Yup, all my navy buddies told me how they routinely take ships out off of coronado, go out the exact mileage to where it is legal, and they just dump away. He said they would wake up at night from the noises of sh** falling off the back s of the ships. He said they would throw desks, papers, furniture, old engine equipment. He just said they would load a ship up with every peice of large debris or waste that the navy had lying around on the west coast, and take it out and just push it off the back of the ship... If the US navy, 2011 still does this as a normal practice, imagine what everyone else around the globe does.... You can dump sh** off as soon as you get out far enough.
i believe the reason we use wet wipes on baby's asses is not because of hygiene but more because of their sensitive baby skin and the fact that when they wear diapers all day there is piss and shieet sloshing around in their diapers which irritates their skin. once kids are old enough to wipe their own ass, we switchem over to tp. usually about age 2 or 3
miller lite did you see the newest miller lite commercial? a surferman carrying baby wipes walks up to a bar and orders a light beer. the smokin hot waitress asks if he would prefer more taste or less taste at which he shrugs and says it doesnt matter. She then replies that when he grows up enough to wipe his ass with tp, to come back and she'll give him a miller lite
Baby wipes will clog your toilets. We went on a road trip in a rented motor home a few years ago. The gauge said FULL for the SHI#TER so we had it pumped out at a truck stop. The guy left the screw on cover hanging on the chain not put back on. We were going down I-95 at about 75 mph when everyone started blowing their horns. I look out the back window and a black Benz and a couple of other cars were covered in brown baby wipes and turds with their wipers on. Here the pipe was blocked and no matter how you drained it or pumped it - it never was empty - till now. That crap was blowing out all over the place. Really funny now only pretty funny then. Who ever rented it before us must have used a ton of wipes.
The standard issue roll of TP in my milk crate of surf stuff in the back of the rig, as well as the secret stash on the boat, are both being replaced with baby wipes. Man alive. You never know what you'll stumble upon in the forum.
don't waste your money. Baby wipes are expensive and not environmentally friendly since they're soaked in chemicals and are packaged in heavy duty plastic (very little of that actually gets recycled). Anyway, if you're at the beach, why do you need a perfumed butthole?...when 1/8 inch away it's still "unclean" (well, just because you use baby wipes doesn't mean you got all of it). You're full of digested food, get over it.
My ass is REALLY hairy (as is the rest of me; they don't call me the 'Surfin Sasquatch' for nothin). Flush-able wipes are a mainstay in the Chavez household. And the kids just LOVE them!
I've developed what I call is "The Dabber". I don't use baby wipes cause they're inconvenient. So I do one of two things. When I'm home, I take my TP and run it QUICKLY under the running water in the sink. You can't get your TP too wet or it will fall apart as you wipe. Then with the wet TP, you have to do a 'dabbing' type action to clean up down there. If you do a full on wipe, the TP will fall apart and produce some crazy dingleberrys. You just dab and repeat til the paper is clean. When in a public restroom, I'll get a number of paper towels from the dispenser, wad them up and soak them in the sink. Squeeze a bit of water out and place on top of the TP dispenser in the stall. Once you drop the dook, you use the soaked paper towels as a source of moisture for your TP. You have to be more judicious with this method since there's a limited source of moisture. When you're done, throw the wet paper towels in the trash - don't try to flush them. When you're done, you can dry yourself with a regular TP wipe down if you don't like the wet feeling... Someone already mentioned it, but it seems crazy to me that not EVERYONE does this. Imagine sticking your hand in mud. Then use a dry paper towel to clean up. Everyone would rather at least use a wet paper towel. You'll get much cleaner. I haven't had an itchy butthole ever since developing this 'dabber' technique. Plus, it doesn't cost any extra money.
If you use baby wipes or any other wipes, even the "flushable" type, consider yourself partly responsible for our surface waters being as polluted as they are. These wipes are a huge strain on a sewer system. They bind with other solids and have been found directly responsible for thousands of individual sewer spills. The "flushable" type are just that. Flushable. Sure they'll go down the drain, but will remain intact for months. Get your head out of you a**. Everything flows downhill. Think beyond what is directly in front of you.
