I went and clogged a toilet today by flushing a bunch of paper towels
Why didn't you just throw them in the trash?
The trash was on the other side of the house and I was already in the bathroom.
I suppose I get that but you just ended up making more work for yourself by flushing the paper towels in the toilet. Just taking the tome to walk to the trashcan would have saved you time and trouble so being lazy about throwing out the paper towels clearly wasn't worth it.
I get it now but it's not like the toilet is used everyday. The difference between walking 2 feet to the trash and flushing them must be mad.
Just because the toilet isn't used often doesn't mean you can abuse it like that. I hope you were able to learn your lesson, that laziness can cause more problems than help. How about putting the trash can next to you at the toilet next time?
