This is a device to defeat stubborn toilet clogs, when a regular
plunger won't work. After locking the toilet tank's flapper valve closed, you pull it out of the
closet, seal the business
end to the rim of the toilet, clamp it down, and push the button.
This ignites a small solid rocket motor
that is fueled partially by
thermite, which results in pieces of molten metal being blasted
through the clog, while the toilet bowl is pressurized by the
gaseous exhaust (and steam), pushing the shredded and charred
remains of the clog down the drain.
Not recommended for use on toilets with plastic drain pipes. Frequent use may result in
failure
of wax gasket between toilet and drain pipe.
or thermate?

A simpler way to deal with a stubborn clog involves a
bucket of water. Hold the bucket about 4 feet above the
water in the toilet bowl, and empty the bucket quickly into
the toilet. The momentum of the falling water will usually
bust the clog. |

Yes, but this sounds like the video would go viral and end up as a Mythbusters episode ... |
|
| |
Wouldn't the bucket technique also splash quite a bit? |

I don't see why this wouldn't defeat toilet dogs just as well as toilet clogs. |

[FT], are you using a different font than the standard one for the site? Because
the C and L look quite distinct to me (if I disable my userstyle). |
|
| |
I usually have the font set large'ish (eyesight, I has none), but I've been futzing around with Windows 10 installs, so didn't get around to it, yet. I like the font we use, but there's a point (size) where it goes from "click" to "dick". |

Hey there [FT] have you tried FLICKING the screen? |
|
| |
I haven't gotten around to working out the tablet-y stuff on my laptop, yet. It's pen-based so Flicks probably won't work right. Meanwhile Win10's boot manager trashed my almost-got-it-working the-way-I-like-it Win7 partition, so installing a Linux distro to referee is probably in the cards. (I use my computer mostly to play with my computer). |

and ... oh ...
>_< ...
Droll, dude, very droll. |

What do you get by crossing a fire ant and a termite? |
