Stop flushing your "flushable wipes"

Anonymous
Those things are wrecking having on infrastructure. There is no such thing as "flushable wipes," whatever the label says. Maybe they won't mess up your home, but they clog pipes and pumps. Ditto for tampons. Or anything other than human waste and regular TP.

OP here. No, unfortunately everyone does not know this. There are plenty of dipshits who still think it's ok to flush these wipes, or tampons. There have been threads where people have defended both on DCUM.

And clearly.... with the giant sewage breach, lots of people are still doing this. Sorry to burst your "duh OP" ego.

Then people would just use baby wipes.

We do use wipes in my house (I have a toddler) but we throw them in the trash can. Adults use bidets.

Moronic like getting "put" and "but" confused? Like that?

Seriously, everyone knows this. Those that don't at this point are so beyond defending.
