This is probably borderline-OCD, but I just can't stand when magasines are spread all over the table when in waiting-rooms etc. I always have to organise them into a nice and even pile.
I have never seen an actual bidet, but have had problems imagining how one could possibly improve cleanliness.
Maybe I do. Anyways, I don't care if you don't like it. I'm going to keep doing it anyways. What are you going to do about it? Nothing, that's what!
I switch hands. Europeans are way old fashioned. They need to lighten up and stop being such stuffy little fussy pants! Seriously though, I find that kind of stuff nothing but snobby and silly. As long as you don't eat like a pig, you have table manners.
When I was in France on leave one time, I watched two French dudes eat wings with a fork and knife. It brings the word "shame" to a whole new level.
Imagine what they must be thinking when we get wings sauce all over our faces and are licking our fingers!
"Ewww. American's are so gross. No wonder they are all so big!" *Walks his 5'10, 120 pound skinny ass to the cafe for some tea*
Just throw wings at them and say "how do you like me now?" Oh wait, wouldn't want to waste the wings!
You want beef lad? Come at me, m8! Come at me! We don't want your fatty, yankee-doodle food anyways. ...How do you like dem wings!?!
Yeah, the Europeans have it over us on this. It's funny in a way because the French can be less than squeaky clean in other areas. Toilet paper just smears.
Considering where the water is coming from, I still can't see how the water itself wouldn't harbor bacteria.
I think baby wipes would be more efficient than a bidet. However, I did use one after I gave birth to one of my sons at the hospital, and it felt GREAT!
