Whenever I travel now it suuuuucks. I bring baby wipes (and don’t flush them), but nothing can match my geyser throne.
Get yourself a HappyPo.
I’m stealing that term. 😂
Just bring a portable bidet! Essentially just a water bottle with a nozzle on it. Works well and fits in my backpack easily.
the warm water is the only necessity. I've used those cold water bidets at midnight in winter in Minnesota. The shriek woke up the entire damn hostel.
I bought a 35€ one that is just a jet of cold water you have to aim yourself. I don't find the coldness to be an issue at all. And now I essentially don't need to wipe anymore.
Why am I reminded of this….

I don't think I can ever go back to not having one
I miss having a bidet so much. You don't know what youre missing until you do
I got mine from Costco. Was like $99. Worth every penny!
Which one?! I didn't know they sold bidets!
Don’t leave us in the dark! What model did you get?!
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one thinking this.
I also warn people all the time about bidets: You instantly and irreversibly get ~~addicted~~ hooked after first use.
Nothing like a sparkling clean asshole you could eat off of.
I installed one 3 or 4 years ago. I went with the nozzle on a hose type.
Congrats on the clean starfish.

I laughed way too hard at this!!!
so jelly. I have wanted one forever. what did you end up getting? When I was doing better I was intent on doing it but sorta had decision paralysis.
i have an old Biobidet i got a few decades ago. it was a few hundred bucks but has a hot water tank on the side of the toilet. gotta get one with warm/heated water.
our house is basically set up that the bathrooms attached to bedrooms have warm water bidets (washlets technically) and the other bathrooms have simple cold bidets.
LuxeBidet is the model I got.
Totally entry level, hooks up to the water supply to the toilet tank. No heat or special features, stupid easy to install. Price around $50.
To my mind, no need to go more expensive until you know more what you might want.
I do have an aunt and uncle who got an expensive toilet bidet unit with heated seat and all the features... after having tried my bidet while visiting.
Plus with the cheap unit you get the bonus of hearing the startled yelps of your uninitiated guests as cold water hits their asshole for the first time.
Depending on bathroom layout you can also spray off the curtains for a quick in-place cleaning. This post sponsored by Luxe-gang.
I installed luxebidets during covid. Still working great. My wife and I both work in hospitals and didn't have time to fight the crowd for TP.
Dude I got a cheap $40 or $50 one from Amazon years ago that just sprays cold water and it's glorious. It doesn't matter which one you get, you just gotta get that water on your butt hole!
Worthy upgrade. There's some good YouTube comparisons too. I'm kinda surprised that Lowes and HD don't carry more brands in stock, seems mine an untapped part of the market.
Lowe's and HD suck ass, and not in the good way
HD guys in aprons very rarely do the courtesy of a reach around. Shout out to Barry at the paint counter.
Good choice. I've been using mine for much longer and have converted a few visitors as well.
Now, for maximum comfort during the evacuation process, the next step is a full squat platform (lilipad good, squatty potty bad). The advantages of the platform are subtle but measurable. Ideally you want one that sits below the knobs of the bidet, so it is more likely you'll want to DIY.
Why is squatty potty bad? I only know them from their ads in youtube
The owner of squatty potty has been accused of receiving CSAM.
whoof, that was a lot worse than the headline made it seem. i "received" csam last month when some shithead kiwifarms wannabe spammed it all over lemmy and i had to report the guy on multiple instances. edwards was part of an online sa gang.
but it's got warm water
A person of high standards! A fine luxury indeed!
