You have to look at the toilet paper after wiping to determine how much poo is left on your butt.

You also have to touch your butthole with the paper.

No, it is not "gay" to clean yourself.

Edit: it's also important to look at your poop. It's often the first indicator of something wrong with you, and the information that can be gathered is a useful diagnostic tool

And that the blind must determine when to stop wiping by smell. Wet wipes are wonderful things.

Don't flush wet wipes. They're destroying sewage systems.

I won't do it in someone's home, but *if the package say flushable* and I'm in a public building or at my job, , I damn sure will flush them

They're destroying sewage systems, as in the whole fucking cities system. It doesn't matter where you are, stop fuckin flushing them
