BLORT:

a) the sound made by psocoptera's toilet spontaneously spewing up a bowlful of what looked like soapsuds

b) the sound of the toilet exuding *more* soapsuds to spill out on the floor in a big foamy puddle

c) the sound of the toilet starting to do this *again* after psocoptera mopped up the first batch and washed the floor

d) all of the above



Fortunately it seems to have stopped without overflowing again. And as far as things that might come out a toilet outflow, "some sort of sudsy cleaning product accident" is really not bad. And the building manager should be sending a plumber over tomorrow to investigate. But seriously, why the heck would a toilet start foaming for *no apparent reason*? It could still flush just fine, so it wasn't backed up. Something in the building plumbing, or someone in the building flushing something they shouldn't have. Grrr.

That icon always makes me, um, laugh sort of uncomfortably. Have you ever seen the Galapagos tortoises in the concrete pen at the San Diego zoo? I have at least once been privileged to see them getting some. The sound they made is unforgettable.
