    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 said you just wipe it off with a napkin and go about your day.

            Sounds like you’re not using soap and warm water to wash your hands for at least thirty seconds after every poop.

        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.

          Well I hope she owned it, though if pre-covid probably not. Sentiment has shifted a little since the great tp shortage.

          If I was her today I’d fuckin own it. Already use those portable ones to shit in the woods.

      I have a bidet but can only use it in the summer because the water is ice in the winter :(. I’d love to hook up the hot water to it but there’s no way to do it in my rented house
