Installed a toilet this weekend
-
I just don't need to be advertised to in those moments in my life.
Not what I was expecting from "pop up" given the context... but ya know what? I'm okay with that.

What makes them horrible toilets?
During the 90's water usage limits were placed on toilets. Instead of improving the design, manufacturers only made the tanks smaller which didn't provide enough flushing force.
Anything more than one piece of toilet paper could cause a clog.
Current toilets use a larger flush valve or multiple flaps for a more powerful flush than a 1970's toilet while using half the water.

If you get around to caulking around the base, remember to leave rear section open. It'll allow you to see the puddle of water if there is ever a leak from the wax/foam ring failing.

I just had to replace the gasket between the tank and the bowl, along with bolts and fiber washers, because one of ours failed and leaked water from the tank onto the floor, damaging the hardwood. Protip: you need to tighten those three bolts more than you think.
I also just had to replace these on a house i moved into. The ones i took off were wing nuts... the back one was free spinning.
Replaced that whole seal and assembly instantly

I'll throw my weight behind Who Gives A Crap. It ships to you directly on a subscription service and it's made of bamboo.
This looks promising!

Quilted Northern bathroom tissue is made by Georgia-Pacific, which is owned by the Koch Brothers. Quilted Northern helps fund the Heritage Foundation which wrote Project 2025 and ushered in this new age of fascism.
Could I bother you to try a different brand? Charmin is an excellent alternative.
How ethical is Kirkland Signature (Costco store brand) toilet paper?

I like the rope trim along the log wall. A creative way to fill the gap!
Wait a second, how can somebody who lives in a genuine log cabin be posting in !dull_mens_club? That's not dull at all!

Imagine pooping like a savage and using bits of paper to wipe your bottom

Add silicone where the toilet connects to the floor. Avoids water running under the toilet if you mop the floor

Funny, I came here to say how gross I thought that was, especially in a bathroom, because it's impossible to clean.

Nice, but it's the tiling job around the logs that impresses me the most.

Costco has an excellent record of corporate responsibility (compared to the current line up of American businesses) and their Kirkland stuff is great. The bath tissue is very narrow compared to others and doesn't feel as plush. It's fine but not my first pick.

Ha ha don’t be impressed, that’s cheap 80’s imitation tile and it’s basically cardboard.

We are bathroom brothers of 80's fake tile board. Just bought this house and this is on the list to get remodeled.
Woah, crazy! We’re working on the bathroom as money allows, and that’s one of the things slated to go. It’s so cheap, basically cardboard with a tile pattern

Noted, thank you! We’ll make the switch right away
