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.



Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Why YSK: It's cleaner, cheaper and more convenient than toilet paper

I'll never understand how people live without a bidet.

[–] PumpedSardines@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I've never used a bidet, are you wet in your ass after leaving the toilet, or do you whipe the water off with toilet paper?

[–] Arcanepotato@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

We have little towels for drying off. They have a bin under the sink for when they are used and they get washed before reuse.

[–] hihusio@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I just drip dry. it's not like your whole ass gets wet

[–] Anonymous0573@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I like to use toilet paper to get the bulk of it, then use wet wipes after.

[–] crilen@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Shouldn't flush those either.

Get a bidet, at worst you waste like $30, at best you will know true comfort.

[–] Anonymous0573@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

You convinced me, I will try it one day when I have $30 to use. (Probably be a while lol) My method works well, but it takes a while. I'd rather use a bidet if it saves time.

[–] fsniper@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

As someone who born to a country where a bidet is the norm and migrated to a country which doesn't have it. We start to use wet wipes and believe me when I say it a bidet is way way way better. So I bought an attachment. Now I can't use any other toilet except that one.

How dare you! Jajajaja. I guess everyone can do it as pleased

[–] Anonymous0573@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol at least I made progress. I was taught to just use toilet paper when I was a kid. Now if I have to do that, I feel so dirty

[–] cocolopez@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I feel quite the opposite. Hear me, if you stick your finger in penut butter and just clean it with paper, you can still taste it if you suck it. But of you wash it with water your truly clean. But didn't want to sound like I was criticizing. Cheers

[–] Anonymous0573@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I agree, I don't feel right if I don't use wipes now.
