    Ok, so let's say you were in a hotel and you were checking out the next morning and driving a long way home and had to leave early - like 8am.

    Furthermore let us say you had a few drinks with friends the night before, killed the toilet and stopped it up pretty bad. And there was no plunger... and you went down to the front desk but only a good lookin' gal was working there so you were embarassed to ask for a plunger. But you had to go real bad the next day and now it's a little... nasty in there.

    Do you..

    a) check out and let housekeeping deal with it tomorrow
    b) get up super early and go to the home depot 2 miles away and buy a plunger
    c) go and ask for a plunger, and deal with the embarassment?
    d) don't leave time to get to Home Depot and pray the girl isn't working in the morning and its the guy that was there the other day at the front desk?


    No, I'm serious... what to do?

    Unless you're planning on inviting the night clerk to your room, just go ask for the plunger. You don't know her, why be embarrassed? Night clerks have seen it all already.

    Hey hey hey, this is a HYPOTHETICAL question, it didn't really happen, let alone to me right now in my hotel room, err... or something

    You guys have nerves of steel... I was flirting with the girl earlier and I would drop dead to say "So, anyways, you're a fox and all, but what I really want is a plunger to unclog my demolished sh!tter in my room... then you could come up and we'll have a couple of beers!".

    I called HD but they are closed... don't they usually open at like 6am? :)

    Before checking out, call the front desk and state that you had yet to use the toilet until just before you checked out and you noticed the maid service missed the 'present' that was floating in it prior to your stay. You will probably get your room comped!

    Call them and have housekeeping clean it.

    As Tillman! said, they have seen more then one guest howitzer out dinner from the night before. Just open a window to vent the discharge before they show up.

    You are wise beyond your years, my friend. I should file that under "peters tips for success in travel". Does it also work on airplane toilets?

    On a disturbing side note, I was on a very empty flight a couple of weeksback and I was blabbing with the flight attendant. He told me that some customers do insane things in the toilet. He said it's pretty common to see crap (literally) splattered on the walls. I was not so shocked that it happens, but more shocked at the mentality of someone who would touch their own just to "get back" at a company.

    OMFG, I am so glad I am not in the hotel business any more. I know you were kidding, peters, but that's not far off base from what some "guests" would pull.

    My advice in this purely hypothetical situation, use the public restrooms in the lobby, and leave a $10 tip for the housekeeper that gets to clean up after you. You'd have spent that much on a plunger, and the housekeeper will appreciate the gesture, because she's cleaned up more **** for no tip at all, trust me.

    Just call the hotel operator/PBX and ask to speak to the engineering department directly. This probably isn't the first time they've encountered this problem.

    BTW, from my experience in the hotel business.. the hot chick at the counter really doesn't care. ;)

    If it's dirty, it's housekeeping. If it's clogged, it's "engineering services" -- the housekeepers don't replace lightbulbs or fix toilets.

    And don't be embarassed. Some areas have poor water pressure, and the toilets don't work too well.

    Or heck, just tell her that the champagne was domestic and the caviar was a sconce off. ;)

    Something similar happened to me once:

    I was in Atlanta for a seminar, and a bunch of the hogs and I went out after hours to slum around. Anyhow, lots of Taco Bell and Alize went into the hangar, and I woke up around 4 in the morning with **** cramps so bad my hair was going gray.

    I made a mad dash to the crapper, and right before I crossed the threshold of the bathroom, I felt something give. I leaped and hoped I would make it to the pot before all hope was lost, and to my surprise, in the dark, I landed on the seat. The minute my zitty and flabby arse hit the seat, it was like Niagra Falls. My intestine began to unwind themselves as a torrent of dirty-dishwater flowed from my bung. I closed my eyes and started to groan in releif when I noticed that the inner thighs were getting really, really warm. It was then that the horror of the situation drilled into my skull - the toilet seat was DOWN, and I was CRAPPIN' on it.

    Absolute horror - Oh! The Humanity!

    It looked like a rusty Ol' Faithful, as half-digested Chilltos and Tacos Bell Grande were gushed onto the seat and defelcted upwards between my legs. But what was I to do? I sat there, a defeated man, a pout on my face and some lickity-**** on my cheeks.

    Sad, sad story. I know your pain.

    This has been the single most funny day in a long time for me. You guys are absolutely hilarious. LMFAO!!! I still remember the time in 6th grade we had to go on a trip to some camp for a few days. Well lets just say from the moment I got there to the moment I left, i had a serious case of Diarrhea. Do you know how hard it is to prevent yourself from letting it out?! Well i failed a few times (hey, I was 12!). Also its extremely difficult and tempting when you're in the middle of the woods (natures second largest toilet, first being the ocean) surrounded by other kids and a mile or so away from the nearest private toilet. Ahhhh to be a child again.

    My day was also enlightened earlier when I went to the dealership to make an appt. to get something fixed on my car. A friend came b/c I thought I may be leaving it over night and he'd drive me home, which didn't happen. I tend to "speed" I guess you would say, and he said "now you follow me, and I'll show you how we drive in Pa." I agreed, well as we were leaving there is a huge median that separates the going and coming lanes. He didn't realize this and got in the coming lane, wondering why cars were coming at him on a relatively minor road, he saw me driving by in the opposite lane cracking up. 2 MINUTES PRIOR HE SAID "I'LL SHOW YOU HOW WE DRIVE IN PA." I'm sorry but if thats how you drive in Pa, i'm sticking to my NJ training.

    And now, for the REST of the story...

    </Paul Harvey>


    So I couldn't sleep last night thinking about this situation and how I had to get up early to get to Home Depot, as well as people I needed to contact after this trade show, etc, etc. So I ended up sleeping through my alarm and woke up in horror to see it was 10:15, 45 min before checkout! I had no time to run to HD and get a plunger. I took a shower and ventured downstairs, and it was the lady I checked in with. An elderly grandmothery looking lady. I didn't have the heart to tell her about the "toilet unpleasantry", so I went back up, put a $10 bill on the top of the toilet seat and scribbled "Sorry" on a piece of paper and put it under the bill.

    Being the crafty type of guy I am, I said something to the lady upon checkout about the water pressure being low and the toilet taking forever to flush, in the vain hope that when the housekeeping lady talked about the demolished $hitter, she would say "hmm, he talked about the toilet not working - maybe he didnt' do it but rather it backflushed and appeared AFTER he left!".

    So now I only hope that when I go back for the show next year, they don't remember me as the SRT Mike, defecator and assassin of foreign toilets and put a "do not rent room to" next to my name in the computer.

    And now you know the REST of the story (hypothetical story, I mean)

    Actually, it shows up on the screen as - "THIS DOEST HEW" - which is hotel/housekeeping/audit shorthand for:
    Thinks HIs **** DOEsn't STink HE's Wrong

    The fact that "hew" has something to do with an axe cutting a tree and you cutting a log (or pulverizing one to sawdust in Nipplesquirt's case) is merely a coincidence.
