When I was in Rome 2 months ago, son called me into the bathroom claiming flush did not work, you had to hold the handle down constantly and even then it was spraying water in a strange way. Turned out it was a combo toilet-bidet with two different handles for the two functions. Bidet spray tended to splash out of fixture, so result of son’s mis-flush would not have been agreeable to Rob
im sorry but how do bidets cut down on toilet paper usage? you still need to wipe yourself dry unless you wanna walk around with swamp ass all day. how much pressure comes out of these things anyway?
I thought you were kidding Rob, with the mixing of the duvet/bidet thing.
I love bidets. After birthing my first baby (do I sound circa 1870?), I thought one would be an excellent idea (for any of you men out there who don’t get this, don’t try to picture it. It isn’t pleasant. And the help in using one lasts for several weeks post-birth because tp is simply too painful). And I was right, it was. And Rob, you keep soap or a cleanser on the bidet, so one is not still “dirty down there” following. Oh, and they are GREAT for cleaning little kids bums, feet, hands etc. Right at their height.
bidets are good, they used to be considered “French luxe” in new houses. They save on toilet paper, so that makes them green.
Has anyone tried the new waterless urinals? That’s the future!
Hey Everyone
anyone else bummed they couldn’t see the fireworks this year?
we went to the pier in Red Hook and all we saw were the wack-a$$ fireworks from Jersey City, not the ones from Macy’s!!! – oh well – there were lots of people in Red Hook though waiting for the fireworks so it was kinda funny when we all realized we wouldn’t be seeing them this year
Dibs- I remember that Target video – it was hilarious

Chemical fluid that seals the fixture by floating on top of urine, which just flows away. No flush
In the new green certified highrises such as 4 Times Square the toilets use captured rainwater and the urinals use no water.

I sound like an ad.
“Bidets are great. A lot of guys I know think they feel terrific.”
Why is it that all of a sudden the song “Tainted Love” pops to mind?
What do the waterless urinals use instead? Is it just re-circulated water?
