The fuck....am I the only person who doesn't understand how people use like 1 or 2 sheets to wipe their fucking shitty ass.... Like seriously I wrap up a stack of tp so that I got a solid base before I wipe. I think using a few sheets is disgusting. By the time my ass is shitless my toilet is on the verge of clogging.

It depends on what you eat. Somebody here in this thread mentioned the "perfect turd".
And the perfect turd is a dream for anybody who needs to shit. Because it will leave your body the same way a torpedo is launched from a submarine : Nice and clean. A rock hard turd or multiple rock hard turds. Leaves your butt clean. If there is huge amounts of poop to smear away (Like plastering a wall) every time you need to take a dump, you need to reconsider your diet. 😱

It boggles my mind that people have this "ass smells like shit" problem. I've met people who have this problem and I just don't understand it. For some people, it's apparently normal to have a shit-smelling ass and skid marks on underwear 😵

There must be some fundamental difference between the way I clean my ass and the way these people do.

I wrap the TP around my hand a couple times, then pull it off. With my thumb gripping one corner and 4 fingers behind it, I wipe front-to-back. I toss the paper and do it a couple more times until no more shit appears on the TP. Then, my ass is clean. Is it really so hard?

No matter how good you wipe with paper, you're still only smearing the shit all over your ass and it will leave a residual smell. Thus wet wipes or washing with water afterward is the best way to thoroughly clean if you care about that. But yes, there are those that don't care and walk around with shit stains and dingleberry's hanging off their ass.

You're using the wrong kind of paper.

People still don't get that merely wiping with paper is not good enough.

Say the paper breaks while wiping and you get it on your fingers. Are you just going to wipe off your fingers with more TP? I'll bet they will still smell like shit if that's the way you clean them. What any person will do after wiping is go wash their hands with soap/water. Any poo smell on your fingers is cleaned away properly. The ass is no different. You can wipe until it is raw and bleeding but it is still not clean because no soap/water is used. TP only cleans so much.
 
I don't find any skid marks in my undies after using just TP, not saying it cant get a little cleaner though. I mean whats next, anti bacterial anus soap?
 
I only clean my corn-recycler with 100% Pure Egyptian cotton, with no less than a 6,000 thread-count. Anything inferior is not only uncomfortable, but insulting to my delicate loaf cutter.
 
I dunno about those ones that hook onto the toilet. I saw one installed at a buddy's house and it has a nozzle that hangs low. Due to its location, it had been thoroughly coated and sprayed with all kinds of splashback, shrapnel etc... It only sprayed cold water too. For a hot water one, you need to provide electrical to the area or possibly plumb a hot water pipe under the toilet. The unit was cleverly hidden in the back of the toilet seat but thats the area that arguably gets the most soiled. Now you have the toilet porcelain to clean as well as this plastic thing in the back. Perhaps there are better and more expensive ones out there but the one I saw grossed me out and seems like a pain to keep clean. You couldn't just hit the nozzle with a toilet brush, you had to use a sponge to wipe the shrapnel off of it. I'd rather stick to a regular bidet. You dd your shitting in the toilet and then move to a bidet and wash up with soap/water. The con is the space needed for a bidet. But you get alot more room to wash under yourself on the bidet than trying to do that on the toilet. And those toilet bidets only spray water, no soap....so I don't see how well they can clean you.

Don't buy the cheap ones 😛 High end ones have motors to move it in position.

Yeah, that's my worry about the ones that hook onto the toilet. I have IBS and take some pretty rough poops sometimes and that bidet would be ruined. I wouldn't mind springing for a fancy one but I don't have the money 🙁
 
the cheap stuff they use in public bathrooms is just bad.

But the supermarket-branded TP is good enough.

I prefer water anyway.

Real bidets are the best.
If you don't have space, install a bum gun. It's a bit cramped to use the toilet instead of the bidet but it's better than nothing.

Japanese washlets look unhygienic as fuark and probably are.
