The Backup

"Was gonna say the same. I explain to people that once you use one, you'll feel like a peasent when you wipe your a** with TP."

For Multi-Use

"Baby wipes. Damn, they are good at cleaning up so many things! The kids are 10 and 15 now and we still buy them by the case. Clean the counters, clean your shoes, get stains out of your clothes, bring them with you when you go eat ribs. Better than a napkin. Clean the table. Clean the desk. Clean the island. Wipe up the spill."

I have to agree about bidets being a life-changing discovery.

Ever since I was a kid going to visit my relatives in Japan and noticing virtually every toilet having a built-in spray 'n wash button, I was like, "Why doesn't America have these wondrous devices installed in every toilet?"

Not only is it super satisfying, it saves trees.
