When Wiping Part Two! Wad or Fold?(now w/ bonus joke)
 

Although I was in the crushing majority in Wiping Part One as a sitting wiper, I think I'll lose this one. Alas, I am a folder. And yes, I do wash my hands very well afterwards even on the drunken ocassions when I've wadded.

Also, for you fancy pantses, I'll include the old bidet.

(See third post for joke.)


**edit** Don't forget to vote in wiping part one!

You seem to be a little TOO interested in our bathroom habits, dude. Seek help. :)

I seeked it and they told me I was healthy, as long as I keep this in nonsense, I'm okay. Noticed you didn't vote. Am I to assume you use your bare hand?

Quick Joke:

A bear is taking a shit in the forest and a little bunny hops up. The bear says to the bunny, "Hey there little bunny, does shit ever stick to your fir?" "Why no, mister bear, never," the bunny replies. So the bear picks up the bunny and wipes with him.

Wad. Sure, it wastes some paper, but I find it gaves the maximum paper barrier.

Whenever I get a home however it will have a bidet. I don't understand why these haven't cought on more - I mean, PAPER?!?! How do people think that's sanitary? *shakes head*

I tried to get my parents to get a pseudo-bidet when they redid our bathroom - a little thing in the toilet that acts like a bidet - but they thought I was crazy - plus it was expensive.

It must run in the family though, this got brought up at a family gathering that I wanted them to get a bidet and it turns out one of my uncle's has his body down to a rhythm so that he does "#2" around the same time every day and it's at a time when he can shower right afterwards. Another uses water and WASHES rather than wipes.

Again, how do people think WIPING with PAPER is sanitary??? I just don't get it.

Hey SecretMethod70:
I have only used a bidet once, but it does get you the cleanest. I secretly loved it, that doesn't make me gay right?

sorry, yes...yes it does.

It makes you VERY gay.

Fold for triple thickness.

Do nut assume. It makes an ass out of u, m, and a donut (the e is silent) ;)

Damn, now I'll have to give up my gorgeous girlfriend. Fuck!

Not going to lie, I fold. Three sheets folded in half does the trick. Of course (not to get too graphic), if you know things are...worse...adjust accordingly, but for the stardard I do that.

Yes, folders are winning! I am so relieved to be a part of the sitting folder majority. I need more votes though for a good poll. So... *bump* oh, excuse me, did I do that?

Fold -- all the way.

I Wad, mostly out of laziness

Wadding, for more scrubbing action.

That's it, I'm out. I fold.

I fold... uses less paper, and is less... abrasive... that way.

Yes, but do you all wipe front to back or back to front?

Wait don't answer that, I am learning more about TFPers than I have ever cared to know.

What the heck is this? An oragami class?

Wad it up, wipe and get on with life.

Fold.
I was once on the crapper at my girlfriend's mother's place, and ran out of toilet paper before I was, uh, done. With no spare roll in sight, I actually unpeeled the cardboard roll and used that.
Just like McGyver would've done, I imagine.

I remember hearing that Howard Stern used to be so "anal" about his ass that he would carry baby wipes with him to the bathroom. Then after using TP, he would use a single wipe and check it for evidence. He would keep wiping/checking until nothing remained, then once more for good measure. Unfortunately for him, he developed an "anal fissure" (look it up), and had to relax a little.

How's that for too much information? :)

people who fold it all carefully are just too obsessive compulsive to me :)

My theory is that you do whatever your parents taught you to do as a tyke. Looks now like it's 50/50 so I think everybody can feel secure in their wiping habits.

need more votes....
*bump*

What can I say, I like precision...therefore I'm a folder.

fold......wipe........fold again.......wipe again.......wad......flush

Usually Wad, but i also encircle the hand with TP, more of a wrap if you will.

I wad. Also, I'm curious about the bidet method... after the water hits your ass, does it stay wet or do you THEN use TP to blot and dry?

i used to wad when i was a kid, but then i found out it's easier if you fold.

I wad it...But I would love to have a Bidet, because I am such a clean freak....A Friend of mine does and it is awesome...

Why give respect to shit?
Wad that sucker up.;)

I can't even imagine not folding....

Ewww....

Next topic please ;)

Fold. Wadding just seems to spear it all over me bum. Must be my technique ;)

okay...insert left thumb into toilet paper tube.
grasp outer layer of "charmen"with index,middle,ring and pinky fingers.
hold firmly...
grab 1st "ticket" with right hand and in a forward motion..complete "3" revolutions around your left hand holding the roll.
tear "ticket" at nearest perforation and wipe away.

one more for folders

fold.

No one has a bidet? I would use one. I still want to know how you dry off afterwards though. Do you use toilet paper or a towel? Is soap used?

Stand and Wad

I don't think I've even seen a bidet
