haha. my buddy asked us how we wiped our ass after he saw a tik tok about it.
2/6 of our group scrunches the toilet paper up and wipes, the rest of us folds the toilet paper neatly and wipes.

My mind was blown.

Yah ...not sure why anyone would go out to have hotpot. Just for the social aspect. Expensive as hell. Must be easiest restaurant to operate.

Regardless, there is a RESP limit ...you can just go max contribution, no? But if you do go max, you are right, kid will he driving an MB to UBC.

Meeting with relatives in person inside their homes (pre-Covid) or what wifey and I did during the start of Lunar New Year. We wore masks like our relatives and exchanged gifts with them just outside of my home.

-heard some neighbourhoods lighting up firecrackers last night.

SkinnyPupp, correct if I am wrong about the duration of CNY holidays in HK.
People get public holidays with a week off from work in HK now?

Stores and businesses in HK close for a couple of days then re open on the fifth day of the first lunar month?

Stat holidays for 3 days, many larger stores only close one day, or stay open the whole time (my wife's dog shelter is open 365 days a year so she's been at work). Many smaller stores stay closed even longer. I went to get groceries on day 1 and it was a ghost town, so nice!

Neighbors set off fireworks every morning around 7am, and a few times throughout each day. Lion dance comes through the village on day 3 I think?

China shuts down for like 2 weeks, I went there during CNY and it was pretty incredible how dead it was in comparison to normal days. Not with covid though

Lifetime account limit for RESP is $50,000.
The government gives you a 20% grant from your deposits up to $500 grant money per year and $7200 in grant money lifetime. Which means you can deposit only $2500 per year to get the $500 grant.
But, you can still deposit more than $2500 per year, but every dollar after the $2500 amount will not receive the 20% grant.


According to my calculations.
If I contribute $2500 per year to my son's RESP and get a least a 10% return (average return of the S&P 500), my son will have approximately $144,373.52 in his RESP account when he turns 18.

So definitely enough to buy a Benzo, but I hope my son will be smart enough and buy a Toyota instead.

whitev70r 02-02-2022 07:29 PM

^ an EV Toyota.

I like Cilantro... but I scrunch up TP, 2 squares to be exact. It makes it like a "brush" head and I wipe once. Then get more TP and repeat as necessary.

I don't understand how folding it works. How many layers?
As the folded TP is laid on top of your fingers, do you lift up the middle finger a bit so that the finger can guide the TP to reach in between the ass crack? I find this more uncomfortable, like I'm literally using my finger and reaching in.

I also heard some people would also fold it again after the first wipe and wipe again with the same TP before getting more. But I assume you'll do that only if you take more than 2 squares at a time.

Genuinely curious. I never did it any other way than scrunch up.

whitev70r 02-03-2022 07:15 AM

^ should have an RS poll. Truly fascinating ... disgusting but interesting. Appreciate the mechanics of the scrunch method.

So honest question for the scrunchers ... since it is in a scrunched up in a ball, don't you have a high possibility of getting shit all over your right hand?

How did Lunar New Year thread tangent to this?

SkinnyPupp 02-03-2022 07:30 AM

Anyone here stand up to wipe their ass? Rogan mentioned it on his podcast back in the day and I got into an argument with him about it on his forum LUL

I think it's weird to stand up like a toddler getting their ass wiped by mom. He said it's weird to stick your hand down there next to poop (well flush first obviously). Also the way I picture it, your ass cheeks close up when standing, so like.. yeah weird

But if everyone says they stand to wipe, I guess I'm the weirdo

GGnoRE 02-03-2022 07:54 AM

There's no way in my mind that using a scrunched up toilet paper does a cleaner job of cleaning up residue. The goal is to wipe off the residue while minimizing the spread to the surrounding. If you are creating a "brush head" that's definitely an inferior tool to a flat cloth. When I'm brushing something like a scrubbing a toilet I am definitely not concerned about minimizing spread. And in the case where the poo leaves little residue, if you have a square-shape folded toilet paper, you can fold over in half and still be able to use it one more time. With a scrunched up ball there's no way.

If you spill ketchup on the table, do you scrunch up a paper towel into a ball and dab it until its gone or do you take a flat paper towel and do a clean swipe?

whitev70r 02-03-2022 08:47 AM

This is getting good ... THIS is what forums are for.

ssjGoku69 02-03-2022 09:02 AM

wtf are you guys on about, the scrunched up ball is the way. After your first wipe, you just rotate the ball of tissue around and wipe with the clean side. If a little gets on your hands, no biggie, you're gonna wash your hands anyway

68style 02-03-2022 09:31 AM

This is easily the shittiest thread on RS

Saw this topic come up on reddit and tiktok recently, makes absolutely no sense how ppl stand to wipe, tiktok had a lil video representation where they're not standing fully erect, but still wtf

Also, flush first? Wtf how far in are you sticking your hand down? U wiping the bowl n not ur butt? :pokerface:lol

whitev70r 02-03-2022 09:36 AM

Flush first is to get the stank out of the air while you finish your business ... I think. Just the small option flush will do cuz the bigger flush is with the TP.

Hondaracer 02-03-2022 09:57 AM

Lolol

Come on ya ain’t gettin no leverage by wiping sitting down!

When I say standing it’s not like completely board flat upright, still kinda bent over

EvoFire 02-03-2022 10:35 AM

Where does the bidet talk fall into this?

Gumby 02-03-2022 10:36 AM

Flush first? Well you just sent a spray of shit particles all over your butt…

white rocket 02-03-2022 10:55 AM

Let's just bring this in here for reference.



Wad or super wad depending on the severity. Sitting down wipe for sure. Plenty of leverage available. Sometimes a tp island in the bowl is needed to prevent splashing if the velocity is going to be heavy. Flush after the business but before you wipe. Outhouse poops are more of a stand/lean/wipe-type of scenario.

Forget the origami crane, do the origami tiger for this new lunar year.
Ferocious wipes.

I use three to four squares to wipe (depending on the ply). I guess I use my fingers to guide it, though i'm not fingering my asshole, lol. I never fold it and re-use the same one though. but I've heard of people who do this.
