Disagree, it means I have to fight with my partner for use of the toilet and she is somehow always in the bathroom
Don’t you get bored of masturbating in the same toilet everyday?
Fuq yeah! I have a fancy Japanese bum-washer, it’s far better than anything in an office, and you don’t have to worry about what sounds or smells you make.
I can only imagine. Can you image working in construction? No break room. Nowhere to sit for lunch. Eight porta potties for two hundred workers, sitting in the direct sun on a code red day. Dude that cleans them is puking.
When I got higher up, and got access to an entire building, I’d find an empty floor and use those bathrooms. Pure luxury.
I’m in shambles any time I have to shit without a bidet
Americans are disgusting pigs running around with doodoo asses
I think my butt would get sore if I used the toilet all day long but its definitely better than doing it at work
I’m doing so right now.
Installing a bidet was one of the best decisions I’ve made in the bathroom, but it makes pooping at work a lot worse.
Only using TP now makes me feel like cave man. If you got poop on your hand, would you just wipe it off with napkin and go on about your day? No.
To be fair, I don’t go around touching things and eating with my bare buttcrack all day. I do those things with my hands, which I wash after going to the bathroom. And I shower at least once a day and clean that buttcrack with soap.
That’s not to say that a bidet isn’t better than TP, just that the analogy never made sense.
You’re still carrying it around with you. Forget about it being on your hands - if you got some shit on your leg, would you wipe it off with a paper towel and call it a day? You’re not touching things and eating with your shins after all
If that’s all that were available, and if repurposing existing fixtures to jury-rig something would be awkward and violate social norms, and if the leg-shit were always someplace where the contours of the human body kept it from really touching anything else, and if my culture had a practice of including an extra layer of relatively expendable clothing that was always between the leg-shit-spot and my pants, then yeah, I’d manage.
It’s not that it’s a terrible analogy, but it’s more a bit from standup routine than a revelation about life. That being said, I’d still very much prefer to be able to wash it off with water, and while my shins are generally fine, I try to avoid pooping outside the house and will not be giving up my home bidets, thank you very much.
It’s not supposed to be a “revelation about life” though??And I wasn’t talking about taking a shit in public, I just said getting shit on your leg.
If you’re walking barefoot in a park and step on some dog shit, I doubt you’ll feel clean after wiping it out from between your toes with a dry paper towel. Even (especially?) if you put shoes on after
I feel like this thread has a bunch of Charmin employees commenting.
i wash my butt and legs with soap every time i poop
So you’re saying you have soap with your bidet? I don’t typically see soap as part of usual attachments.
What? Where did I mention soap in either scenario?
Explicitly? Nowhere, but then again you offered no alternative, just made the comparison of using TP on your butthole with using a paper towel on your leg.
Nevermind that we don’t typically pressure wash our legs when we get things on them, poop or otherwise, the inference seems to be that we should want to wash the area. Which typically uses soap.
Now, if you want to actually finish your analogy so it fully explains differences and have a full discussion about it, feel free. I’m sure plenty of people will have fun poking more holes in it, though, so I hope you don’t get too up in arms about it.
Nah man, I’m good on the analogy since you seem pretty heated about it lol
I’ll just accept that you think rinsing something off with water is somehow less clean than wiping it off with a dry paper towel.
No, but I eat with my hands. My butt hole hardly ever touches my food before I’ve eaten it.
hardly ever
It’s rare, but it still occurs.
Not ruling it out.
You know that cucumber in the salad that you just ate…
I just read your comment as, “I eat butt with my hands.”
You don’t wash your hands after shitting?
That’s not what I said at all.
Omg I came here to comment exactly this. Such a luxury
You know, you could bring a water bottle to the bathroom and one of these pocket sized bidet caps and nobody would really know. Unless you chose a crinkly bottle I guess
That is a phenomenal tip right there!! Didn’t know these products existed, thanks a ton.
Um… my dude… I’m going to need a lot more water pressure than that…
That being said, I wonder if you could make an adapter for a battery powered paint sprayer… or just give zero fucks and leave a pressure washer in the stall. Obviously not full power, but pressure wouldn’t be an issue then.
If you have the accessibility to leave a functioning pressure washer in the stall… you could just get a bidet installed.
20 years ago I worked with a woman with a special water bottle. Everybody knew.
Toilets without bidet…? How do people clean their ass? In the shower? They go around with stank ass all day
Umm… we use a little modern miracle called the Three Seashells.
I mean im not the type like my wife who will hold it to not use an outside toilet but I have to agree. I would say access to your fridge is equally useful though. Its just way more convenient overall. Sill not having the commute is tops. I generally had to give myself an hour on leaving to make sure I would arrive ontime and for whatever reason traffic always seems worse in the evening. So like 10 hours incinerated with travel per week. Then like the additional getting ready is like 30mins so thats another 2.5 and that fridge thing means you can eat without going out but you don’t have to pack a lunch. going to give that another .5. All the incidentals from walking my dog to being able to catch a 30min show at lunch im going to say its worth at least 2 more. Its easy to see its worth 25% on the low side and 30% on the high side (with the caveat that a job is useless if it can’t meet your bills).
I also eat healthier and tastier. I can do dishes, laundry, and clean here and there. I am MORE productive. I don’t have to commute. But my boss is a Conservative Gen-Xer who believes working from home is the devil.
Yes and I can use it as often as I want without guilt.
That and I can play music and videos with bothering anyone as background noise.
Actually the best benefit is being able to hang around my cat.
And husband, it’s nice to see him too I guess.
The toilets in my office are maintained by dedicated staff. The ones in my home are occasionally paid attention to by distracted volunteers.
I hover even in my home because i have to share it with my brothers
For me it’s my teenagers. We rarely clean their bathroom, they’re supposed to. They rarely clean it either.
Why tho? I never look around my workplace restroom and think, oh, that wants cleaning
Because public toilets are designed primarily to serve the employer, not the needs of the people actually using them.
I got a bidet on my toilet. 'nuf said.
