Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

The wikipedia article said that people usually use a small towel that is changed daily.

DAILY? I don't know about you guys, but I use the bathroom more than once a day, and I would not want to reuse the towel. I mean, that's like reusing toilet paper. EWWWWWWWWW.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, I re-use my bath towel, and I do use that to dry my Area, because I'm, you know, clean when I use it. The point of the bidet is to get clean, right?

Yeah--you're only using the towel after you're clean...

Changing the topic 'cause I don't even want to think that hard about bidet habits:

My local bookstore just sent a reminder out about the HP release party and they didn't bcc. Everyone's address is just there. That's annoying, right?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'd use a stronger word than "annoying."

True, but I'm thinking more . . . internally.

My bar for "dry enough" is set significantly lower than my bar for "clean enough."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If you're not clean enough to wipe, keep cleaning.

And with that I hope I'm done thinking about it.

I'm certainly done thinking. I was doing cell phone research at lunch and am all confused now.

Oh people of the future: See what we had to deal with before robotic bum cleaners were invented?
