Don't flush those flushable wipes, baby wipes, paper towels, 5 day old meatballs and sausage... yes, we get that a lot especially from little old Italian ladies, um, leftover soups, floss for teeth, string, whole cucumbers, we don't ask, we don't judge. , cotton swabs, any feminine products, try to avoid using that really soft thick toilet paper like poster above uses.
Flush in the middle of what you're doing too so the waste isn't all trying to get down the pipe at the same time.
Flushing that stuff can clog up the toilet or if it's gets through to the main sewer line it can clog that up. Just the other day we removed about about 30 flushable wipes from someone's main sewer line. They don't break up in water like they're advertised.
A plumber once told me that whenever Charmin goes on sale, he gets more calls.
Yep, that stuff doesn't dissolve very well in septic tanks either. We switched to a generic tp made from recycled paper- dissolves very well in the water.
Although my butt isn't any of YOUR concern, I simply meant that by putting used TP or wipes in the trash can easily spread more germs (and odors) than necessary. And I would bet that if YOU did that, it wouldn't smell like roses, so your stench would filter through your bathroom, down the hall, into your kitchen.
How are those hamburgers tasting tonight?
PHFT!
Actually, with the cover on the trash can, there is no noticeable odor from the can. Might be if I were to open the cover and stick my nose right above the can, but I don't care to do that either. We also have a deodorizer in the bathroom, so that's what we are more likely to smell.

When we fix hamburgers, they're just fine.
Well, BigDGeek will be happy for you, I'm sure. AND you aren't interfering with his sewage and/or drinking water. Yay.
That's a lot of corn on the cob to eat first, though. Or are the corn cobs recycled?
I always assumed they were using the dried cobs that had been shelled for animal feed. Corn fit for human corn on the cob consumption is a relative rarity.

Field Corn (aka Animal Corn) is perfectly fine for human consumption if it is picked before it starts to dry out. Not quite as sweet as 'sweet corn' but even regular 'eating corn' varies in sweetness by variety. Modern Field Corn ears tend to be larger than the ones grown in the 19th and early 20th century (when the Sears Catalogue took over from corn cobs in teh outhouse)
