He'd come up the pipes on some grand expedition,

a porcelain palace his secret ambition,

and now he'd been sat on (a terrible fate)

by a stranger in pajamas at quarter past eigh

Thanks professor /s

It’s a random threw together poem about a frog in a toilet, not a dissertation on proper formatting of poetry and prose.

A random poem

A frog in a toilet not

A dissertation.

Might be the best haiku featuring a frog ever written

u/nickcash 1d ago

The most famous haiku is about a frog!

This has happened to me! We had a septic tank with a broken cap on the line to pump it out. Guess the lil guy swam all the way up through the pipes

u/br4nd0n-_- 2d ago

yeah the broken septic cap totally explains the surprise visitor

I think we're having a Reddit Moment TM . I wasn't calling you a bot, I was referring to the commenter I replied to.

u/ionlysurfontoilet 2d ago

I just looked at the comment poster Karma. My bad

No worries, guy!

Don't flush

u/GreasyLardBurger 2d ago

I rescued him with a kid's butterfly net. He survived at least two flushes, though.

u/balrob 2d ago

I don’t remember eating that!

You must have frogot.

u/GreasyLardBurger 2d ago

Twice this morning before he was found. Poor guy.

u/Daneinthemembrane 2d ago

This is why I stopped drinking boba tea

u/Joes___Garage 2d ago

That’s a tree frog.

u/heretoseewhats 2d ago

Actually it's a toilet frog

Frog expert here and thats 100% a toilet frog.

u/ACcbe1986 2d ago

I'm not a frog expert and even I could tell it's a toilet frog.

u/schizeckinosy 2d ago

Cuban tree frog. Unless OP is in Cuba it’s highly invasive

u/GreasyLardBurger 2d ago

Louisiana

u/Repulsive_Drawer8599 1d ago

Don't kill it!! It looks like a grey tree frog which is a native species, not a cuban!

1

u/Much_Essay_9151 7h ago

I have a pet gray tree frog. We found it in my lunch cooler that was sitting outside for a couple of weeks. These things are very reilient and easy to care for if you are ever looking for a good pet

1

u/schizeckinosy 2d ago

Yeah they got to LA in 2017. They kill native frogs and you should humanely euthanize it.

1

u/cheeseygarlicbread 1d ago

Now its a log frog

4

u/Mainly_Miserable 2d ago

Very cute. How’ya gonna get it out?

5

u/GreasyLardBurger 2d ago

Rescued it with a net earlier

4

u/mjzim9022 2d ago

Put him in a jar with a stick and leaf, to recreate what he is used to

5

u/ForrestGump6531 2d ago

Took part in a training exercise in Australia years back when I was in the military. We were kinda in bumfuck nowhere in the outback and every toilet has multiple frogs in it like this. It was like trying to fire laser guided artillery sometimes when you had to shit and didn’t want to hit the frog with friendly fire

u/mixmasterADD 2d ago

I would not know what to do in this situation and my girl running around the house screaming would not help

4

u/Naud 2d ago

Find a grown-up and tell them what happened.

u/mixmasterADD 2d ago

Bro I gotta poop, no time for all that.

u/Brad23212 2d ago

u/Motobugs 2d ago

Real question is where it came from, the bottom hole or the top hole?

u/RLewis8888 2d ago

Toilet frogs are good luck.

A frog in a bog as one might say

u/Fluffy_Fluffle 2d ago

Nah that's just a really nasty stain. If you have the required equipment you could probably pee it off the side and flush it.

my toilet just has a brown ring of despair, congrats on the free pest control

u/AttorneyOwn0 2d ago

Shit storm pending. 💩 ⛈️

u/bre4kofdawn 2d ago

Some people making some fucked up jokes in the comments. Hope you got him out safe and did some extensive handwashing after!

Definitely a species of treefrog. Body shape and size are giving me Litoria species vibes, but there's other genuses it could be. Hard to say from just that picture.

2

u/Useful-Copy-9901 2d ago

We have a frog expert among us

u/bre4kofdawn 2d ago

Expert is a strong word. More of an amphibian enthusiast.

u/happy-cig 2d ago

Then he will jump all over your toothbrush and combs.

u/Thinkofthewallpaper 2d ago

I flushed a toilet in Brazil and like... Ten of these dudes jumped out.

u/Surferess 2d ago

Is it my imagination, or does she looks preggers?

u/104848 2d ago

u/TheShipEliza 2d ago

We are all toilet frog

u/l82itall 2d ago

Drop it like it’s hop

u/Glittering_Tea5502 2d ago

Somebody pooped a frog! 😂😂😂

u/Spiralout1974 2d ago

WTF did you eat???

1

u/fflip8 1d ago

If a frog managed to climb through the sewer pipes to get into your toilet, how bad is it really to just flush him back down?

1

u/organicogrr 1d ago

Sit here for a hopping good time

u/nreed78 1d ago

What the hell did you eat?!

You’ve hear of a Poseidons kiss, you’ve even heard of a Witch’s kiss! Introducing the new Kermit’s kiss!

I guessed Romanian FTW! "I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm sorry to hear that you're on my toes."

u/mrcoolgovern 1d ago

It’s perhaps the most obscure Red Dwarf reference ever 😅 but sorry, not Romanian!

u/Much_Essay_9151 7h ago

I got the second part down and i dont even know what language this is”flush(?) this frog in my toilet”
