Bill, Congrats on the new home and on introducing “discardist” and “discardism” to my vocabulary .
25 years ago we moved into a newly built apartment in Tokyo, equipped with three state-of-the-art bidets. Adjacent to the seat was something resembling an iPad mini, for controls. Water had adjustments for; volume, pressure, temperature and angle/placement of the nozzle. Also included was the, aforementioned, auto-open feature and adjustable lighting. Our girls would give demo’s to all that would watch ….. hours of entertainment . The only feature I embraced (hows that for imagery ) was the heater, which had several setting and a timer. Great feature.
The script is in development as we speak, Melvin. Yes, there are a few rentals in that total - you win - your average occupancy rate is 2.67 years, whereas mine is 3.64 years- congratulations!
How many clickers in your new home? Does your toaster have a clicker? Does the bidet have a clicker? I'm sure that there is a YouTube video that will explain all.
One advantage to the toilet/bidet we installed to our master a few years ago is that the automatic opening lid scares our rescue dog away from the trash can that he used to like to dumpster dive in.
Love this one Bill - we just spent 4 days cleaning out a friend's parents' house where they'd lived since 1974. Two 30 cubit foot dumpsters and it's still not done! Your wife is a genius!
This is not a novel take by any means but the bidet will change your life, and it sounds like yours might even do heated water if it's powered. Try it for a week, you'll never look back.

Now it’s Charmin and American Standard.
Man, that's good theater, Mike - I'm sorry I missed the matinee performance. . .
Sounds like you have a plot for a movie: "Dr. Evil and the Remote Bidet."
Does 11th home include rentals? If so, we're on our ninth after 24 years.

I blame our immigration status for that. It forced us to move around a little more than we would have liked to (all the way to Canada and back!).

There are some things that I believe should not be performed remotely: toast and bidet activities fall in that category.

Dogs fear technology as much as I do - beautiful!

Thanks, Kelly - my wife is definitely a devoted practitioner of “discardism.”
The Japanese made theirs seem so enjoyable. There's music too. Try it, the bidet is not that scary. It's your gentle monster friend. 😁😁😁
You make it sound quite welcoming - I may give it a try.
my nemesis is the shape of toilet seat
It does seem to require contortionist skills.

I might summon the courage someday to road-test it - you may be right, Paul.
Yet another well written piece of art that brought a smile to my face … thank you!
Thanks, Kevin - I appreciate it.
