Weirdest thing you have used DoorDash to deliver

    DoorDash has everything, or just about everything to order. From traditional restaurants to Tractor Supply Co. So what was the weirdest thing you ordered?

    I’ll go first: A plunger.
    Yes it was necessary. It was after 10pm. No I couldn’t go to the store myself. No one I knew was available to help.

    Sounds like the personification of a crappy situation.

    Nothing. Ever.

    And I’m not the only one.

    First my toilet clogged unbeknownst to the user (not me. I was out)

    Then it over flowed. Still person responsible didn’t notice.

    I discovered it at 9:45 pm. Wife was flying to see her parents. Son was sleeping. I grabbed the plunger. It broke. Duct tape didn’t fix it.

    Anyone I could call were already in bed. Neighbors had their lights out (and have kids of their own).

    Wife reminded me DoorDash will do grocery shopping. Sure enough, a plunger was available. Bought two so I can have a back up.

    And this isn’t the worst part, as I’m sure jumped to someone reading this immediately.

    There was enough water and it was on the second story that I’m actively looking to see if it leaked to the bottom story, mainly the garage. So far, nothing but there are spots I need more time to check. I’m dreading what I find.

    And you are a better person than me. Having a kid during Covid introduced some bad habits.

    A wire hangar will often work as well as a plunger to get that bog working again.

    I was trying to think last night of a way to force air down but I didn’t have anything particularly helpful. I’ll remember the wire

    Toilet auger. Go big or go home.

    I reckon going big is how @Spartan Squad got into that predicament in the first place.

    The toilet I installed in 2017 hasn’t once clogged. It’s the greatest purchase of my life.

    It has a bidet, doesn’t clog and flushes extremely quickly and without an issue. The flapper is unflappable, seals every time and chain has never caught.

    I love that toilet like one of my children.
