    What's wrong with my toilet, and how do I fix it?

    When I flush my toilet, bubbles appear for a moment, and then the water quickly rises before it slowly descends.

    Nothing's terribly wrong, it's just that this flush looks awkward.

    What's wrong with my toilet, and how do I fix it?

      Okay. Anyone else?

      Edit:

      Just now, I read an intriguing comment on VideoJug.

      too much time I got a better way. Don't touch anything ...Get a 5 gallon bucket filled with water...Pour in toilet...DO NOT FLUSH....it will naturally force whatever out.....Remember don't flush..Pour slowly..100% job done! Much easier!!!!!!!!!!!

        That quote is correct. Also, my town is on a water meter, so to save money and water (but more importantly money) my family uses bath water to flush our toilet.

                  You may think so. I won't let that bother me.

                  I was simply asking for advice, and then I found that advice.

                    Uhm it was not meant as an insult or anything, I am sorry if I offended you...it's just that you have the whole internet to ask, and it's kind of a personal problem.

                      You didn't. As I said, I won't let that bother me. It's part of building my mental toughness.

                      Yes, I have the whole Internet to ask -- which includes this forum.

                      Yes, and it's a universal problem as well. We're all likely to have toilet problems, so we ought to learn how to solve them.

                        Let's see here:
                        1)It would have been silly if I would have bothered or offended you with that remark. Anyway, glad to be of help. :)

                        2)Ok.
                        3)With problems such as :flush: , it's best to consult a specialist, that's what I do, most of the time.
                        EDIT Oh lol, I can't believe I typed in that last answer...

                          It'll be hard for me to consult a specialist when I'm not at Basic Training yet.

                          Oh, you mean a plumber? Heck no! I like my money.
