From commercials lately, you’d think people are walking around with waste-smeared underwear – if only they had the right toilet paper.
**Do you feel confident enough to go commando? ** Ah no, I was unable to wipe myself fully and that, and only that, is the reason I wear underwear at all. I need it as that extra final wipe.
It’s so clean I could wear my underpants two days in a row!Not that I would (this from a Charmin bear who isn’t wearing any clothes). **This is for you, Skids! ** Yep, the only reason I launder my underwear is it is covered with urine and poop.
My friends got a potty for their daughter this weekend and it comes with a toilet paper holder…and a spot for flushable wipes! Get 'em started early thinking that TP isn’t enough. :rolleyes:
I don’t see it so much as people buying the wrong toilet paper as people buying the wrong underpants. You know which underpants won’t show off a poorly wiped ass? The brown ones.
Years ago, a workplace after hours social event (okay, it was really just an excuse to drink) conversation turned into a little over-sharing. Are you a folder or a wadder? And then, how many times do you wipe?
The most shy, demure, proper little thing of our group waited until others had shared before throwing out the only possible correct answer.
gigi - I’m sorry to have to break the news to you, but its possible that you’re a clean pooper.
In this thread, Happy Lendervedder discussed his discovery that his 2 1/2 year old daughter is a clean pooper. Against my better judgment, I chimed in with this post in which I discuss my realization that I too am I clean pooper.
Underwear serves a good purpose. I discovered this when I was at work after taking a huge one and flushed the toilet as a “courtesy flush” and the toilet promptly overflowed full of feces and water. I’m not sure how but I moved quick enough that my boxers were drenched but my pants were spotless. When a coworker saw me throwing the boxers in the garbage he just said “I’m not even going to ask” and I had to go commando the rest of the day.
Clean pooper or not, isn’t it possible to still not get poop on your underwear?
Between the Charmin commercials and the Activia commercials I am now convinced that 49% of Americans can’t poop at all and 49% can poop but are running around with poop-smeared undies.
I am finally a 2 percenter - I can poop AND my undies are clean!
I disagree – I think it has more to do with your anatomy. I have been a clean pooper all of my life, and believe me, I have gone through some very ugly diet phases, including times when my diet consisted of about 90% chocolate. I can’t imagine that not having an effect if the issue were diet-related. I’ve eaten some seriously messy, digestion-unfriendly meals, yet except for actual illness, I’ve never had the kind of problems that other people seem to report.
I’m curious to hear if there are any vegetarian/vegan dopers, or dopers who eat a particularly clean diet who still struggle with getting really clean after pooping.
