I was scared to flush the toilet. I imagined (for some odd reason) that at the end of the pipe was The Incredible Hulk and he would be forced to eat my waste. I knew this would enraged him and that any day he was going to bust through the toilet and get me... it was just a matter of time. So I would flush and then run as fast as I could to an area of the house where the were family members between the toilet and me. I figured he would only kill the person he thought did it and therefore the closest person to the toilet and not me. I guess it was a matter of survival.
