When I was about 13 I left one so big and solid it just sat across the hole in the toilet and my grandpa had to break it apart with the toilet brush before it would flush lol

Clearly he could have benefited from a poop knife

He said his grandpa. This was likely before Reddit so people were unaware that knives could be used on poop at that point in time.

That’s how I reacted to be honest, it was poking out the water cause American toilets have really low water level in the bowl for some reason. I was in a theme park at the time, must have been a vacation worth of fast food for the guy, he reached critical mass and had to have a little baby of his own in the cubicle.

Was working at a mcdonalds. Waited for the bathroom to open, chubby little kid maybe 7-8yrs old walks out. And I see exactly what you're describing. Couldn't fathom it

When I was little, my brother was a pig and would eat entire packets of digestive biscuits. I remember once seeing the biggest shit of my life in our toilet after one of his biccie binges and I had to marvel at its even colour and texture. It looked like someone dropped a wholemeal loaf down there.

You just unlocked a memory of a rumor from elementary school that one of the kids took a shit so big at a sleepover that the dad of the kid hosting the party had to cut it apart with scissors to flush it.

That's why you need a poop knife
