100% not that they use too much paper. You were supposed to fold the paper not crumple them into balls before use!!! A paper ball will turn into a soggy baseball. Get multi layer paper and use 4 or less squares of it depending on the seriousness of the issue down there. I used to crumple the paper but it's not the proper way. You should fold it at the seams or midway between seams if the count is uneven. Nowadays I can even use 2-3 squares double folded after mastering it and making a cup around my fingers, then swipe. Then I use 2 pieces only to check if enough. That's it. No cloggage ever. Only happened to me when I was very sick and had diarrhea which requires a lot of paper as many may know. There's just no fucking way Geck shits elephant sized turds or maybe the American food is that much diarrhea inducing and it's "normal" there. I hope this was helpful for some people. Parents don't always teach their kids properly and it's just as much the problem of the parent no matter how angry they are for clogging the shitters. ❤

Lyle I have a question for you.. are you doing alright buddy?
One thing the third caller might want to do is look into is ocd treatment. It sounded like he was having intrusive thoughts about being a killer and that can be hard to bring up with people or geckos if you don’t know about how intrusive thoughts work and if the people you’re telling don’t either. Thoughts like that can be very isolating so I hope he can get some help

I was going to comment EXACTLY this!!! He needs to know that this is an actual symptom. He is not insane. He must feel so isolated and misunderstood. He needs to witness others with the same intrusive thoughts. OCD is a trip. Maybe watching videos from SoftWhiteUnderbelly would help, that guy does interviews on real people struggling with CPTSD & OCD.

Lyle, I'm super glad you were able to get out of your mom's house on the terms you did. Every time I hear you talk to somebody about that situation, I hear really healthy and respectful attitudes. Trying to apply those attitudes in my own situation. Thanks for that.
When you can relate to one of these stories in any capacity, it makes you feel seen and is so helpful
21:30 Geck gives God Tier Advice for those of us stuck on imagined revenge, wanting to get even and just letting it go as it just hurts us in the end, thank you Geck
I think the first guy would benefit from talking to a professional, which is something that should have been suggested. He sounds like a good guy and he shouldnt beat himself up and he definitely IS on an upward trajectory. However, what happened to him is very tramautic😢 and if he doesnt get the support he needs to process it in a healthy way hes prone to relapse and/or it could cause many other long term issues..hell he could relapse regardless, and thats another thing he should get some support for. Calling here was a good place to start and clearly guy is reaching out and i applaud him for doing so, its definitely a good step in the right direction. So many ppl dont even try to talk about this shit and just pretend it didnt happen... which usually makes it worse in the long run. The problem here is that obviously Lyle had no idea how to address any of that...bc hes not a professional...so he didn't try, which is probably good but the reality is, he's ill equipped. There are much better resources available who can actually help. I really really hope this guy reaches out to a qualified person/source who is trained to deal with these issues. He can absolutely make a full recovery but its important to get specific support for the things hes been thru...i just hope he understands that what happened to him was NOT his fault, regardless of the drugs/ situation.
17:00 "holding on to anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to get sick" All the rice farmers in the world Am I a joke to you gecko!!!???
It’s honestly super easy to unclog a toilet with just a plunger. I don’t get why so many struggle with it.
Lyle, love the name!! And Love this stuff!! Your awesome Dude!!
I used to clog every toilet until i started eating more veggies 😂 also, who tf uses just 2 squares of tp. I use MINIMUM 4-5 P.S. if you can get hot water in the toilet, its going to help with unclogging... happy pooping 💩
Love the music Lyle
46:25 Lyle’s delivery here is hilarious
Hey geck you’re a beautiful soul and gec. Sometimes even a gec needs a gec. I know it’s hard but you’re making life easier. It felt like I was listening to myself after I attempted during the second call. Anyways mad love happy new year
Happy new year gec🐛
I've been on a roll of watching all of Lyle's videos. Hoping to see him in Austin if he adds it to the tour list. 😊
It's not easy to be dead, it's not hard or easy, it's just nothing. Life is hard and we all think of happiness as an eventual destination we hope to one day reach one day but it's happening now. Happiness is glimpse of light in perpetual darkness, it is a fleeting moment of joy you have to learn to hold onto instead of the many hardships. It's a laugh, your favorite meal, a beautiful sight, a warm hug, a good friend. Learn to recognize what you have now, those moments, people, places and things that make life worth living. I always hope for the best but expect the worst bc there is no promise tomorrow will be better but there is always a possibility. We're all going to die one day anyway so we may as well tough it out until then if for nothing else than curiosity. Don't give up, there are no second chances, once you're gone, you're gone. I'll be the first to admit my life is the furthest thing from perfect but it's Mine.
I love this.

Emotionale Support geco
Oh shit I'm 26 and clog toilets all the time too
The first guy seems to be someone with simple values. Having money to sustain oneself is crucial; income is necessary. But about the mistakes we make in life, no one is born knowing. However, we learn, and that's the most important thing. If you've been through the things you mentioned and didn't disappear into a black hole, you have spirit. But try not to focus on childish matters.

I feel for you brother. I grew up in humboldt county, ca. And i have seen/ heard this story too many times. You have a good head on your shoulders. Feel free to reach out if you ever need to talk more man.
Luke needs therapy because I relate. I have weird intrusive thoughts, mine is jumping in front traffic or a moving train. I'm aware that it's normal to have intrusive thoughts but when it disturbs you, you need therapy. It could be a form of OCD. It goes paired with other symptoms too. (FYI, no having intrusive thoughts doesn't automatically mean you have OCD. It's normal unless its disruptive to your life because of the frequency.)

I think that guy on the acid trip was just freaked out by similarities in his life path to those of a serial killer. He probably wasn't sure if he was talking about sexuality struggles or killing people because the documentary he watched seems to have drawn some association between the two that sent him on a bummer.

@ serial toilet clogging ... squirt some dish soap or laundry detergent in the bowl, let it sit a mo before flushing. If alone, leave it a few hrs or even overnight before flushing. this has become a running joke w/ my grown son & I. and recently he sent me 2 different screenshots from friends running into the issue ... responding "Holy Sh*t, it works!"

Personally, I am a plunger wizard. Weird flex. But I know exactly how to massage that hole so everything flows through. That probably wouldn't help much if you are laying down two foot logs. Side note, I wish I had a bidet.
i think luke's religious upbringing really messed him up. someone else commented about ocd and there's a subsect called moral ocd, tons of people with religious upbringings have this and the ones who stay religious into adulthood will become stricter and stricter in their beliefs. he seemed to equate sexuality and gender exploration to something criminal, something aligned with and would eventually lead to becoming a killer. he also needs to go to therapy, one of the questions on the forms they get you to fill out before even meeting with anyone is if you have homicidal thoughts (i don't think he necessarily qualifies, but the conversation that would start with the therapist would be very helpful. it's hard to open up at first)
Can we get a whole episode of toilet clogging? That was some funny shit. (No offense Lyle)
I empathise so much with the second caller that got cheated on. Same thing happened to me and I think the anger is somewhat me being angry with myself for engaging with someone who wasnt a faithful person ... I also believed I was special. The difference is that I am not passed it for three years ... its such a mix of shame and anger and all things that gives me power to go on vs. accepting that I've lost. Its gone so far that I think my sexuality has changed and I am hardly able to get off to porn without it being some kind of cuck fantasy. Even if the porn is not cuckhold themed, I imagine being in a relationship with the woman that is beign fed, which is pretty much the same as cuckhold, right, since you are watching someone else fucking, right?

To the serial toilet clogger, i habe lived in usa for 10 years & in Australia. American toilets & American plumbing is really useless. Here in Australia we have much higher plumbing & building design plans. We have gushing water pressures that obliterate any pesky turds. I did notice in usa the occurrence of a re-emergence of a prior flushed turd. This would never happen in Australia.
Is geck okay :(
that's part of the bull shit they taught my generation. do what makes you happy, do what you want, do what makes you feel good, in terms of jobs. then you end up in college not knowing what the fuck you're doing, wasting $, or w/ a degree you can't do much w/. like i'm not saying you shouldn't do things that make you happy or not do a job that makes you happy but the focus should be on finding a job that allows you to be able to live the way you want, afford a house, have a family, make good financial choices so you have $ to fall back on for health issues or when things go bad. especially b/c of the way this fucking country is now. we're not taught the right things in school, like how to live, how to make good financial decisions, how to take care of ourselves & learn how to do things on our own. like ngl, telling someone to sell all their shit & live nomadically or move from place to place isn't a good idea b/c nowadays if you make one mistake it can fuck your entire life up.

The toilet problem is, in fact, related to toilets, as well as the users. Of course, your diet and GI idiosyncrasies play a part, but American toilets are just subpar. The German ones have this step, that allows shit generate vertical momentum and leave our realm much quicker, once you flush. Besides, you get to observe if there's blood or anything, much easier than with American or French toilets. If you can choose, I highly advice German type toilets.
