If you see any Eloi or Morlocks, you know things have gone awry and the crazies won the day.
nah.. not worried about the future. I'll see that coming
probebly quite a lot, dependent on the culture, the greeks and the roman were very big on personal hygene, the french not so much
Would be a cultural thing. I would bet that the Romans were probably pretty clean people, but can't imagine that personal hygiene was overly important during the dark ages. Everything I've ever heard about Japan and China suggests that cleanliness is very important to them. Though interestingly, there was a reference to China in my quick jaunt through the internet saying that soaps weren't introduced there until the modern era, but that they had a form of detergent that has been around for a long time.
Though the French invented the bidet...
Yea, you know it wasn't readily available. I immediately go to the 'wild west'. Simply put, survival was more important than smelling good.
i know, how idle is that?
but hygene and survival are closly liknked, armys have aleays enforced hygene, as its better id they dont all die of dysentery
that right at the tip of the list of thibgs i necer exspected to google
The only Bidet I know of is the poor man's Bidet. That's when you get splash back from dropping a load..ha ha ha.
I'm all for the bidet. Was introduced to them in Saudi Arabia during desert storm. They were ubiquitous. Not all that common in America, though they are becoming a lot more common now, since companies have introduced toilet seat bidets that can be attached to an existing American style toilet. I even saw one for sale at the Costco the other day... and since you won't need TP, the next time we have a pandemic, you can skip the lines trying to buy toilet paper.
Good to know. So, when you refer to someone as a bidet, that's shorthand for anal douche. LOL.

Though once again, this is an area where we're lagging behind the rest of the world. Japan has some killer toilets. The fanciest ones have built in white noise emitters, fragrance emitters, LED lights, heated seats, and warm butt cleaning water. I wouldn't be at all surprised to find one with a massage function.
nah just find some hanging clothes and wipe your butt on that lol
Why didn’t I think of that before?
Seeing it happen in real time is where it’s at. It’s like watching videos of sports from previous eras. It definitely loses something. I’ve seen videos of guys Muhammad Ali, Wilt Chamberlain, Babe Ruth, etc play. There’s no real atmosphere to it like watching something broadcast live. Stuff that I saw live lost something when watching it later on. Tyson vs Douglas for example. Some of that is you know how it’s going to end, but there’s more to it than that.
