Is a spooky dooky when you take a big shit and then there's nothing in the bowl?
So this is a US thing, with the weird half-full-of-water bowls, right?
I've had a messy clog maybe once in my life, but evven then it didn't just fill horrifically with water and overflow. It's such a trope that all I can assume is that maybe US toilets do that sometimes?
- American plumbing sucks. I never once clogged a toilet in my 10 years living in Germany - those things would suck down ANYTHING. Here they sometimes just decide to back up for no visible reason.
  But like the other poster said, they rarely overflow - you just have a gross bowl of water to deal with trying to plunge it down.
- It's really only kids / idiots that overflow the toilet, since it takes several flushes on a fully clogged toilet to get the water level that high.
  
  Ok, so my toilets are like 23 years old, I have no knowledge on how they work, but both clog easily and both overfill if you don't shut off the water.
  What the fuck is wrong with my toilets/plumbing?
- It happens occasionally, it's not like they overflow after one flush. You flush, notice the water isn't going down, plunger it, and usually you're good
  
  "Surely the weight of a few more gallons will push it th-- ah, fuck!"
  
  Plus there's a knob where the toilet water hose connects that you can turn off if you see it filling up so that it doesn't overflow
Turn off the water you fool! We'll drown!
you you
The spooky flood is coming, were boned
tyre, sealed one side with thick industrial fabric & glue. plonk yourself down on that. moves it along.
It’s called a return to sender situation
Reminds me of the most stupid way a german captain sank his own uboot.
Spooky dooky.
