Born to shit... Forced to wipe πŸ˜“

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Sometimes it's like wiping a marker

I bought bidets for the house during the COVID toilet paper lunacy and it's likely the best personal hygiene investment I've ever made. I still get upset when I have to poop somewhere that doesn't have a bidet.

I installed mine during COVID lockdowns - wife got one as a gift for baby shower and we never used it but 2 years later I broke it out during the dark times for toilet paper and it saved our ass, literally. Definitely the best improvement ever, yet some people do feel weird about them, like middle schooler homophobia or some shit

Japan was right all along

This is why I pay free range chickens to peck the shit off my asshole. It keeps them out of the factory farms, reduces water use, provides the chicken a fair day wage for a fair day of work, and keeps my butthole squeaky clean.

Yeah people are weird about bidets. They're obviously a great invention

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

"Piss on your arse" is so weirdly telling of how they conceptualise it...

[–] [email protected] 19 points 10 months ago (1 children)

There are some people.....

'stream of water' is wrong characterization, it's about a power-washing jet -- blast off those poo particles

[–] [email protected] 15 points 10 months ago (8 children)

Or you know, wash with water AND soap. I wash with a bidet and use liquid soap along with it. That’s no different than washing in the shower.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Do they make extra fancy soapy bidets?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I mean, i haven't actually been to Japan myself, but I've heard some things...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I haven't ever seen one there, but it's pretty likely.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Extra points if you use ones of these to spray your ass, if you don't have any good bidets, let alone bidet sprays to buy

They're not only as effective, but also portable...

I like the extremely narrow opinion held by whoever took the original screenshot, judging from their use of the agree/disagree buttons. They believe that some form of washing is necessary, but only the exact amount of a bidetβ€” using soap is too much. A very specific middle ground.

All I’m seeing is someone who upvotes what they agree with and downvotes what they disagree with lol

The original purpose was to upvote comments that added to the conversation and down vote those that didn't.

Intent vs. actual use can vary wildly.

The guillotine was invented as a convenient way to slice your melons, but it was unfortunately misused.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

Unfortunately? Sounds like you're a French bourgeoisie who needs an appointment with a guillotine!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago

I don’t lol it’s a terrible way to operate. It’s common unfortunately but it’s not supposed to be how it works.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago

Or just dont shit simple.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I just dump a liter of bleach in the upper deck and remove the seat. Nothing cleans you up better than a good swirl.

Lemmy needs a β€œVote for best of” feature.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago

I got one after a surgery because I couldn’t touch my butthole without screaming. And I still thought they were weird. Now I can’t stand it if one isn’t available. Fwiw, if you are a relatively clean pooper the toilet paper is mainly for drying off.

Hello fellow Jerboa user!

I have a high pressure water system at the ready. Remember: if it isn't peeling skin off flesh, it's not effective enough.

I like to back flush my sinuses to help with my allergies

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't think I'm going to smell anyone's asshole in a nearby future and I pray you don't either, friend.

Wipe until clean, spray your anus with water, just get the job done and shower often.

zizek-theory

but genuinely he has a bit about this. toilet habits are oddly politically important

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Who wants to tell them wet wipes exist?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

My old flatmate would shower after every. single. shit. Which was fine in the afternoon/evening. But we got up for work at the same time, and he'd take 20mins in the shower plus 10-15 pooping. Which meant I'd have to be up an hour earlier than I needed to be to be able to poop in the morning.....
