#bidet

I was living with Betty at the time and she and her boyfriend heard he was from the Middle East and started making jokes about whether he'd know what a toilet was. I was unamused and informed them that the Kuwaiti dinar had three times the weight of a US dollar which quickly silenced them.

Betty was further shocked when he arrived and asked why we didn't have a bidet. "Every room in my house has one, you guys just wipe with dry paper all the time? Doesn't it hurt?"

"I guess we get used to it," I replied.

"Is that why Americans have the phrase 'hard ass'? Because your assholes get so calloused?"

I absolutely lost it and didn't realize he wasn't making a joke. The question stuck with me for years causing aftershocks of laughter whenever it popped into my head.

Beautifully painted trompe l'oeil swagged material and stonework cover the walls of this distinctive bathroom. The comparative warmth of the 'material' is offset by the deliberate cold, stone effect. The room itself was painted with artist's oil colour in two tones of buff, mixed with glaze and given a coat of polyurethane.

I finally have a submission for you!

Sometimes you're squattin' on the porcelain throne and a comic idea smacks you so hard that you gotta shit it out ASAP.

Some additional reasons I prefer handheld bidets over bowl styles:

There's far less cross-contamination of fecal matter to your urethra, because more often than not you're spraying from the front, NOT the back like those other ones do. I stopped getting so many UTIs once I switched.

But no, seriously, rinsing your junk whenever you want or need to??? Fantastic. Outstanding. Amazing. Love it. Great on a hot day or when I've been sitting at my desk for too long.

It's also perfect for rinsing off stuff after ✨activities✨. -They're SUPER easy to install and unobtrusive.
