What's the best way to dry your bumcrack after showering or taking a bath?
Toilet paper leaves clags behind and no matter how thoroughly I wash it seems to be up to chance whether or not they'll come back a little bit brown, so I don't want to use a towel and risk leaving brown stains on it.
Simply not drying it is no good, it leaves you feeling squelchy all day.
>>5198 I've got two fans from Maplin. I put them on to full blast, with one blowing me from behind and the other in front. I'm dry in a few seconds and I get the pleasant sensation of wind rushing around my gentleman garden. It also has the side effect of cooling my room in this beastly heat.
You could get a separate towel for your crack, then you don't have to worry about your main towel getting brown.
But lad, if your arse is still dirty straight out of the shower, you're doing something very wrong. I'm not saying you're not washing it, maybe you should be eating more fibre.
Just arrange your morning routine so you can wander around in the buff after showering enough for those last swampy bits to air-dry. I have my breakfast stark bollock naked sat on the bar stool in my kitchen.
The fuck did you buy them there for? I'm sure the other ex-Maploids around here can corroborate how shoddy and overpriced pretty much every single thing they sell is, unless they have seriously upped their game in the year or so since I've worked there.
>>5203 Yeah the stuff is overpriced but it's almost exactly next door from where I live, and I've found it easy to get refunds for stuff when necessary. I was just really desperate to not spend another night without the fans because last night was awful.
I normally use the old hairdryer, I blow dry the hair on my head, then follow suit with my legs, groin, and arse. It seems to work quite well, provided it's not on the highest heat setting.
RS offer free next day delivery on everything in stock; Maplin only offer free 3-5 day delivery on orders over £10, and charge you £5.99 for next day.
I have absolutely no idea how Maplin are still in business. You'd have to be absolutely deranged to pay their prices for components. Even in a dire emergency, I'd be inclined to order from RS and stump up for same day delivery rather than going down to Maplin. At least I wouldn't have to deal with the semi-sentient trolls that Maplin camouflage as human beings and call "Sales Advisors".
Amazingly, yes. They used to charge for delivery on orders under £20, but they abandoned that a couple of months ago. I assume they decided that taking the occasional loss on postage is a worthwhile marketing expense.
Only britfa.gs could go from skidmarks on towels to the minutiae of electronic component procurement in the space of ten posts. Never change, lads.
>>5198 Blummin' heck lad, if you wipe your arse with a towel straight out of the shower and find a brown stain, you should regard that as a harsh lesson, not a 'reasonable risk'.
To be fair it's only in recent years they've truly gone downhill- the post recession years haven't been kind to them and there have been several management changeovers. Rest assured they won't still be in business for too much longer if they keep doing things the way they were doing when I was still there, though.
Fact is though, you don't get staff who are "experts" for minimum wage. You don't deliver good customer service by making them run a shop that would still struggle under twice as many staff. You don't get stock that can be called anything like worthwhile by buying exclusively from a single Chinese manufacturer who are apparently too cheap for even eBay scammers to trust. You don't get a reputation as a decent shop by reliably charging at least 10% more than any local competition.
The components and niche electronics have been getting slowly phased out of the business model over the last ten years or so, and I am frankly baffled as to what the execs think they're going to have left once it's all gone. It's as though they literally think they can do b byusiness being a shittier, more expensive version of Curries.
Still, at least they've stopped pushing the shitty screwdrivers and batteries on people at the tillpoint.
The brown towel is the least of your problems, I bet you fucking stink. Sort your arse out lad. Moist toilet tissues are the best if you're having some sort of problem.
I was going to make a thread about something similar and then saw this.
My arse stinks. I shower every day, etc. but whenver I go to bed, even if I haven't shat, I can smell my arse, it's fucking disgusting. Taken to giving it a right seeing to IYKWIM in the shower.
>>5223 I have previously worked as a care assistant in a nursing home, a gastro ward and a stroke rehabilitation facility. I have showered, washed, and wiped hundreds of arses. There is something seriously wrong with your arse (or perhaps your washing technique), mate.
I didn't say it happened often, just occasionally enough that I didn't want to risk getting shit on my towel. Even if it didn't happen ever, I'd not want my towel in there.
