Are you guys talking about the bidets they have in Europe that are separate from the toilet and have their own water connection?

nah, I'm talking about ones you can attach to your existing toliet with no fancy tools and cost less than $100

I believe outside of perhaps some poster we know nothing about with 150 lifetime posts, I’m actually the youngest person regularly posting on here by several years.

but are you spry?

Also, I bought a bidet a while back and it's the best decision I've made in a long time.

I'll have to check my receipts but fairly certain mine was like $39.99

now you are talking space's language
I bet we can find one on the secondary market for under $20

I, personally, am talking about $12k robot toilets from Japan.

Adjusted to this community? Oh hell yeah. You guys would be amazed how flexible I am.

i went to turkey a couple of years ago - where all the toilets have built in bidets - and it converted me to a fan (def weird to use at first) - so much that I installed one in my home…..i wish all toilets had them in the US, its a life changer.

My make and model… unlikely space would be allowed to buy this.

It's only called "cold turkey" when you stop something entirely.  When you start something, that's called "hot turkey"

FIELD REPORT: it really wasn't that bad.  pills for the win - if your doc gives you the jug ("GoLytely"), tell them you want to pay for the pills option (bisacodyl) out of pocket.  based on what i've read, it's very much worth it.  you still need to drink a powder (which contains the same thing as the jug, but minus the awful tasting electrolytes) mixed with gatorade, but it just tastes like gatorade.  the cleansing was fine - nothing explosive, nothing out of control, just the need to sit on the pot about a dozen times.  the toughest part was being hungry - i ate nothing between dinner wednesday night and noon friday.  soda, juice and low-sodium chicken broth weren't cutting it.  jules, i appreciate the sympathy-cleans.

the procedure itself was a breeze - and trippy: i got to experience both teleportation and time travel!  one second i'm in the procedure room being hooked up to monitors and being asked to roll on to my left side; the next moment i woke up in the recovery room.  it was instantaneous, like thanos snapped his fingers.  woke up a bit droozy, grabbed some food on the way home (carnitas @ chipotle, t'was divine), had a nap once i got home, and then back to the routine.

TL;DR: it was NBD.  insist on the pills.  do not put it off.

I’m guessing you wouldn’t have buried the lede if so buttttttttttt: no cancer?

I don't suppose the Drs were out having a smoke when you woke up

Chipotle FTW

Playing the hits, I see.

Seems like eating Chipotle after blowing your ass out for 24 hrs is counter productive.

doc said everything looked good!  one polyp was removed and sent to the lab, results will determine if i need to go back in 1-2 years or 8-10 years.

they may be lowering the age to get screenings….
