My wife does this all the time, and if I don't check before I spritz I get an unexpected ball splash.
NSFW for potential topic sensitivity I guess.
Why are you hot linking some google images bidet instead of just uploading the image to the post?
alternatively: why are you linking to an image at all and not just making a text post
Answering both: dial image for reference to what the "modes" are, and my dial is gross. Plus that was the best image I could find describing it, but had trouble getting a clean download. Google images can suck that way. If you get me a clean link, I'd update the post.
Just right click on an image and choose open image in new tab. 99.99% of the time you'll get a plain image. Sometimes you'll have to trim the URL if the site adds properties to the image.
There is no valid reason for the toilet seat to ever be up when you enter the bathroom.
You close the lid before you flush, that's why it exists.
edit: added "valid"
But I like seeing my turds circle the drain
I don't like it, but watching the flush can save a whole lot of pain. Clogs suck.
Flushing isn't exactly silent, though? The toilet getting clogged should make a very noticeably different sound.
This might be different in mostly wooden homes like in the US, but here with stone homes the majority of the noise of flushing comes from the actual water rushing into the bowl plus the tank beginning to refill. The actual drainage causes virtually no noise.
Laziness is a reason
But after flushing I still need to check if I need to use the toilet brush
Leaving the toilet seat up is moot because the lid should be closed when flushing
I thought the results of later tests was that it doesn't actually make a difference, fecal and urine particles are found on all near surfaces either way?
If you’re referring to the Mythbusters attempt, I think all they proved was that fecal bacteria was everywhere. That’s not the same as saying spewing forth another cloud doesn’t make a difference
I need to join you elves with a bidet. Idk why I'm still living in Mordor.
Same. I think part of me worries it's all I'd ever want to do.
Just get the ones that aren't heated and it'll discourage you from using it too much.
You learn to enjoy the cold, too. Also, it can be one hell of a way to wake up too.
Saruman had the only bidet in mordor
Is the “feminine” mode hygienic? I’d worry about it pushing bacteria and crap up there.
According to my urogynecologist, who specifically instructed me to always point my shower wand downward when washing my nethers, spraying water can indeed push bacteria up there!
It may only be dangerous for the subset of women who have problems requiring a urogynecology specialist in the first place, IDK, but better safe than sorry.
There’s a feminine mode? Aren’t assholes all in the same spot?
Assholes are, but that's not what it's for
Sometimes a spritz to the gooch is just what I need to remember it takes 2 to tango.
Yes but women have a pee hole between their labia and if you don't rinse that then what even are you doing? I'm not interested in walking around with pee-stained lady parts, thanks.
Piss-flaps.
They're called piss-flaps.
You don't want your balls washed?
Do I need to upgrade my bidet? Ours is one dial for cleaning mode which rotates/plugs the sprayer, and one dial for spray, which is just connected to the valve.
This is how mine is too.
Middle is the off position. Turning to the left is for the butt and turning to the right is for vagina.
There is no setting to leave it to when done except off and the next person to use gets to choose.
Mine isn’t electrically powered, just a valve for opening up the flow of water and then using two different sprayers varying on height.
You actually have to switch modes? Mine just has a lever that goes either forwards or backwards depending on which nozzle you want to use.
That lever is how you're switching modes
Mine has a dial + lever combo.
Sounds like someone has never gotten up to sit inside of an open toilet when it was dark.
Just another reason the bum gun is the best choice.
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
