An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

The Japanese toilet uses wash sprayers to act like a bidet. Takes up less room. For some reason, Americans like dirty asses.

I know bidets and Japanese toilets but the image shown is the latter and not a bidet that's why I'm curious if that definition is a US thing or something, I like learning.

The image shown most definitely contains a bidet.

It's a washlet bidet, which attaches either underneath the toilet seat or as part of the toilet seat itself, and usually has controls that jut out to the right of the seat(to the right from the perspective of the seated person).

The toilet in this picture has a washlet bidet installed.

This is separate from the kind of bidets that are installed separately from the toilet, as is common in many other countries.

I think removing the need to move the dirty bottom from one hole to another is a key innovation.
