No one. This is just a picture between swapping toilets and someone put dishonest text to it.
lol yeah if a breakup is such a common event in your life you’re just like “we’re done and imma go get some sleep now” that could be a sign you should work on your relationship skills
Depends on the relationship.
If you live with someone and you break up with them, you don't expect them to move out that same afternoon? Unless you're offering to put them up in a hotel or something.
I don't date crazies, I'd do it.
If anyone has a relationship with someone they can't sleep around after breaking up.....run.
Uhh they're already running

Toilets are relatively affordable (about $100 for a cheap but perfectly functional one) and actually quite easy to install. Unless there's deliberate damage that's not visible in the photo, this should take a trip to the hardware store and less than an hour of work to fix.
(A really malicious ex would have taken one of the kitchen cabinet doors. A matching replacement would probably have to be custom-made.)
thats a good idea, thank you.
Toilets are heavy, I'd be more concerned about physical danger from anyone willing to carry a toilet out of a house.
Toilets are heavy
…since when? It’s only ceramic, not cast iron.
And yes, the integrated jobbies aren’t light, but they are just unwieldy due to their size. The rest of them (at least 90+% of all residential toilets) you can just disconnect the tank from the seat and take each part out separately.
he doesn't have a cast iron toilet
Missing out
They didn't have to season their seat though.
Ever got one in an oven?
They are still an absolute pain to do on your own, especially if you are a small woman
Tip for next time - when having to lift a toilet, and you have at least a fingertip gap between the tank and the wall, you can do a vertical lift in the following manner:
- Take the tank lid off, disconnect the water feed.
- Drain the water from both the tank and the bowl. Bowl can be done by taking a large sponge or plunger and just ramming those down to push the water through the S-bend.
- Stick one hand down into the bowl’s drain hole, curl fingers up into that S-bend to hold it like a pail handle. Use a small face towel (don’t know the English term) if you need padding.
- Hold the back side of the tank with your other hand to stabilize the entire toilet.
- Lift with the hand that is in the drain hole.
The weight of the tank should balance out the weight of the front part of the bowl, giving you a reasonably balanced object, albeit not a light one. By lifting from the drain hole, you are putting the lifting motion close to the centre of gravity, making it a lot less awkward. If that is still too much weight, unhook the tank from the bowl and move separately, just be aware this will make the bowl quite front-heavy, you will need to switch hands and stabilize from the front of the bowl.
But still lift from the drain hole, it will still be easier than most any other method.
Source: not a plumber, but have done my fair share of toilet swaps in my time. Blue-collar jack-of-all-trades father who worked as head of maintenance at a large hotel showed me that trick.
I'd rather ruin my back then stick my hand in a poop hole.

I had to help parents replace a hinge on some that were made 15 years ago.
Company out of business, all stickers faded, different sizes in different places.
Happy to say after 3 trips to hammer barn, 3 days of trying different things and pulling my back twice (fucking low corners) we finally....
Gave up.

When was the last time you priced toilets? I was just looking at them at Lowe's and they're all $500ish. Maybe they have some cheap ones in the back?
2019, but I just checked and on their web page the store brand is $90.
Maybe he paid for it.
I remember something about a guy who had paid to put hardwood floors in his girl's place and then after the breakup he tore them up and took the wood with him.
I bought a house that was a foreclosure. I think they took what they felt they owned. That included a sink, all the smoke detectors, all the door knobs, all the appliances. It was strange.
In 2009 I was trying to find my mom somewhere to live. There were a lot of houses for pretty cheap since the 2008 crash had just happened. That was good, since my mom doesn't have any money. Since she doesn't have any money I went looking at a lot of foreclosures. Most of them were missing all of the appliances, all of the light bulbs, pretty much everything not bolted down (plus a few things that were), and a lot of them had holes kicked in the walls, counters destroyed, and whatever else the former owners could do to vent their anger at the banks. We ended up renting her an apartment since neither of us had the money to repair all the damage and missing features from the foreclosure houses.

It's probably safe to assume that a foreclosure sale involved at least some level of malicious compliance, especially one due to the 2008 housing crisis.

Reddit is a microblog now
Nah, it's just where people invent intriguing fictional back-stories for mundane pictures they find. Same as it ever was.
At the very least, I can't find this image without text referencing the toilet being stolen anywhere, so whoever originally posted it seems to have claimed that.

Well at least he took his shit with him
Or
That’s a shitty thing to do
If you can peacefully fall asleep after a breakup, you kinda deserve it
If someone did that to my bidet I would be forced to terminate any international treaty I had with them.
"Bidet as it may!"
That horrendous tile work.
Cant have shit
Wow, this is an old one...
Here's the second part.
He didn't have enough time before she woke up to replace her toilet with a toilet that has a tiny hole that's just for farts.
He shouldn't have spent so much time in Turbo Time.
It's confirmation that you shouldn't be with him.
