There are those who are basically like: "this is my toilet and I can do with it what I want."

And then there are others who are like: "please don't flush baby wipes because they're basically cloth and there's a symbol on the package of a toilet with a slash through it."

I am in the first group. I've been known to flush videotapes or newspaper or anything that needed to be discarded but it was too chilly to walk it out to the garbage bin.

Which kind of flusher are you?

According to Reliance Home Comfort, these are the items that get flushed down the toilet the most that can cause big problems...

Floss has a way of getting itself tangled up in there and winding itself around things anyway you're not supposed to flush floss even though that's fun to say. Some busy body at the health board says not to and we're all scared of her.

Are you kidding me? How weak have our toilets gotten? When I was their age I was outside playing until the street lights came on and walked to school and my allowance was a dime every two weeks. These toilets are entitled because of their enabler parents.

Chewing gum? Who are you Warren Harding?

This stuff loses flavor in about 7 seconds.

You're also not supposed to flush cigarettes. Let me know in the comments if you agree with this stupid list.
