Why YSK: It’s cleaner, cheaper and more convenient than toilet paper

        That’s exactly the comparison that the comic strip is making. People are okay with just using tissue in one situation but not in others.

          I think the other comparison we’re overlooking is how many people would be ok with “just a quick rinse” if they were washing shit off their hands.

            Well it’s a quick rinse with or without some TP to dry versus just smearing it around your butt with dry paper.

      • … you don’t wash your butt?

        Your point is also the point of the comic: saying that you’ve rubbed dry paper on your butthole and that makes it “clean” is analagous to getting poop on your hands and doing the same.

        You wash your hands; you should also wash your butt: so get a bidet.

          Except that I don’t touch literally everything else including my food with my butthole, though. And it’s not as if I never wash my butthole. So if I happen to be in a public shitter and I drop a deuce, I will simply apply shit tickets and not freak out about it.
