My mp3 player just fell into the toilet.

[michigancat]

And the toilet was plugged/about to flood.

I'm in shock right now.

TURN THE DAMN WATER OFF!!!!!!!!!!

[Ameroogie]

No crap?  That really happened?

[michigancat]

TURN THE DAMN WATER OFF!!!!!!!!!!

That's what caused the fall into the toilet.  The scramble for the water.

Yes, this really happened.

I couldn't even recover it, because I think the plunger sent it on down or at least got it wedged somewhere.

[pissclams]

did it have a radio on it? if not, good riddance.

[Pittcat]

Not that you'd want it back now.  That had to be one healthy turd you dropped to plug the pot.  And now your mp3 player is getting intimate with the poo.  Cut your losses, dig into the pipes, get the player out, and toss it.

The respect I have for you in having all that happen and then posting about it so many times before even thinking about telling someone at work is very high. 

[michigancat]

Thanks?

I like when my electronics break because it gives me the opportunity to upgrade.

Can the mp3 player be recognized by coworkers as yours?  If not, tell someone that you noticed the toilet is clogged.  If it can be recognized own up and face the music.

1) remove battery immedi.
2) let dry for 48 hours (put in dessicate)
3))should work
4)buy power towel

The toilet flushes now.  I unclogged the sh*t.

It would be recognized.  Maybe I could say it fell out of my pocket if confronted?  I seriously think it could have made it out.  It was a small one.  I've definitely had turds larger.

Oh. Didn't really read the thread.

Perhaps you should do the "ell dance?"

can you not take a dump without music?

[michigancat]

You've never taken an mp3 player in for a long trip to the can?

I def. learned my lesson.

[steve dave]

I do picture Rusty with 24/7 headphones.

are you worried the thing is going to come floating up somehow? if the toilet is unplugged, that sucker is on it's way out to Worlds of Fun by now.

Well, it flushes kind of funny, which has me worried.  My nightmare is a plumber fixing it and dislodging it and revealing it to the entire company who has gathered around to see what the problem was.

I think it might have flushed weird previously, though, which led to my initial problem.  It wasn't my go-to toilet at work, so I don't know exactly how it normally flushed.

[pissclams]

you could launch a salvo of test missles through the pathway to see if any get lodged or if the toilet gets backed up any.  something smaller than your mp3 player and non-buoyant.  gradually increase the size of your test missles until you reach the size whereby you know there are not going to be any further problems from your mp3 player and that it made it through to freedom.

[michigancat]

Nice plan, "poopclams".

[Dirty Sanchez]

Did that with my cell one time at work, but not while crapping.  Told the company I dropped it in the lake when wading.

LOL that is comedy gold, right there.

Dammit, Rusty. This is why we can't have nice things.
