I always feel like the hands-free bidet is sneaking up on me, I prefer the control and manual aim/pressure of the gun.
lol I’m stealing ‘bum gun’. Just installed one last week and can’t believe what I’ve missed out on my entire life.
you’re welcome to it.
I’ve been calling them toilet guns for years, and then someone on the internet said bum gun, and it’s too good not to use.
“…can’t believe what I’ve missed out on my entire life.”
exactly how I felt when I first used a bidet.
like “why did everyone teach me to use my hand and paper for this rather than a hygienic, elegant solution?”
I’ve heard bum gun from Thai folks but I’m guessing some Australian came up with that? Sounds like something they would say. I don’t even know what the Thai word is or the literal translation.
I’ve been there a dozen times and also have no idea what the Thai word is, so here:
“In the Thai language, a bum gun is referred to as: săai chèet cham-rá (สายฉีดชำระ), hŭa-chèet (หัวฉีด), or thêe chèet dtòot (ที่ฉีดตูด)”
hm. sounds like they don’t know either.
I found this language learning site that more sounds like they know what they’re talking about:
“Bum Gun ที่ฉีดก้น Têe Chèet Gôn”
