Desperate times call for desperate measures

I feel like the obvious solution in that situation is to just take a quick shower

It would be easier on the anus than paper towel, too.

My father always uses paper towels to blow his nose and I don't get how he does it. They're so hard and rough on the skin!

Bruh use a Kleenex in that situation not a paper towel

Lots of tissues are impregnated with plastics and shouldn’t be flushed, unfortunately.

[–] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

I'm not sure the last time I've had tissues in home...

I don't get it, what's supposed to be happening with that one single sheet of tp?

[–] charonn0@startrek.website 2 points 3 weeks ago

You have to use your imagination

I don't understand why people still clean their asses with toilet paper in their own home. A handheld bidet + towel is a much better alternative, in my opinion.

[–] ExtremeUnicorn@feddit.org 9 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

I have one.

Everytime I read this from you guys, I don't get if you're seriously overselling them or I'm doing something wrong.

3-4 water blasts and one wipe are definitely not enough most times. I have to wet wipe a few times and then dry off to get clean.

Maybe it's related to diet or I just have a high standard for hygiene, but I would never consider just drying off with a reusable towel, yuck..

Toilet paper still a necessity.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

I have a bidet too, I'd never just blast water without wiping first. The bidet gets you a lot cleaner. But I wipe, rinse, then wipe to dry. And fucking no, It's not with a towel wtaf.

I have young kids in the house, if I installed a handheld bidet I'm certain that they will use it to spray each other when I'm not looking, regularly.

So I'm planning to install a bidet but in not ready yet

[–] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

I have a toilet seat bidet, so toilet paper is just the after work.

[–] Nasan@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 weeks ago

Not opinion, fact. Cold and hard like my tap water, which has a bead blasting effect at higher pressures when needed.

Stop trying to make them happen, it’s not gonna happen

He will roll..

I didn't know there was more than just the songs from LOLNEIN. There goes my free time :3

Now you know why they made individual paper towel sheets smaller

[–] individual@toast.ooo 1 points 3 weeks ago

I go for the tissue box first

[–] Dorkyd68@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

May as well use sand paper
