Michael Brown Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Hi, Saw that a lot when I was in the middle east for the Gulf War. The only difference is the "receptacle" was oval, porcelain and set into the floor with a footprint on either side. We had to carry our own paper around with us, 'cuz the bathrooms in cafés and gas stations, such as they were, didn't have any - just the ubiquitous hose. There's a reason why, unless you really want to piss someone off, you never touch anyone with your left hand in the middle east. OT - OF!!! M.

DonTx Posted March 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Must suck to be a "South Paw" over there..... ....you're right Mike. Buyer told me that that a Muslim family used to live there. We do a lot of work for Indians and I've never seen such a set up in their homes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bain Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 I didn't even realize it was a vegetable sprayer till I'd stared at it for several seconds. What the heck is it used for? To clean the bowl, or the nether regions following a movement? And how does someone do that without soaking the floor and his or her clothes?

hausdok Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 It's done to clean your bum. As far as not soaking the floor and clothing? Hell, I dunno. I've wondered that every time I've looked at a bidet, but I'll be danged if I'm going to try it. OT - OF!!! M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hausdok Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Uh, Uh, If it was a muslim family it is definitely for the bum. It's a cultural thing. Even out in the sticks they'll carry a water bottle around and won't drink it, 'cuz they need the water to wash after squeegying their bum off with their left hand. At our Camp Nelligan cage in southern Iraq we had to make sure every EPW had an extra bottle of water just for that purpose. In fact, a damn mini-riot broke out one day when one of the platoons didn't supply enough extra water bottles. Kind of kewl, huh? Betch nobody over there bites their nails! ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!!

allspec33351 Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 When I first saw one years ago, it was a cuban family and I asked them directy what it was used for and they said it was for cleaning the bowl. The spray pressure was way to strong for a bun cleaner. Now if you have another gate vavle then it would work. Captain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bain Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Captain, I'm still clueless, but imagine you're someone in that Cuban family. Could you really look another person in the face and say, "Oh, I use that to spray ice-cold water up my a*s after every movement so I have a squeaky clean bum. Of course, it splatters all over the rest of my body and clothes, too, but who cares? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randynavarro Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Bidets are awesome. Gonna put one in the next house I build. Its quite a wonderful experience.

kteitel Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Captain, Actually a gate valve should never be used to regulate flow. It's designed to be either open or closed. Using it to regulate flow could damage the gate. The best valve for regulating flow is a globe valve. Kevin Teitel House-Pro Inspections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
