Comments about ‘Shot-up toilet getting a formal, final flush’

made me laugh!!!!! very clever eulogy

We should all acknowledge this tragedy with a moment of "flushing."

Any truth to the rumor that the tidy bowl man will deliver the eulogy?

At least our crusty friend fought back (shards of porcelin shrapnel). What a total waste!

Toilets beware! THEY WILL BE THE NEXT TO BE FEDERALLY BAR CODED AND TAXED BEYOND HUMAN DUMP! ANYTHING"S POSSIBLE IF YOU LOOK BEHIND YOU!

...that "John" spent his entire life in that cramped, dimly lit smelly stall. Now he'll be enclosed in an airtight box and buried underground.

It's good to know that concealed carry permits protect us from lurking evils like rogue toilets. This could have been tragic!.

Thanks for the laugh. I needed that.

Hopefully there will be a viewing for those of us who spent "intimate and private moments" with John, that we might pay our last respects. And, don't forget plenty of tissue in case we need to "wipe" our eyes.

To heck with the Charmin' - at Carl's Jr. Mr. Whipple should say "Please don't squeeze the trigger".

Let this be a lesson to all toilets - beware of idiots with loaded guns.

This is just one more example of our legislature's refusal to plan for the future. Instead of saving the huge surpluses the State had just a few years ago for tough economic times, the legislature wasted the money and/or gave back miniscule tax refunds that the taxpayers didn't even want. Giving a few dollars to each taxpayer does nothing to help the taxpayer--all it does is create exactly the kind of economic mess that the State is in now.

Is it weird that I am tempted to show up to this funeral? I wonder if my boss would mind.

I think we need more funny news like this. After reading about dads throwing their four-year-olds off bridges, parents choosing mass murder instead of unemployment and the constant reminder of how our economy is slowly slipping into oblivion, it's nice to read something light hearted.

"eulogy" and if I have time, will attend the funeral for the decedent.
It is refreshing to have a corporate spokeshole, be so forthright and dealing with this loss so well.
Might be time for a "Super Star" in my very near future at that very CJs'.(almost anything is better than Arctic Circle....)

This is exactly why I don't like guns, let me rephrase that, stupid people with guns. This story is pretty funny though. I like the funeral service idea.

Only in Utah, those a toilet get accidentally wounded, John gave his all to protect us bad plumping

THIS IS STUDID

COME ON THEY COULD BE WRITING BETTER THINGS THEN TOLETS

See what happens when they install those low water usage toilets? They just don't hold up under a small piece of lead.

I thought it was a delightful story. This is one where "potty humor" is totally appropriate.

This story made my day, kind of like getting a royal FLUSH on the video poker machine in Wendover.
I wish we had more stories that made us laugh. This one was great because no one was humiliated, no one was hurt.
The manager at the restaurant is to be commended for his ability to take this incident and use it positively.
