JRA Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Well I guess I may have to finally learn to use the sprayer thingy in my bathroom since Tops is out of everything I seem to walk over to buy after my massage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMSteve Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Definitely need to test the "power" of the spray before use. You may end up with an unexpected enima. You have been warned! BTW, my understanding was that you spray then wipe/dry, not one or the other. Am I incorrect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellodolly Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Thursday went in to tops no TP or Pepsi Max second choice Coke Zero gone also. Friday went into Rimping by the river, steel bridge they were just stocking the TP shelves they even had some Coke Zero. No Pepsi Max or Coke Zero at Makro super highway today.

TheWalkingMan Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Steps as follows: 1 - Check the power. No sense in getting a self-inflicted enema. 2 - Spray 3 - Wipe, check and if not spotless go back to 2 4 - Pull up boxers and pants... or just pants if "commando" Relax!

Johpa Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Far more civilized to use the dipper in an adjacent oong naamand use your left hand than to randomly spray your fecal matter about with a device that was originally intended to be used as a douche for women to clean their front side.

MrBrad Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) Most people in Thailand will not even notice the paper shortage. Only 25-30 percent of the world's population uses toilet paper. Why not join the masses? Using water is much cleaner, and healthier besides. Say, for the sake of argument, that you happened to get some body waste on your fingers or elsewhere on your body. Most people would not be satisfied with simply wiping the shit off their fingers and getting on with their day. I know that I would prefer water, and likewise prefer water after crapping. No paper needed, and it's liberating. Toilet paper is best used on the dining room table in place of napkins.

jonwilly Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I all but have a heart attack if I have to wipe post dump. Been using a Power Wash for more years then I can remember.

sfokevin Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) I have totally taken to the sprayer method!... Including a totally green post airdry after a good powerful spray I actually like a powerful spray... With a little aim practice and muscle group training you can get a really achieve a deep clean technic... But do test an unfamiliar sprayer's power before going to it!... Now when I find myself at a paper only option stall I never feel clean afterwords... More like smearing things around to me now... I have not gone totally native - And have yet to master the crouching ladle maneuver... Edited October 30, 2011 by sfokevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orang37 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Rubber gloves in the shower during post-defecatory soap-cleaning of relevant area. Then wash and clean rubber gloves, while still on hands, with anti-bacterial soap. Then remove rubber-gloves. Use shower spray to hose down ceramic shower floor. Last step: hose off washed feet.

muchogra Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 It took me decades to get used to using the water spray. Yes, like some have said press it gently and don't miss aim at.the balls, that would really hurt! And another thing, toilets in some Isaan people's homes have no tissue papers.

Rama Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I've asked several small shops about their supplies. They've all said no problem, takes a little longer now because the route from bkk is several 100s of kms longer. But they don't relay on large distribution centers, but smaller suppliers, so their logistics chain is still working. Go and look at a smaller shop, they'll have. First came to India when I came to Asia. There's no paper there outside the big cities. Takes about a month to get over the mental block of cleaning yourself with your left hand, but after that, no problem. It's actually much cleaner. Water runs continuously, you'll learn how to clean by doing. Hand is not dirty as water runs all the time. Wash your hands after, much cleaner. I can't imagine going back to paper.........

CMSteve Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 i'm getting more and more confused. Wash with the sprayer, left hand, smear with paper, dry with paper, drip dry, blower seat, rubber gloves... I think I'll stick with gentle sprayer, and dry with paper.... best of luck to the rest of ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may need rubber gloves of varying thicknesses, but I suggest that in no case should they be transparent, or translucent. But, I do think that, as the great spiritual master Yogi Berra said: "Ninety percent of this game is half-mental," and the really important thing is to keep your mind fixed steadily on the goal, which is not mere excretion, but the sublime state of mint-freshy-all-over ! best, ~o:37; Edited October 31, 2011 by orang37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grease proof paper that became the toilet paper of choice for councils in the UK? Not only did it lacerate your sphincter, it also had a tendency to split mid wipe, resulting in a smear of feces across your fingers. And to top it all off, it didn't bloody work anyway! I'm happy with the wash and air dry method, no tissue needed. But any of you worried about lack of toilet paper, loads about, just avoid the major chains/franchises.
