      At home, sure, but not available anywhere else I go. And as they say, “my boss makes a dollar and I make a dime…”

        they make these things called “peri bottles”. they hold about 16 oz of water and make excellent portable bidets. i steal them from hospitals (no i’m not joking i take at least two every visit, for what i’m paying i should take a gross). fill them with warm water before you pop in to do your business (if you have time. i recognize i’m talking about luxuries not everyone has. i would keep two in my bag full of cold water at all times and one empty just in case i had the time to get warm water. this is literally why i started carrying a purse back when i was a boy)

        Do what I did…
        Buy a 3d printer.
        Design and print a funnel that can clip under the rim of any toilet that diverts some of the water up your arse.
        Do the poopiest of poops.
        Clip the AnywayBidet™ on to the toilet.
        Flush toilet.
        And, BOOM, you now know why I’m banned from every ikea in the UK.

        Ok, maybe I should’ve tried it in the actual toilets rather than the showroom area. Either way the AnywayBidet™ is a surefire way to get people talking!!

          i was just commenting above: i know the “portable bidet” as the “peri bottle”. i used to be a frequent flier in the hospital and they’re a standard hospital supply. i could always walk out with two or three per visit. like shit, i remember walking in once and asking if i could buy some, they sent me to housekeeping, filled my bag up and told me to run for the exit. ymmv but y’know

            I think peri-bottles are a bit more contoured/angled specifically for women’s parts, especially pregnant women. Whereas the portable bidets are not quite so angled. The targeted hole is slightly different.

        That was a poem for a simpler time.

        And now my boss makes a grand
        And I don’t see one cent
        And he’s got employees
        That can’t pay the rent

        Wet wipes make do. Not a perfect approximation by any means, but better than dry wiping with what feels like a wad of sandpaper
