I have a toilet that dosen't want to flush. Two quick plunges, and the away it goes. The slope on the sewage line seems fine, and the ven isn't plugged. Bad design for the toilet? Need to snake the line? I'm not a plumber, but it shouldn't be rocket science...

1) Object lodged in bowl passage.
2) Siphon jet or rim jets clogged.
3) Overuse of "soft" tissue paper.
