Does he also unring the bell? I use this phrase from time to time. I know I should stop.

No you shouldn’t. That makes perfect sense and is the kind of thing that makes language colorful and interesting...
It’s just overuse that causes colorful expressions to become irritating.

Once you’ve rung the bell, you can’t unring it. Just as once you’ve seen something, you can’t unsee it.
BTW, seen requires “have.” I have seen what I saw.
