How did you know I ran out of toilet paper, I feel targeted. I do, but just to dry after. Got a cheap bidet a couple years ago, and now I don't pay enough attention to having toilet paper back stock. But you definitely want it, because no one wants to walk around with a wet bum
Weird tangent on the main post but I just got one of those "bum guns" off one of those unsold merchandise auctions and it's been life-changing. Ridiculously simple to install. Literally like one of those kitchen sink sprayers just T-jointed onto your toilet water supply. Why isn't this standard?!
I now no longer fear the bizarre crisis reaction of the masses that is "Make a mad rush to hoard all the TP."
And I'm hoping being nicer to myself will avoid unnecessary embarrassing future doctor's visits...
I always worried about having a small toilet and it being a pain to get underneath myself so mine is just one of those connect under the seat thing. 5 min install, plugged into the toilet water just the same, no power. Simple, and a small lever to adjust front back in the side. It was less than $30 at Walmart at the time. I never really went to doctors but I know I got hemroids around 18 from stress/riding a motorcycle long distances I think at the time. I used to get flair ups quite often. Hardly ever get any of those now if that's what you mean
I'm just mentioning it because I think that toilet paper as a single use item billions of people use at least daily is a much bigger issue of wasting trees than books - which last for decades and are very useful
There are modern toilets with integrated automated bidets and dryers. But they are unfortunately a bit expensive.
Oh, nah I wasn't saying they were a waste of life or something, I was just acknowledging it sounded strange in my head to say something never dies that is already dead.
Trees are renewable though, so they'll hopefully always be more. The dryer thing sounds nice for a bidet.
