Here in OZ the wiping is directly determined by the variety of toilet paper available at the time.

Government issue paper found in public toilets is made from reject newsprint and has the texture of varnished tissue paper, glossy and fragile. wiping is to be done with great care.

Service stations usually supply strips of used wet and dry sandpaper from paint and panel shops.This makes you wonder is wiping is an option worth taking at the time, if dark might be less painfull to drag your butt across the grass outside.

Shopping centre toilets generally provide real nice soft and high tensile paper in postage stamps sizes, you need hands as steady as a brain surgeon to handle this.

or the budget rolls you find in guest toilets in houses you stay at , best take your own!

Police: Man killed over toilet paper

Tuesday, February 21, 2006; Posted: 2:17 p.m. EST (19:17 GMT)

MOSS BLUFF, Florida (AP) -- A man accused of fatally beating his roommate with hammers because there was no toilet paper in their home has been arrested, police said.

Franklin Paul Crow, 56, was charged Monday with homicide in the death of Kenneth Matthews, 58, according to the Marion County Sheriff's Office.

Capt. Thomas Bibb said Crow initially denied his involvement, but confessed during questioning. (Watch how an 11-year-old helped get the confession -- 1:30)

Crow told investigators that the men were fighting about the toilet paper over the weekend when Matthews pulled out a rifle. Crow said he then began beating Matthews with the sledgehammer and claw hammer, according to an affidavit.

Matthews was beaten so badly he had to be identified through his fingerprints, detectives said.

Crow was being held at the Marion County jail without bond. It was not immediately known whether he had an attorney.

Used to do front to back, until I had my infection/surgery, tried back to front but it would take me 15 minutes or more to get "immaculately clean" (as the hospital discharge papers ordered). Side to side seems to work best, but I think when the wound finally closes (from surgery # 4, more than 1 1/2 years ago) I'll take a big stinky dump and wipe front to back for the first time in my adult life.

Actually, I've somehow managed to synchronize my rhythm so I usually end up going right before I take my shower, during which I scrub the area with a washcloth (a cheap white one, separate from the one I use for everything else and purchased expressly for the purpose).

[Hey, I'm not the one who started a thread asking how people wipe.]
