It takes a lot of water and energy to make toilet paper. Well, a lot more than turning on my bidet for 10 seconds.

I would also add on that, unless you REALLY rocked that toilet, every poo becomes a single flush. Rather than potentially needing to double flush to avoid clogging it

While you're shopping for a bidet also shop for an Australian toilet. The half flush saves a lot more water too but the proper s-bend makes everything a single flush even if you rocked it hard.

and by rocked it I mean you filled it with mercury for some reason

One of those is a bathroom remodel and the other is twenty minutes with a wrench in a rental

What's this now? There are a number of US toilets that have the dual flush feature, but what's this about a modified S bend?

Literally no other countries have problems with toilets clogging. It's not a modified S, it's a normal one

I may or may not have looked up gullible in the dictionary when I was younger

Ahh, that's an interesting angle I hadn't considered. I wonder if there's a way to quantify the water savings this way, like a volume of water per TP roll or something. I feel like that could be a solid selling point to get more people interested in buying one.

I was curious a while ago and researched a little. Bidets are the environmental champ for butt cleaning.

Ten seconds? I think Mother Nature can understand if you wanna live it up a little bit more you know?

I spray my ass with the force of a thousand tsunamis—10 seconds is more than enough.

Hahaha well then what better experience can you have with an ebb and flow like that? That's beyond living it up, and more like riding the storm 😆
