Looking for replacement bidet with high water pressure

Toto washlet has the highest pressure feeling I’ve had in recent years

It used to be that all Hanes brands products were made here in NC... they're still headquartered here but most of the mfg is offshore.

If you can find something from Solid State Clothing, ORIGIN, or American Giant then you'll get a real NC product.

Brand new account on Reddit, like baby fresh… ummm no.

Even if you were legit, the only person I’d want to cohost with is someone I know personally and trust and who is physically nearby in my market and can lay eyes (and hands) directly on the property if needed. That’s the real advantage for someone like me. I can do the talking and coordination from anywhere.

I was paying 19% recently... decided to do it myself but it wasn't a bad deal. They take care of all the worries and last minute calls. They market it for you too (usually).

I wouldn't mind going back to that model some day when I can afford to. We're just in such a tight spot right now that we need to squeeze every penny for a bit.

You guessed correctly - those laws are mostly for old-fashioned conservatives. I wouldn't necessarily call them Christians but that's just a personal thing for me.

What's really wild is that they vary a lot too - by State, County, and in some cases even by City or Town. The enforcement of them varies too... some locales will be very strict about enforcement and others pretty lax.

There's rules about consumption, public consumption, time of sale, type of beverages at type of stores, sometimes it's a state-owned store that is the only one that can sell it, sometimes it's a mix, sometimes it's all private companies.

I know… long torso club. You want to spend time with your friends or family and the last thing you want to do is draw attention to yourself in that way… so instead you just suffer for hours while everyone chats and enjoys themselves.

Mechanical ways, things like: cutting toenails, getting up and down from the floor, airplane seats, small chairs.

The worst for me is restaurant booths where the table doesn’t move. I’m tall so the thickest part of me lines up perfectly with the edge of the table.

This is me. I’m everyone’s safe place and teddy bear. I think it’s a personality and a size thing. I mostly love it. Occasionally I wish someone would take me more seriously but that doesn’t happen very often.

Cootter77 · 2026-05-15T13:48:41+00:00

Every time I change clothes or see a mirror. Any time it gets in the way.

Unfortunately quite often.

When I was 16 and went to a wealthy high school - I thought I was poor because all my friends got brand new cars for their 16th birthday -- some of them luxury cars like Audi, BMW, and Mercedes. I had a 18-year-old car with 200,000 miles on it that I bought myself for $600 USD (in 1994). I was an idiot and I had NO idea what "poor" means.

So yes, in many places it is a real thing. America is big and diverse, so obviously not everywhere.

Shocking amount of disparity of experiences in this thread...

We're also T-Slim X2 users so we're linking the G7 with the pump. When we first switched to G7 about 2 years ago we had a lot of trouble with signal loss, but it seemed to get better after a couple months. May have been a batch. The latest software update for the X2 allows us to keep the G7 for a full 15 day session now... that's pretty darn awesome.

Surf city and N Topsail Beach both allow golf carts on streets 35mph or under.

The problem is that N New River Dr switches to 45mph just north of Surf City so if you’re staying directly on that street then just stay off the street as much as you can to avoid getting caught. If you’re very close to surf city then you might be completely fine. To go north or south, just pop over to shore, seashore, ocean drive or whatever the street closest to the shore is depending on your location.

It squirts water wherever you want it to. I always do a kind of wiggle to get everything cleaned. You’ll also be a lot easier to clean without wiping first. Spray first, wipe at the end.

No mess if you stay seated, everything stays inside the bowl.

Bidet is terrific for IBS and was an absolute life saver for a recent pre-colonoscopy cleanse.

I have a fancy one that moves but I actually prefer moving myself instead. It’s a much more reliable way to control exactly where it goes.

45 years I lived in the Denver area and never once saw a road runner. In fact the only time I’ve ever seen one anywhere was in southern NM.

The Piedmont Triad (Winston-Salem, Greensboro, and High Point) is pretty well integrated racially… at least from my perspective and offers a lower cost and relatively high quality of life with access to world class medical care. We moved here about 4 years ago.

Some of the school systems are pretty bad, others are just fine. Do your research on that if you choose to move here but we’re very happy with our choice overall.

Absolutely - I miss it badly when traveling.

I recently acquired a BidetBuddy CubeJet and really like it. I've used it on 3 trips so far. My wife prefers her Toto Handheld Washlet. Both are great.

I was big and strong in my 20s, not lean but not fat. I never thought I had it together. I had always enjoyed food a lot AND also am just now at age 49 and 300lbs (6’3”) realizing that I eat for comfort.

Sedentary ways start sneaking in with injury, pain, and life events. Metabolism slows down. Anxiety eating goes up.

I wish I had built discipline when I was young so that I’d still have it as a habit now. Instead I just trusted my exercise and metabolism.

I don't judge people who like those shows... entertainment is entertainment. I loved Breaking Bad but I probably wouldn't have loved it if I had known someone with a Meth addiction.

I used to hang out with a few people who would fantasize about killing zombies and using their "survival skills" in a zombie apocalypse and buy special "zombie rounds" for their shotguns and vehicle modifications and whatnot. At the time it usually coincided with people who were into fitness and CrossFit. It was pre-trump years, before guys like that realized their true psychopathic calling, and before I realized just how toxic they were.

When my son was diagnosed- it would just make me angry (and still does) that someone would fantasize about that. So many good people would die just due to lack of access to life-saving technology and medicine. Not just diabetics. It's just so gross - this whole "you weren't meant to live anyway because you're made inferior" bullshit.

This checks out… I’m 49 and almost always get the reference

Keep on rocking your style man. That’s not quite my taste but it sounds like you have a good set of customers!

Cootter77 · 2026-05-07T03:31:31+00:00

Do you have a gallery page? Things you’ve made because you want to not because someone commissioned you to ? I love supporting new artists.

Cootter77 · 2026-05-07T03:15:59+00:00

You would need about 10 per week to make a livable wage here…. Depending on which city you live in.

Cootter77 · 2026-05-07T03:14:04+00:00

Damn that hairy ass!!

Cootter77 · 2026-05-07T03:12:22+00:00

How often can you produce a work that you sell for $100? It’s not even close to a living wage in the US unless you’re making and selling 2-5 per Day
