            Young kids often get them because little kids are filthy they then give them to parents. Even if your kid is clean they play with kids who aren’t.

        That’s what I thought too, until a bunch of angry parents chased me out of the park claiming their kids drink out of there.

        Who lets their kids drink from a bidet?!

          Actually insane. Whenever my friends come over, they always ask why I have a “water fountain” – whatever that is – installed in my bathroom. I point to the faucet in the kitchen and ask ‘em what they think that is. They aren’t too bright, sometimes.

          I don’t let my kids drink from public fountains, either. You know that episode of Parks and Rec where the Pawneans drink from fountains by putting the whole fountain spout in their mouths? I’ve seen that happen. I’ve also seen kids wipes their snot-dripping noses and the touch the spout. I’m glad it’s available, but it’s a last resort.

        Even wipes are better (just don’t flush them, no such thing as flushable wipes, that is a lie they put on the box).

              I usually poop once a day and like to shower once a day, I try and line these events up. Bidet is a life saver though for when I’m not running on schedule

                  No, I put them in a dishwasher where they are cleaned with boiling hot water and a mixture of bleach, hydroxides, sodium carbonate and sodium silicate. Is that relevant to what I do to my ass?

                Let’s put it this way. TP is okay because it dissolves in water.

                Wet wipes are wet. Just get a bidet. Bidet + TP is cheaper AND better than wet wipes anyway, while being basically the same thing.

                Not really, anecdotal evidence would be “I used to flush flushable wipes and my toiled got clogged”. Which wouldn’t be entirely worthless, but even assuming good faith it could have been a coincidence, so not worth a whole lot either.

                Quoting a plumber, who’d be qualified on the subject, is an argument of authority. It’s a bit more reliable as long as you recognize the authority of plumbers over all things plumbing. There’s also room for error through misquoting, and of course like for all arguments, it could be a plain lie. But

                1. This statement seems simple enough to not be easily misquoted.
                2. The stakes of this conversation are pretty low, so unless we’re dealing with a compulsive liar, there’s not much point in lying.

                I’d give this a solid 76% reliable. If I had some wipes I intended to flush, after reading that I’d probably look for more sources online to confirm before I do.

                  It’s anecdotal because some rando on the internet is saying it. They didn’t quote a plumber, they said some plumbers they talked to said a thing. That’s worthless.

                Expert advice is perfectly relevant but if you prefer you can soak a clean wipe in a bucket and some clean tp in another.

                You will shortly prove to yourself why you don’t flush wipes

    “jup” can either be “yup” or “hup” depending on which language you’re coming from. It’s definitely a fun spelling of the work though

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss
  3. GPrime85

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)
