What's some amazing technology they have in Japan that's very normal to them but would blow our minds here in the US and western world? (lemm.ee)

Installed one for my Filipina wife. Never used it myself. I have shit on that pot for months, still forget it's there. Old habits die hard.

Dude. Do it. Go. Right now. Don't even need to drop heat. Just go freshen up.

Yeah I gave it a go. Not a fan. Took a lot of drying and I'm not very messy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I got one with a dryer that makes that a lot better. It does take too long to fully dry it though, so it's this middle ground of not too wet to dry off, and not waiting forever for the dryer.

Do you not use any toilet paper? That's gross. You need at least a tiny bit, it helps to dry too

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Sorry my bad. Yes a little toilet paper. Much less because of the dryer.

I love how you're being downvoted for having a personal opinion that harms no one but dares to go against the circlejerk.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

Yeah 2 of my close friends told me it was the greatest thing they've ever bought. I was very disappointed to say the least.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Because dry wiping doesn't actually clean your ass, it just picks up most of the shit and smears the rest into you.

I understand why you like it. I don't understand why the other person isn't allowed to dislike it. Does it harm anyone if he "smears shit into the rest of him"?

Just use 2 squares of paper

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

OK guys -- Think about this -- What if you got shit on your hands or anywhere else on your body. Would you make this argument? Would you think that would be OK if someone told you they just wiped it off with a paper towel and went on about their day? no.
