Do you flush the goods and the paper at the same time or do you do it in two separate flushes?

Depends on poop volume and solidity.

Depends how bad it is and wether or not a courtesy flush is necessary.

Is toilet prone to clogging? Is it likely someone may use it soon after I do?

If yes to any of the above, flush 2x to prevent clogging and smell from spreading too far.

I've never had to do more than once before moving in here. WTF?


Of course, the building is like 30/40/50 yrs old.

That is why there is a U-bend on your toilet...

What the hell are you talking about? When you take a shit, the shit sits in the water directly ABOVE the U-bend.

you know, two flushes is pretty wasteful. I'm not an environmentalist kinda guy, but I try to only flush once unless absolutely necessary

Wasteful to what? The water stays on our planet, and in a short time is perfectly potable.

1 flush, unless it was a horribly large shit and I need to flush twice to prevent clogging.

Otherwise, fuck a "courtasy" flush.

One flush. I hate when you do a courtesy flush and water hits your ass!
