Ask Uncle Kafka

Dear Uncle Kafka:

Today I was in the administrative offices of the San Francisco Unified School District. All of the toilets in that building have a little sticker over them that says, “Flush the Toilet.” When I pushed on the handle, no water went into the toilet. I tried for several minutes, but there was no water. Why did this happen?

Sincerely,

Andrea

Dear Andrea:

What else did you expect to happen? As the saying goes, “The poop goes click.”

Love,

Uncle Kafka
