“Did they find any plastic straws?”

Funny you two should ask! They did find like some plastic balls or something. Something else was down there. Go look on the video.

Whoever it was, I sure hope they received a sizable financial compensation for it.

They do need a redesign. I fell prey to flushable wipes and my septic system this year. 1 wipe at a time. My plumber then filled me in on the details. The flushable ones are barely biodegradable and need sunshine to kick the process of and keep it going. There is no sunshine in septic system or city plumbing.

Mother is the necessity of invention. Ban wipes until they make them safer to use and they’ll come up with some version that will be safer because banning them will such a mother ****er.

I don’t flush anything but TP.

On a septic system I won’t even flush TP.

That goes into the garbage.

My brother is married to someone who just throws them on the floor.

Some women are absolute pigs.
