.. It's possible to block it with toilet
paper alone, and it achieves the opposite of that intended, in that if
you do #2's in it, you have to flush 2 or 3 times to make sure it goes
away. Absolutely useless.


Hence the favourite US version of a dinner conversation "toilets I have
blocked"! and the proliferation of toilet plungers available in every US
hardware store. My daughter described the system to one of her
embarrassed UK guests as:- "Dump, flush, wipe, flush, wipe, flush, wipe,
flush, wipe, flush" etc! Fortunately their filling systems are very
fast, or you could miss an entire round of drinks! It's real fun however
when the incoming water gets to within 1/2 an inch of the edge of the
bowl before the bowl empties.
