How do you not drip back onto it? Do you use paper too? How is it okay for me to use the same one right after Typhoid Larry? Doesn't poo go everywhere?

It just seems so weird.

Squirting your asshole with water does’t make you gay.

Are you sure though? I’m scared to test this theory.

I remember reading a comment thread on reddit about a guy who discovered his friend refused to wash his ass crack in the shower because he thought it was gay.

I definitely worked with that guy.

If you’re scared of being gay you might actually just be gay.

In all seriousness though, everyone should get a hand bidet installed on their toilets ASAP. Once you squirt your asshole with water to clean the poop off you will immediately realize how disgusting you’ve been up until that moment in your life using only flimsy ass ass paper to wipe shit off your body.

I swear, Puritanism really did a number on North America.

But it does makes me feel fabulous. Hey whatever, buttholes have a lot of nerve endings. That's not my fault, that's just nature. And if it feels good AND means I'm clean that's just a win-win, amirite?
