YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

Alright look, I swear I'm not just trying to be nasty. But poo always seemed to be......greasy.....to me. Shooting water at it seems equivalent to cleaning up oil with plain water - it just moves it around. Am I way off with this line of reasoning?
Change your diet.
I'm already a vegetarian with a few cheat meals occasionally - are you thinking beef and chicken might make my logs less greasy?
No, any high oily diet would do that veggie or not. Vegetarianism doesn't necessarily equal healthy food that's good for your gut, if your stool is genuinely greasy please examine your diet.
Apologies if this came off as attacking you I've just gotten up and could have written my initial comment to be less direct.
Yes you are, it really helps. They can spray quite hard. You will feel 1000% cleaner after.
I can't really say that I've ever felt particularly "unclean" after using just TP. But I might just give this bidet thing a try. Maybe I've been missing out all this time.
Legit, if you have enough fat in your stool for it to feel greasy, that may be steatorrhea, which may be a symptom of some underlying condition.
Or, it could just be too much fat in your diet. Most of the time, that's what it is, just not being well balanced in terms of fats vs fiber and carbs. Surprisingly, vegetarians are more prone to it than meat eaters in my experience, because meat eaters tend to eat their meat with different foods than vegetarians use to keep their protein intake right. So the vegetarians end up not realizing the fats they're taking in.
Varies a good bit though since some meat eaters don't actually eat enough of the other things to keep it balanced out.
Anyway, point is that everything comes down to poo.
Poo is water soluble. It's just stomach juices with the nutrients and water sucked out of it by your intestines.
