Damn when your bladder is full and you piss like a horse it's useless. Overflow and wet hands...guaranteed. LOL. You're not 5 years old? Empty most of your bladder first>stop>start again to fill cup. Many urine samples need to be midstream. Anyway, most older gentlemen don't piss like horses and are more than happy with any stream at all. 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko45k Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) More accustomed to finding those rectangles of tissue these days. Undersized yes, but hold together better than loo roll. I am embarrassed I got drawn into this topic. Edited March 31 by jacko45k 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed it in 2 restaurants / coffee shops in Sydney last year. Back in Thailand, 99% of toilets have a bum spray which is far more efficient / hygienic compared to toilet paper which just smears any residual faeces across the anal area and doesn't remove it all. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 I got used to it very quickly, as it is practical and cost-effective. The only differences between toilet paper, and the more expensive paper serviettes, paper towels, and Kleenex tissues, are in appearance and packaging. The process used to make the paper which goes into the various products is the same, there is no difference in the level of hygiene. White paper is produced by bleaching wood pulp with chlorine, sulphite or peroxide, any bacteria or viruses are destroyed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gandtee Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 When I was a kid we didn't have tissue paper. We had lavatory paper. Cut up newspapers hanging on a string. Not much use on the dining table though.😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One has to use half the roll to effectively clean fingers & mouth, lips. I'm in the habit of taking a couple of pieces of kitchen paper towel, folded in pocket, when I go out to dine.

JimTripper Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 What's the problem? That's for wiping your arse in the lavatory, not a napkin. They just put it on the table so each customer has their own roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirineou Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 When we go to a restaurant, I actually bring a few sheets of paper towels from my kitchen. Those thin napkins they have at restaurants are useless, to anyone near my splash zone, me being the nearest one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SammyJ Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 14 hours ago, HauptmannUK said: Toilet paper everywhere but in the toilet.. Wow, if this bothers you about living in Thailand, then you are in store for some real upsets. You don't understand that Thais, for the overwhelming majority, do not use "toilet paper", but their "bum sprays" and what you see is not considered "toilet" anything, but only paper tissue, to be used to clean like paper towels, etc--and the rolls, for some restaurants, are cheaper and easier to use than supplying bundles of paper napkins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nausea Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Thais use toilet rolls the same way we use tissues. A bit of a cultural shift for Western newcomers, I guess. It just doesn't have the connotation with bum wiping that we have. Once you get used to the bum gun it all makes perfect sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimothai Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 I quit eating at these food troughs a long time ago. If this is what they think is acceptable for customers, I question what is acceptable for the kitchen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Presnock Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Well the "bum gun" and paper wipe is much more sanitary than that of the west that uses paper only. The toilet paper on the table is much cheaper for them to use than paper towels. I for one, am of the opinion that sanitation in this regard is much better here but that is just me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
