Bum Wiping & Wet One's Aka Moist Towelette's

[Kintsugi]

Dr Gillian McKeith, who inspects poo on the British TV programme 'you are what you eat' says that the perfect poo shouldn't need wiping and should leave the bottom clean - yuck

Actually, I go to an insane environmentally-focused ecologically-friendly school that has a crew (there's a work program here where all students are required to work for 15 hours a week on campus on a designated crew, to which they apply) that is solely responsible for making us more environmentally friendly as a school. They posted signs up ALL over the bathrooms in EVERY building saying that you use less toilet paper when there is less fat in your diet.

Great, so now I am worrying about how much toilet paper I'm using but also now concerned with what my toilet paper usage has to say about my dietary habits and weight and I just wanted to take a poo.

There's a veritable swamp between your cheeks, Miss. A dried up, crusty swamp with bits of tp sticking to the skin :D

Also this is not helping my way too stressful bathroom situations! ;)

Yer... like Government establishments, they usually have this standard, cheap, nasty stuff that doesn't wipe your bum, it just spreads it round and makes a huge nasty mess. :poop:

My aunt was a Nun and they were only ever allowed 3 squares of toilet paper and 5 squares for number 2's which she imposed at her house after leaving (tried not to do a poo when there :eek:)..... all I can imagine is if Anthony entered the Convent there would be some filthy fingers around :poop::speechless:

I would have been stashing toilet paper! I can see it now.

I am a perfect pooper then. Bow to me! All of you! Bow to my gift of perfect little poop pebbles!

HAVING YOU BEEN USING... using... toilet paper?!"

*shocked gasp* Oh no! :D

Then there is the whole issue of water wastage when flushing. I had a little book of ways to save water and in it was this little verse.

'If it's brown flush it down,
If it's yellow let it mellow.'

Yuck, not in my house, flush please

'If it's brown flush it down,
If it's yellow let it mellow.'

Apparently this was a state motto in California during a drought that must have been around the eighties or later seventies. They had all kinda of water restrictions.
We have a problem at our school with a lot of student prescribing to this type of mentality, but ACTUALLY they are only helping to spread illness and germs between our VERY small, tight-knit community, because the particles from excrement actually enter your body when you smell it!

It is also advisable to close the toilet seat before flushing and keeping your toothbrush in a covered container as when you flush, tiny particles of poo could get onto your toothbrush :eek::sick:

My little sister is kind of paranoid about that :D But I highly doubt that it will make a difference in the number of times you get diarrhea or other poop related diseases.

Plus when you flush with the lid closed, you don't see if you leave the toilet clean or if there's poop smear somewhere (be honest, do you take a look afterwards?). Fun for the next person to open that lid -.-

Seriously, this whole thread is making me want to put myself in a sanitary bubble.

Like blowing ones nose, we always check to see what is there :roflmao:
