Fair, but how would you solve this one without water? Put it in a bag?

Toilet isnt the only place in the house with water. Theres generally a sink or tub in the same room.

I’d work it out. I certainly wouldn’t leave it for someone else to deal with.

The landlord shut off the water. That means no water in the sink either. And besides, he intended to fix it when back. Big oopsie

Well - that sucks. Guessing that I probably would have found a different toilet and not taken a crap in a house that had no water.

Who craps in a dry toilet?

Well he didn't know there wasn't any water until trying to flush. At least around here, our toilets have water in the bottom, and the way it flushes is you dump lots of water from the tank in, and it goes through this S bend thingymajiggy, and it's flushed, and new water is in the bottom. I dunno if other toilets work differently. But in our house, a dry toilet will flush once, and then it won't refill the tank, but there'll be water in the bowl. If you use it after this point, you might find yourself in a pickle. But you won't know there's no water till you try flushing.
