This is why we need an ISO Toilet Paper Standard.
There are several:
- DIN EN ISO 12 625-4: 2005 (Dry tear resistance and perforation resistance)
- DIN EN ISO 12 625-5:2005 (wet tear resistance)
- DIN EN ISO 12 625 -9:2005 (Puncture resistance)
- DIN EN ISO 12 625-3:2005 (Paper thickness in use)
- EN ISO 12 625-8:2004 (Water retention capacity)
Yet there seems to be no standard for the size or number of sheets in a roll.
Nah, ISO fucks and I fuck with ISO
hmm, this is more like realizing your preferred language doesn’t have a word for a thing and deciding you want one.
Or just buy a bidet spray. Simple to install, no waste of paper and you can control the angle without having to touch the crevices.
I like my bidet, but I have no interest in letting my labia drip-dry so I will continue to buy toilet paper thank you.
You don’t have a hair dryer in your bathroom? /S
Are you walking away with wet butt? I have to dry with at least 2 squares post bidet
My fancy bidet air dries.
I mean, I still wipe but I just wanted to flex over my bidet that blasts warm air all over my booty hole.
Sounds like fecal particulate matter everywhere… if flushing spreads it, can’t imagine what an air blower does.
You use the cleaning function first, then the dry function. Don’t just dry the shit on there (well, maybe you would, but everyone else washes first, that’s the point of a bidet).
Woosh…
The point is that since flushing alone creates aerosolised particles.
Spray wash, then blow dry, would probably multiply that.
I mean we know that hand dryers are terrible.
Yes I’m sure the multiple countries that use them don’t have a fixation on being clean or anything at all, and are very pleased with blasting shit particles around. ^^/s
Bidet towel? Just clean the bottom real good and all you have to do is just pat-dry it. Am I going to meet more people who aren’t aware of this?
im not going to risk a towel in case I need a couple more sprays haha
You could put the towel in the wash if you’re initially doing poor job of cleaning.
Many more people yes. Bidets and their concepts are not well known in most of western countries.
Many people ain’t aware oft bidets and most of those who do know them assume they only exist in Japan or in Japanese toilets
You have a towel covered in poop just chilling in your bathroom and call it normal.
-
The jet spray from a bidet removes shit thoroughly from the ass cracks. Since bidets are effective at cleaning, it should not leave any poop stains.
-
You don’t use them while sitting. After you’re done with ass-washing, you get up from the toilet seat and dry your butt.
-
You’re not supposed to rub it, unless you want a bloodied, dangling rectum. It is used to absorb water, because the debris has already been dealt with by the bidet.
-
People shit only once or twice per day. The towel is replaced after 12 hours, or sometime even after every use, so what’s exactly wrong with it?
-
It isn’t supposed to be shared. I mean, you wouldn’t share a hanky or a body towel with someone else, would you?
-
Most people from around the world, especially in Europe and Asia, do this, so it is normal?
-
Eco-friendly? No paper is being wasted. Also no jammed toilets.
I use a bidet daily and sometimes theres still some poopy left after a few long sprays, I use toilet paper to dry off and do a check and then if its clean Im good to go, otherwise I hit it with some more sprays and check again. a few sheets of toilet paper is a lot better than no bidet but Im still not convinced a bidet by itself is good enough. at least here in the states bidets are simple bolt on squirters not a separate thing that might do a better job
I would share a body towel, there is just no necessity to do so.
I challenge you to get poop on your finger, wash it off under the shower head, and then rub your eyeball directly with that finger. Your towel has poop residue on it.
Sorry you have to hear it this way, but a butt towel requiring a wash in detergent and even more water than you just flushed is less eco-friendly than two squares of toilet paper.
I think you should give this a read. This should convince you to switch to a bidet towel. What I’m surprised about, is that you fail to see how regenerating forests is more difficult than regenerating water. It is very hard to repair the uprooted ecosystem. And no, new trees can not solve climate crisis. You can substitute an eco-friendly detergent. You can clean multiple bidet towels together. Forests, however, takes years to grow, changes in the eco-system can lead to ecological disturbances, and it has to be monitored carefully. This is not the case with water being contaminated with detergent - excess phosphates can cause eutrophication of algae.

You’re supposed to clean your ass first, my friend
Bidet has reduced my toilet paper usage, but it’s absolutely not a replacement.
1 mega plus = 4.5
1 “roll” =4.55555556
1 double plus = 2.26666667
1 super mega = 6.Sorry for formatting I’m on mobile
Double space (at the end of the line) = line break
Easy, regardless of the device you are using.
Hmm, doesn’t seem to be working. Might be specific on the apps maybe
All these brands talking about how much length of tp there is, but they’re cutting the width. So now tp rolls are stumpy and small
Just floss your cheeks, bro.
I call shenanigans. I haven’t even seen SpongeBob (it came out when I was in highschool/college) and I’m pretty sure that Mr. Krabs loves money too much to ever defile it like that. Or is that not an extra stretchy bill?
wdym lol he did that regularly in the early seasons
Like I said I never saw the show. I guess bikini bottom money is rubber
Bro, rolls are TINY now. They used to fill up the width of my holder, and now they fill up less than 60%. They’ve just cut off 40% of the product lol.
Hmm is the average toilet paper roll empty?
If you account for all rolls that ever existed, it’s pretty close to empty
It’s just meaningless marketing.
It usually says price per total area, but this whole thing is why I just buy the recycled ones. If someone’s going to cheat me it may as well be for a good cause.
Yeah but then the store uses different measurements on all the price tags so you need a fuckin calculator to actually compare them.
Just pick the ply you want and look at the sq.ft. of the roll. Odds are you want the most length per roll.
I usually just buy half a roll or so at a time from the guy behind the mcdonalds drive through.
Paper towel crowd is just as evil.
Toilet paper is just small paper towels that don’t scratch your butt
Now splinter free!
We need a new metric standard. Introducing the 💩.
112.6 standard rolls = 1k💩
This is why you always have to show your units!
I can show you my unit ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
C’mere
Hey nowwww
Hey nowwww🎶
You’re an all star
Bidet
What does this even mean, I buy them separately
It means they either roll it more tightly (more layers per inch) or they make the roll bigger (hope it still fits your roll holder) to stuff more paper on each roll. So they are advertising the package as “72 regular rolls” when it’s only 12 physical rolls.
I normally buy Charmin ultra soft at Costco.
I was at target and we were low, so just grabbed some there.
Turns out the rolls (cardboard tube and all) were like an inch less wide. For some reason that extra inch makes me comfortable, and I’ve been so angry at the Target rolls while I try to use them up. I have big hands… this kind of shrinkflation can get messy.
As gemers nexus put it “Bigger number better”
