iBot Poll: Concerning your toilet paper

I've read the 'inventor' intended for it to be over. The original perforations were cut for that purpose.

Wasn't it back in the old days that Sears catalog was used for TP?

I think I read that in a history of toilet paper. :smirk:

I think it was my father that told me that on the farm one used a corn cob - and if you had only one, better make sure to get 'all of it'. lol. Country life - seemed so - primitive when put in such terms...

I think humanity as a whole has been collectively duped into leaving remnants of crap stuck to their bums by using wiping devices (I include myself until recently) that cost them money. The French had the best idea with their bidet.


Edit: I also find it amusing this thread has been given a 5 star rating. Is the mysterious ibot behind that, I wonder? lol.

I haven't bought TP for like a month now.

My $6 portable bidet is a wonder cleaner, used properly. Me bum has never been cleaner.

I feel this is an important step in my evolution above the culture in which I was raised. Smearing poo around with paper so thin it can't be written upon is for primitives.

I have risen above and now have pride a place with the bum blasters.

For the life of me the thought of water shooting up my nether regions just... :scared:

One gets used to it

That's precisely how I envision it, only not as pleasurable :;-D:

The first few times it's - interesting. Then one learns to relax (this is important when using a bidet) and it's easy, faster than tp, and much cleaner. I use warm water, fill up my bottle only once now, and everything gets clean. Takes a little practice - but the advantages are many. I hated it when I had to rush to the store to get tp cuz I had run out....or if I couldn't wait use paper towel or something...then it doesn't flush right - or you scratch yer bum. This method is no scratch, no bleed, get it all and don't have to bother with tp. If you have a proper bidet your hand doesn't even get near your bum either...so technically there's no need to wash your hands, although I do anyway.

My guess is that people with bad arthritis, bad backs, and other conditions that make use of TP difficult would like a bidet of some kind.

Bump. We have some new members. :heheh:

Few months short of year now. I love my $6 investment!

Both, it doesn't matter to me.
