An electric toilet bidet - install one and you’ll never go back to paper.

They’re probably hoarding for re-sell at a jacked-up price.

One thing I learned as a college kid years ago doing the bar/concert scene. ALWAYS carry pocket tissues.

That memory came in handy when I just visited the ME.

Corn Cobs.
Junk Mail.
The Koran.

There’s plenty of fine substitutes.

"electric toilet bidet"

Electricity & water & your body.

Hope the installer believed in solid grounds

Was in two Walmart stores yesterday. No alcohol or hand sanitizer but plenty of hydrogen peroxide, dish and hand soap and full shelves of toilet paper.

Corncobs ain’t out o style! Neither is twigs. Wash rags can be bought cheap. Just launder after with soap and bleach.

I remember a man who, after he done his business at a construction site, used a handful of fiberglass insulation.

Hospital time for him.

The outlet is grounded. Never had a problem with two toilets in the last half-dozen years - and my wife would probably get rid of me before she got rid of the toilet bidet.
