Can someone explain the separate bidet? You take a shit on the toilet then crab walk over to the bidet or what?

[-] sijt@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago

That’s what the bowls are for. To catch any drips.

[-] StealthToad@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

The bowls that look like dog bowls, one having food in it?

[-] freeman@lemmy.pub 2 points 1 year ago

thats just being environmentally conscious.

[-] SomeoneElse@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

I can’t explain it, but all the bidets I’ve seen (mainly continental Europe) have been like this.

[-] Wootz@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

They are usually placed a bit closer, so the move from the toilet to the bidet is just a scooch over.

[-] GONADS125@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I've seen them sparingly in some nice houses and hotels here in the US, but they were never common. But even as a US native, these are what come to mind when I hear the word "bidet." Not the hoses that hook up to toilet bowls.

[-] SomeoneElse@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I’ve never actually seen a hose attachment type irl. Neither are popular in the uk.

[-] Neato@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Yes. It's the old style. Before they had the tech for the under seat ones. Some didn't even have fountains and you'd fill it up and wash your ass with your hands.

[-] Tangent5280@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Why not the hung-on-wall showerhead types? Is this second bowl design more common than the handheld one?

[-] Surreal@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

I still can't figure out how to use the showerhead while sitting. I always stand up. I guess the bidet fits people who likes to sit

[-] lmaydev@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Often used for quickly washing your pits, bits and feet. Not just as an automated ass wiper.

[-] jochem@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Some (most?) Italians will do a bit of wiping and the move over. I guess you can even stand up and then sit on the bidet without wiping, as you'll wash the whole area anyway?

[-] CaptFeather@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Might as well just shit in the bidet

[-] Canadian_Cabinet@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Another use is sometimes you'll wash your genitals without using the toilet

[-] stolid_agnostic@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

That is a REAL bidet from long before anyone ever thought of a toilet hookup. You'll find these throughout Europe and South America. Even the poorest houses have them.

[-] STUPIDVIPGUY@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago

Ok this is a beautiful bathroom. But obviously the armchair is weird as hell.

However what I'm really concerned about is why there are pet food bowls RIGHT BETWEEN the toulet and bidet! Why are they even in the bathroom? Discostang

I was gonna say that the arm chair makes sense to go with the vanity area, but then I noticed that there is an ottoman type seat that nicely sides under the vanity counter.

[-] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The chair is for the Fecaldula.

[-] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I think they're referencing scottish-angry-at-children-for-leaving-shit-in-toilet meme. But I could be wrong.

[-] STUPIDVIPGUY@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You're spot on

When you have a therapy session but you ate too much Chipotle

[-] doppelgangmember@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

More of this shitty content plz

This is wonderful. I was missing badrealtyphotos from Twitter.

[-] sorebuttfromsitting@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

the person in the chair does not have the toilet in their line of sight. this is for tasteful conversation, clearly, or reflection, or therapy. this is not staged, just an elightened rest room.

[-] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The chair is for the Fecaldula.

[-] UnhappyCamper@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I suppose pointing it at the bidet instead of the toilet is more tasteful

[-] Epicurus0319@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

A fancy rug in a bathroom? Imagine if grandma visited and had to use that toilet very badly

Rules

The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World's rules. You can click the link but we've reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn't a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.

1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.

A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn't rulebreaking and we can't be supportive to them then we probably shouldn't engage.

B. No illegal content.

C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.

D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.

E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.

2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

Formatting

Please include this following format in your post:

[link text](/c/community@instance.com)

This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't

You should also include either:

!community@instance.com

or instance.com/c/community

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
