How to Unclog a Toilet Like a Man

Greetings Barbarians! Long days and pleasant nights! I’d like to take this opportunity to give thanks to the recent surge of followers and your comments. This means so much to me, I will forever be grateful for this. 

A man’s life is of action, being able to do things for yourself and others. A man helps himself and as much as possible, does not rely on others for his comfort. Men must have a wide array of skills to do because, in life, you’ll never know what could happen next. 

A few weeks ago, I had the unfortunate task of unclogging a toilet. My daughter was taking a bath when a bar of soap slipped from her hand and for some reason ended up in the toilet. Given that she was still a child, she panicked. She flushed down the toilet in hopes of eliminating the evidence of the missing bar of soap. I wouldn’t even know it if I haven’t asked why the toilet is clogged.

But before that, did you know that a tiny kitten becomes sad for each minute that passes that I’m not at 3000 subs? Just kidding, but I sure need every bit of your help in reaching a broader audience. Please give this post a like, subscribe to this blog if you still haven’t, share it in social media and tell your friends about it. I appreciate every bit of help, thank you!

As I said, a man’s life is full of unexpected challenges and if you’re a man you cannot expect things to be handed to you. You can’t expect a boy to grow into manhood without challenges. In this case, a clogged toilet. 

So, how to unclog a toilet:

1. First off, you’ve got to shut-off the water valve to the water cabinet. Make sure to avoid filling up the toilet with any more water and prevent overflowing. 
2. Get a plunger, a funnel cup plunger is ideal but a regular plunger would suffice. What we are looking for in a plunger is enough coverage to seal it to the toilet. Make sure that the plunger is soft and supple. Run the plunger over some hot water to loosen the rubber before using it. 
3. Stick the plunger and form a seal, give a few downward strokes and flush the toilet. If the water clears then congratulations, you just successfully unclogged your toilet. If not, try plunging and flushing again. 

When the problem seems to get worse, then it’s time to call on the professionals. When water is backing up in sinks or showers whenever you flush then the problem might need a bit more than a plunger. 

So there you have it, a how-to guide in unclogging your toilet. Every man should prepare for such things. It takes more than knowing how things work but rather knowing how to fix them. Everyone could ask a question but not everyone knows the answer. 

If you have any suggestions on what you think is a good skill that a man should have, please don’t hesitate to comment. I’d love you hear your input for future writings, thanks!

To Courage and Freedom and Plumbing!
