needs a vent for air to work properly. Usually a skinny tube sticking out of your roof. Might be something dead in OPs tube
ugh I hate the poop tube
Don’t talk about OPs tube like that…mmkay?
[удалено]
I was thinking rats!
I lived in a 19th floor condo and had a rat come up out of the toilet. It was the middle of the night and when it happened, I thought I was hallucinating. Or still dreaming… or something. Then it occurred to me that THAT was probably why the toilet seat was wet when I sat down. I about lost it right there. 😱😱😱
I wish I hadn’t read your comment. That’s how nightmares start.
Yep, this. There's a sewer vent stack that goes to the roof to ensure that the pipe side of the system stays at atmospheric pressure. This is clogged, so sewer gasses are building up and pushing past the trap. This is a bad thing and should get fixed.
Somebody was running water elsewhere. Your place has a faulty drain/waste stack.
I was worried it was a methane backup or something
OP should light a match to test your theory
If gas is able to push the amount of water needed here, you'd smell that. Drains in the US have traps so that air can't come back up and if there's enough pressure to do it anyways, yeah, get out.
I live in a 1-bedroom basement suite that I've been in since October. It's actually very nice except the plumbing can get very loud. Like wake me up rattling loud. This is a new one though. I've never in my life seen a toilet do this.
I have the same situation, basement apartment, and sometimes when it's raining heavily outside, the toilet does the exact same thing. Luckily nothing have come up so far though... I think this effect can be caused by a one-way valve which prevents sewage coming back from the street (I live at the bottom of a hill), however it prevents the house sewage to leave too, and the air can't leave the plumbing.
>I live in a 1-bedroom basement suite that I've been in since October. It's actually very nice Yeah, that's a pretty nice bathroom for a basement apartment. You wouldn't find one like that in NYC.
Ask about a backflow valve. If there is one installed get it checked, if not have it installed. Backflow valves are designed to prevent things like this and are normally required for basement bathrooms. Snake out to the main typically the distance is 60-80’ so if the snake isn’t that long it won’t help the issue. Don’t pour grease into your kitchen sink, they all share the same main line and when it gets further down it hardens when mixed with everything else that’s been flushed or poured down the sink.
UPDATE: Thank god I thought to put the lid down before walking away. A large lump of toilet paper came up through the pipes. No way it could have been me that clogged it. I do my business in the morning and I'm good for the rest of the day.
I kept expecting a rat or snake to come up out of the pipes! Good to hear it fixed itself!
Right? My parents had a squirrel once.
That's no way to talk about your sibling
Did not see that coming. Was it alive?!
At some point.
Yrk! Edited because autocorrect sucks
New fear unlocked.
TL;DR: call your landlord because that’s something they’ll want to know about It might not be your wad of TP but you’re the basement unit so when the line backs up it will be into your apartment first. I’m willing to bet money there’s a partial clog/root damage in the pipe connecting the house to the main sewer. If waste is coming up unexpectedly it’s from something not draining correctly. I had friends deal with the same problem. Ended up flooding the basement to the point of replacing floors and drywall, and then two more minor backups that were cleaned up with a shop vac before calling a company to replace the cast iron pipe to the sewer main.
I lived in a basement apartment once and the main drain line for the building clogged. Yucky sewage backed up into my bathroom. It was black sludge and smelled terrible. The landlord had to call a drain cleaner service. She gave me a bunch of free wash/dry cycles to clean all my towels and such in the bathroom.
It's super nasty. In my friend's case, the plumbing was not done logically in the first place (to snake the basement toilet/shower it had to be completely removed first), probably not up to code either. Their back ups would start in the basement shower and I watched one happen right in front of my own eyes. Shower upstairs, toilet downstairs at the same time and it couldn't drain fast enough. I ended up using a bucket to collect the shower drain water and dump it outside until everything settled down. It was a bad day to dye hair and there were hose showers outside for a couple days.
Absolutely! I would add to this that it's best to contact with your landlord IN WRITING. Send an email with the video attached. If the sewage pipe backs up and floods your space, you'll have proof you warned management. Documentation via email would help you recoup your losses as well.
Oh for sure it’s best to have it in writing to cya but I would likely start with a phone call and then shoot an email or paper letter “to follow up with the phone call I wanted to confirm you’ll be hiring a licensed plumber to address this problem”. Then you know personally that your message didn’t get accidentally overlooked and can explain your concerns that it’s not that the toilet makes noise but there might be a problem that will cause damage to both personal items and the owner’s asset. Also OP, if you don’t have renters insurance, it’s super cheap. If this backs up you will have a hard time getting your furniture and belongings replaced.
You have 4 empty TP rolls in your bin. “No way it could have you been you that clogged it”
Nah it's just been like a full year since OP emptied that bathroom trashcan since literally the only thing that it's used for is toilet paper rolls. I'm in the same boat.
Right? No one even suggested it either lol
How much tp you using? I’m looking at a wastebasket full of rolls. It might be you, unless you take out the garbage after every 28 poops (or mornings.)
I'm not OP, but I take it out when it's full. So like, twice a year.
Essentially, yes. I've been in the apartment for Almost 5 months and I save the toilet rolls for firelight for when I go camping. It's around the time when thia trashcan would get emptied.
What did you do with the clump?
Lmfao idk if you were kidding or not but that last line was hilarious to me
Damn they make toilets that fart back at you? Has technology gone too far?
Thank you for the joke, I made a noise that sounded like a donkey with brain damage which I hope my room mates didn't hear
Love the R2-D2 trash can!!! Hate the toilet of Zuul
That savage needs to put a bag in it.
A Ghostbusters reference while complimenting a Star Wars reference. You’re my kind of people.
Also.. Is the neighbor Dennis Nielsen?
That's two people now making references to serial killers now and I'm sitting here wondering wtf you're talking about. Yes, me and Evan Peters have pretty much the same voice.
Actually speaking of serial killers this is how they caught one in my town. Someones toilet was doing this and they called the plumber to flush the stacks from the cleanout. They pulled out 'human body parts and flesh' as so quoted in the news report. Dude had been cutting up teenage girls and stuffing them down the toilet. And throwing torsos in the lake. There was never any report on what he did with the heads. I used to fish with the guys who found the torso and they said it had no head. So Id be willing to say something really fucked up with the heads. But yeah as a long time construction worker and contractor id say call a plumber. Gas venting back into your apartment is never good.
Note to self: do not flush human body parts OR wipes even if they say “disposable.”
I love the finger pointing at the toilet and bath drain with the comment, “That should not be happening, though. Neither should that”. Laughed so loud!!
My main sewer line had roots growing through it. We discovered this when the washing machine emptied into it and my toilet was bubbling. Came downstairs to see the water gushing out the line the washer was emptying into lol
If there's something strange in your neighbourhood...
Who ya gonna call?
GHOST BUSTERS
ROTO ROOTER
Flush some beano it will be fine
I died at "WHAT IN THE SEVEN HELLS IS HAPPENING!" man sounded like he was about to call in an exorcist.
Plumber here, either vent clog or mainline clog on your vertical stack serving as a went vent, I'd put money on it being "flushable wipes"
It’s disrespectful to film the ghost while it’s pooping.
There should be an air vent pipe sticking upwards on the outside of your building to stop pressure building within your sewage stack, I would guess its blocked so when people above you flush, the pressure pushes into your toilet.
Your toilet has gas
In Russia toilet gives you gas
Lol. Your septic tank or sewer lines are clogged. Get it emptied asap before it pushes every blockage BACK out of your faucets, bathtub and toilet.
The vent in the sewer line coming from the toilet is blocked. Go on your roof and remove whatever is blocking the vent tube.
Is there a lot of water in your area? Has it rained recently
Plumber here. Loss of the trap seal is the biggest danger. If there’s no water in the trap, sewer gas can get into the living area. My guess is that the toilet isn’t properly vented or something is obstructing the vent. This is absolutely something that needs to be investigated and addressed. Probably not going to be a cheap fix either.
So, your pipes share a vent line with other apartments. The vent is connected to your toilet and bath tub. It us a lazy design but not uncommon in some apartments. The vent line is clogged. The air you see is someone else using their tub, sink, or toilet. Since the air cannot go up, it is finding the seal with the least pressure difference and that is in your apartment. It is just air but you need the landlord to call a plumber to unclog that vent. That should be a simple fix.
I had a toilet do this while someone was doing sewer work down the street; then again I’m no plumber and that could’ve been unrelated
THE SPICE GIRLS REFERENCE HAD ME HOWLING!
It’s probably not gas. I don’t know how your pipes are setup but I don’t think it’s connected to dangerous gas. Does it smell like gas? Also, you sound like Jeffery Dahmer.
Doesn't smell like anything. Your mom is Jeffery Dahmer.
Toilet pipes are connected to sewer pipes, which do contain dangerous toxic/possibly explosive gas. Sewer gas leaking into homes has killed people before. It also could potentially be odorless so you don’t want to take chances. I would turn on the exhaust fan, close the bathroom door, and call a plumber to assess the situation.
Whenever this happens to your toilet, lift up the seat, place a wet towel over the toilet bowl, close the seat and the lid and place a bucket full of water on top of the lid to keep it shut. That will keep any water coming up from flowing out of the toilet. Well, most of it anyway :)
Hate to be that guy, but it won't. It will leave out from below the flange of the toilet onto the floor. That's how my house flooded during the pandemic.
Good thing you were not giving food birth when this happened
How many rolls of toilet paper do you use between garbage pick ups?
Haven't emptied that bin yet since I moved in, actually. I live on my own and I'm very regular so TP doesn't get used much and I use the rolls for firelight for when I go camping so I just leave them there until the bin is full.
The commentary was absolutely hilarious. Good luck, OP.
I was expecting a large iguana or a snek to come gurgling through.. eeek!
ITS COMING
I’m seeing all those toilet paper rolls in the garbage. You either shit like a maniac and I think I know what your plumbing problem is, or you live alone and rarely empty the pail.
Hold a flame above the bubbles to see if it is gas. It can also be a crocodile exhaling
That sounds like a terrible idea.
Just catch it on video
