I had used it the other night and had to pull it out from the other bathroom in order to make it work. It was dirty and she putit in the dishwasher with almost nothing else, but Iโ€™m a little fucking skeeveed by it.

Edit: thanks all. Iโ€™ll run it again with vinegar at the hottest and feel better about it. No divorce. Thanks for your help.

A few years ago I discovered that my girlfriend takes monster shits. She only poops once every 3 or 4 days. When I say "horse turd", I'm not kidding, just looking at one of these makes my ass hurt. Anyway, apparently this sort of thing isn't unheard of. I stumbled on a Reddit post about something called a "poop knife". I repurposed my shittiest chef's knife (pun intended) for this task, which has cut down on the number of times I have to plunge the toilet. We wash it off every time with tile cleaner, so it never goes in the dish washer. I've blunted the edge since it doesn't need to be sharp, and my girlfriend is a complete klutz. I can easily imagine her dropping it and cutting off a toe. Imagine having to explain to an ER doc cutting your toe off with a poop knife.

Wow, after all those years, poop knife is still a thing, huh?
