Getting nature's call outside the house must be hell...

This is one of the reasons I haven't looked into a bidet more. I'm no stranger to waiting until I can be comfortable taking care of business, but to be dependent on an appliance to do something as fundamental as using the bathroom, seems a bit too far.

Now, if I lived in Japan, somewhere famous for the widespread adoption of high-tech bidets, sure, it makes sense to adapt. But in basically all of America and Western Europe, it's still a luxury that if I adopted it now, I would be much more uncomfortable anytime I need to go to the bathroom away from home.

One of my favorite underpromoted benefits of working from home is that I get to use my own washroom.
