Friendly reminder, wiping your arse with dry paper is not sufficient to clean it following a dump run.
A bidet (european style) is best.
no itchy/smelly bumhole ever again
- Bidet crew checking in.
  Mines got hot water. I don't mean that it's got a pipe for hot water, and you have to wait forever for it to warm up. I mean it's got a water heater built in. And a heated seat. And a hot air blower.. dryer? Butt hair dryer? It's nice, especially in the winter.
  Clean your butts, people
  
  I've got a cheaper, tap-cold only version (mainly because that's the easiest to install without running new plumbing or electrical in that particular location). Honestly the cold water isn't so bad. It can even numb things up if you've been dehydrated and launched a particularly stressful cannonball.
  
  Having tried simple bidets in both warm, cold, and neutral-ish climates, I find that cold water bidets seem to stiffen the poo bits and make it hard to actually get them off your butt esp since they stick to the hairs. You and I might be talking about different levels of cold, though.
  
  A cold Bidet booty blast in the morning will wake you up better than a cup of coffee.
  
  So you know that ice cold water sprayed into your ass can give you brain freeze, right?
- A shower with soap is best, preferably after a different method. But whatever it's your house, you can shit direct to shower if you like.
  If you got poop on you anywhere else. Dry wiping it would not be sufficient. Rinsing it off and patting it dry would not be sufficient. You would wash with soap.
  That said, I have a bidet I use some of the time and plain old TP the rest of the time.
  
  yup, i sit on the edge of the batch and get it with warm water and shower gel usually
- For some reason I am offended that you used a / between itchy and smelly implying that it will be both.
  
  if there is poo left there, it will be both
  
  It absolutely can be both
- I use a portable bidet. It is a rubber squeeze bottle. I use it to wash my asshole and a little toilet paper to dry.
  The thing paid for itself many times over in toilet paper saved.
  
  I like the idea of a bidet anywhere I go, as I feel like a literal disgusting caveman when I can't use one.
  But I feel like a portable one used in a public restroom would make me want to deep clean it every time I use it, and you kind of can't in public. Also what's it like to sneak it into a restroom discretely?
  
  It is literally a small bottle with a folding spigot thingie. I do clean mine with soap and water every once in a while, but it is kinda hard to get dirty.
- A proper diet would also help. Failing that, I just take a shower right after, as you put it, a dump run.
