Angkor Wat pre-Butt Blaster knowledge 🛕

     Rewind to 2010, and I'd just left the USA for an unknown 🔮 future in Southeast Asia. I was much more concerned with job prospects, finding spicy Ital food and affordable accommodation than butt health. I'm gonna try and not get too scientific in this post, and just be as real as possible. If you want to read scholarly articles about colon cancer rates, the benefits of a squat toilet, bidet sprayer and more, you can easily google that stuff.

     I definitely saw the notorious butt blaster 🔫 on my first night in SE Asia, while staying in Thailand. I didn't think much of it, and had toilet paper at the time anyways. I only spent one night in Thailand before having a realization I needed to go to Cambodia instead, but that's another story. The point is, I would eventually be properly introduced to the bum gun in Cambodia.


Typical Cambodian bathroom sight 🚽🔫

     I can't say I remember the first time I was toilet-paperless in Cambodia, but it happened within days. To be not too graphic, I had already finished my business 💼 without noticing the guesthouse hadn't provided any toilet paper in my room. I was determined to solve the problem solo, so I grabbed the ole' butt blaster.


A good invention, but BEWARE of the all-plastic model 🏃🙀🌊🍑🔫


     I was hesitant at first, having already been victimized by a bidet in France 🗼 and some Japanese 🤖 technology on an airplane. At first, I first thought about sneaking the gun in from the backside, but a plethora of possible negative outcomes overwhelmed me. I settled on jamming it in between my legs upside down and angling for success. The only bad outcome was the accidental enema 😲 I received as a result of a cheap gun, stiff hose and high water pressure.

A luxury bum-gun with finesse trigger 🚿

     This first experience was with a gun exactly like the one in the toilet photo above. The all-plastic models basically operate at full-throttle via pressure-washer jetstream 💣👀 or not even a drop. I learned if you spend $10 on one, you get a trigger that you can finesse and a less violent water stream.

     It's a skill easily mastered, and you can air-dry 🌬️ if you have a few minutes and no toilet paper. After nearly 10 years living in Cambodia using the bum gun, we love life in Suriname, but we miss our butt-blaster dearly. @Sreypov considers western toilet culture downright disgusting 🤢🙅‍♀️.

🌎 (𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐄𝐒𝐓) 🍑🧻😧🏕️👎

🌏 (𝐒𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐓 𝐀𝐒𝐈𝐀) 🍑🔫🧻🐱👍

     As you can see in my mathematical emoji calculations, butt plus teepee equals an unhappy camper. In the southeast Asian example, we have the most ideal conditions; a butt-blast followed by a light dab if teepee is available, resulting ultimately in the "cat's meow."

🚀🤖 𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐔𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 🍑🔫

     There's really not much more to steem about this subject now, other than as far as 💩 goes, a good chunk of Southeast Asia is living in the future. It's a shame Cambodians are now starting to abandon squat toilets in favor of western-style sitting toilets.

     The sitting toilet is now merely a vain status symbol of the west displayed in a Cambodian house to wow visitors. I guess it's much like the psyche behind owning an SUV in the suburbs of the USA. I think Cambodians especially don't know the science behind how much healthier squatting is when doing the deuce. Anal fissures are going to spread like a plague in Camboida.


Om Chan Sakana 👨🏽‍🚀🚀 - Cambodian astronaut time-traveler from the year 3,165 sent to teach future poop tech to primitive western cultures


     So here we are in Suriname, South America and/or the Caribbean, surrounded by Latin America, but locally mostly ethnically Asian people, adapting to a European way of life. Nowhere in this mishmash of cultures is there one bum gun, and it's really hard to fathom. The butt-blaster is also one of the first things I miss when I visit the USA too.


This is what's wrong with our culture 🚫

     An awkward conversation with our landlord is long overdue, but it's a necessity for us. All we need is installation permission 🏗️, and to find a bum gun or subsitute a dish blaster sink accessory.

     In conclusion I shall you leave with no science 🧪 at all, but a simple brainstorming exercise if you're still not convinced. "If you had poop on your arm, what methodology would you implement to remedy the situation? Would you immediately look for a piece of paper and wipe it off, calling it quits after that?"

     If you would wipe poop off your arm with a piece of paper and consider that adequate, congratulations, you are a psychopath. And one more added bonus is that unlike a bidet and the Japanese auto-bidet, you are the one in control with the Cambodian Butt-Blaster 2000 🔫. DIY is so much nicer than having it done to you (IDY !?); it totally removes the victimization. If you're rational, you'd likely implement an aqua-based solution, perhaps even soap. I can't come up with any better sales pitch than this, so I'll call it quits here.

We are SOOOO behind here in the US when it comes to .. toilets. TOILETS of all things! 😂

Thanks for the hilarious reminder that I need to get a damn bidet attachment, yesterday.

No problem!! I listen to a lot of American podcasts, and I always hear ads for "Tushy," I think it's called. I've never seen one, but I understand it's a bum-gum to mount on an existing western toilet without modifying anything. I think it clamps on the side of the toilet.

This was a fun read with the best use of emojis imaginable ( says a 37 year old who still tries to get used to those things )!

You just made me realize that, back in the year 1999, on a high school Rome trip, I encountered a butt blaster in a toilet. I went for a number 1 ( at least that's what I remember ) on the camping's toilet, then pressed a handle to flush the toilet and the water splashed all over me from what seemed to be a shower hose attached to the toilet. It took me a while to stop it, I probably had to laugh.

Afterwards, I drew the conclusion that the hose was used to flush the toilet with ( after a number 2 ). Now I realize it was what you call a a butt blaster or bum gun.
It's 20 years ago and I can't remember if the toilet was flushing too or if I just used the bu gun to do the trick. There was probably another handle for the flushing, haha.

I guess I learnt something new today ;>)

     Well, I hadn't ever used an emoji before my STEEM journey. They make me feel young, hip and relevant. I was in France on a school trip in 2001, and basically did the exact same thing you did, by the way. And also, like you, I can't remember exactly how the setup was different than SE Asia. All I know is it was not as user-friendly.

ha, LOVE it! and it's how I feel too, except I'm not squirting my but....

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

Top to bottom it is the best !
Who controls the squirt wins I always say..

Thanks @haikubot for appropriately weighing in on this one.

Almost fell out of my chair when I saw this.

Haha, not the toilet? Be honest!

I did a poo pistol post many moons ago myself.

Back when I was skatmatters..

touché my friend

Best post I've read all day! Hilarious, but also makes you second guess how some of our "habits" came into being in the first place. I think one of the worst things here in the US is seeing the signs in restaurant bathrooms saying employees must wash their hands before returning to work. Like really, is that even an option not to??

I'm calling over my pal @dandays because I think he'll get a kick out of this one!

I don’t know if it was the enema, the traveling, the sprayer itself, or just flat out poop butt but whatever the reason, I sure am glad you think about me on these things, Plants, cuz that ish was funny!

Ok, now I gotta respond to dude.

All of the above. ;) I just had a feeling you would appreciate it, so didn't want to keep this gem all to myself.

Thank you very much @plantstoplanks. It’s just too taboo of a subject to talk about I think. I’ve tried and western friends generally say “gross,” and the conversation is done before it starts.

Oh I talk about poo a good bit as it really is a big indicator of your overall health! 😂 We all do it, so kind of silly that it seems so taboo. Of course I reserve the right to laugh like a child about it, too, but at least I won't shut down the conversation before it begins, haha.

@justinparke I enjoyed and laughed a lot reading your anecdotes of your gun butt blaster jajaj.
Good job friend.

Some people say there are some in Central and South America, but we have lived in Ecuador and Suriname and haven't seen one yet.

OH MY GOD, you are HILARIOUS!!!! Love it so much. I love the little cartoon of Sakana.

I seriously DON'T know why we don't have them here, and I'm definitely going to hassle hubs to instal the one we bought last time we were in Indo. I miss feeling so squeaky clean 'down there' - plus, the extra spray of water on my bits is damn delightful.

THIS IS YOUR HUSBAND AFTER 1st BUTT-BLASTER USAGE

Ahahahaha!!!

Awesome use of emojis. LOL.

They're a few $$$ to buy online, ship anywhere in the world and take a few hours to install. Yup - the western toilet 'thing' is gross.

So much violent spraying in your post left me bewildered. Even the cheapie plastic ones have an adjustable valve at the wall entry to soothe and make it a very much more pleasurable experience.

So many bathrooms in Cambodia only have a shutoff or water control valve out by the street. I once slipped and fell in my bathroom and pulled the sink off the wall on my way down. It caused water to shoot out of the hole in the wall left by the broken pvc pipe, so I had to sit with my finger in the hole to prevent my room from flooding until my wife got home, about 30 minutes, with a bloody head.

As far as mail goes, I only received 2 out 10 packages sent to me in Cambodia. I hear Thailand has a reliable postal system though. In Cambodia I didn't need to have one shipped though, because they are part of daily life. I tried to receive one package here in Suriname through the postal system, and it never arrived. UPS successfully delivered a few sheets of paper from the USA at an outrageous rate. Once we have landlord approval, I think we will install a local dish blaster sink accessory, and that'll get the job done.

🤣🤣🤣
OMFGs this had me in stitches.

"It's funny because it's true...!"

When I was in Japan earlier this year, I got to experience the 'robotic toilets'. We were in Kyoto, and our apartment had a really swanky automatic toilet that you could control the temperature of the water, and even had a drying feature.

The first time I gave it a go I started laughing and giggling so hard, everyone was checking in to see if I was OK.

As you can see, the brand is called TOTO... I can't hear the song Africa without thinking of that moment....

Yep, I've been victimized by that very technology. At least Japan is tackling the issue. I gladly delegate STEEM Power but will never delegate my butt-spraying to a machine. I shall be in control.
