So for a serious post:
Just a PSA--check your toilet tanks to see if they are leaking--they can do that silently so you don't hear or see it.
Just put some food colouring in the tank & wait about 15-20 minutes--if the water in the bowl is coloured after that you have a flapper leak--and the good news is that they are easy, inexpensive & quick to replace--and if you pay for water by consumption it will add up & save you money.
even with a slow leak.
Replaced mine earlier today--didn't take long.

...and when you replace that black flapper valve, replace it with a silicone one, they last about thirteen forty five bazillion times longer.
