The Toilet

Yesterday I noticed the water in the toilet was pretty low, so I took the lid off the back and noticed that a hose came loose. Simple solution, just plug the hose back in... well, as I'm reconnecting the hose, I hear a snap and that little contraption (see pic) starts making noise and shaking and then WHOOSH!!! The thing flies out of the toilet in and water starts shooting everywhere and I'm like "OH SHIT" as I'm getting soaked with water. So I try to turn the water off with that little valve and it just turns and turns and nothing happens."FUCK FUCK FUCK", I'm saying as my bathroom is flooding with water and somehow I get the water flow contained into the toilet and call maintenance.

So the maintenance guy calls me back and is like "So you have an clogged toilet?" and I try to explain whats going on and he tells me that it'll take him about 45 minutes to get here because he's not in the area. Then the alky neighbor and his friend come over and they're like "come and eat your tacos" (cause we just went and got some) and I'm like "Dude look what's going on!!" and he says "oh, well your foods going to get cold" and I'm like "godammit, I gotta take care of this!" and then he mentions something about me leaving my beer at his place and leaves.

So the maintenance guy finally knocks on the door and he's only got a plunger in his hand and I'm like "you're gonna need more than that" and he's like "well, lets see" (like I don't know what I'm talking about!) and before I can say anything, he takes the lid off the back and WHOOSH!!! he gets soaked with water!

Then he's like "OH WOW, this is serious" when he realizes that there's no way to turn off the water and runs off to get some more tools and turn off the water to the building. Once he got the water off he fixed it in a few minutes and called to have some carpet guys to clean up the water.

Afterwards I went and ate my cold tacos and drank some beer with the neighbors.
