I would also add on that, unless you REALLY rocked that toilet, every poo becomes a single flush. Rather than potentially needing to double flush to avoid clogging it

While you're shopping for a bidet also shop for an Australian toilet. The half flush saves a lot more water too but the proper s-bend makes everything a single flush even if you rocked it hard.

and by rocked it I mean you filled it with mercury for some reason

One of those is a bathroom remodel and the other is twenty minutes with a wrench in a rental

What's this now? There are a number of US toilets that have the dual flush feature, but what's this about a modified S bend?

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

Literally no other countries have problems with toilets clogging. It's not a modified S, it's a normal one

I may or may not have looked up gullible in the dictionary when I was younger

That's my secret, I've got a 50 year old toilet with a five gallon tank. There's nothing this bad boy can't take down.
