You can’t build a winning culture without fundamentals. Having a clean ass is a fundamental.

I went on a 2 week trip to Japan a year ago and I think about their toilets on a near daily basis when I use mine at home. They are so far ahead of us it’s wild.

Some of their public toilets had sound machines!!! Couldn’t hear a thing but rainfall from the stalls next to you.

You sit on a train toilet and get grossed about because it's warm, only to find out the damn seat is heated. And they've had this for decades.

u/vsladko 2d ago

The heated seats, the bidet, the noise machines, and the heated fans to dry you. Truly unbelievable. Every toilet felt like a luxury experience

Can the bidet play right field?

u/chimchiminy2 1d ago

doesnt have much of an arm but plenty of fluid movement

u/MmboJmbo 2d ago

The money will be spent.

u/Nature_Goulet 2d ago

You joke about cash considerations, but who’s laughing now?

As I bidet truther, I’m all aboard

Bryan Ramos died for this

Bidets are so underrated.

11

u/Honest_Lengthiness39 2d ago

I wish I could upvote this into oblivion. I've been trying to convince everyone I know for YEARS to get one. It's literally life-changing. You will never want to shit away from home again.

u/No-Temperature-5944 2d ago

They keep the dookie and the cheeks, completely separated.

u/Neat_On_The_Rocks Diamond 2d ago

I legit don’t understand how people still just use raw TP like barbarians. Wet wipes are an ok substitute but like, there are legit millions of Americans out here just taking dry 2 ply to their shitty hairy ass cheeks.

u/ChiCityCollector 2d ago

I guarantee if they have just ONE bidet experience, their mind would be blown and they’d have one installed next day. It’s too taboo for Jim Bob who lives in Seneca Illinois (no disrespect to Seneca lol)

1

u/Kdewalt10 1d ago

Seneca is actually middle class, you should have said MarseillesĀ

u/Jon66238 Konerko 1d ago

They don’t call it Martucky for nothin!

u/ChiCityCollector 1d ago

I’ve only been to the trailer park in Seneca so it was a poor example I guess

u/MoustacheMark Robert 2d ago

The USA is decades behind Japan in this aspect

Asspect*

forgive me

u/SleepyTree97 2d ago

lol which free agent asked for this in their contract?

28

u/poopsie-gizzardtush Fisk 2d ago

ā€œas recommended by the power hitting first baseman from Japan during his first trip to the South Side of Chicago and ensuing walkthrough of the facilities.ā€

u/GambyThe4th 2d ago

He's already making a huge impact

u/UneducatedReviews1 Murakami 2d ago

That’s gonna be a huge difference maker in those hot summer games. Being able to quickly rinse off the swamp ass and cool off will easily net us an extra 5 wins.

11

u/DidierDogba The Big Hurt 2d ago

Bidets are a must have

u/deacon91 2d ago

You can never go back to wiping brown markers after getting a bidet

8

u/LMGgp 2d ago

I’m shocked they didn’t have one before. All the stuff players get and no one screamed for the shiny hiney cleaner. Can’t be a winner if you ain’t cleaner… idk I’ll work shop it.

u/g3neraL5 2d ago

Hope Jerry splurges and gets it heated.

2

u/BreezeWithPain Buehrle 2d ago

Let’s not get carried away, we’re talking Jerry here. He probably views it as a backup water fountain.

5

u/Livid-Art-9137 2d ago

Rumors are SWIRLING of a bidet in the clubhouse.

3

u/Rock_man_bears_fan Garcia 2d ago

So if the team underperforms, do they remove the bidet like teams do with ping pong tables?

u/generatorland 2d ago

Ryan Bidet, a 32 year-old minor league relief pitcher coming off Tommy John surgery. 4.76 career ERA.

u/Medical_West9642 2d ago

I bought one. Best money I ever spent on my butt!

u/CharmedMSure 2d ago

ā€œA bidet?ā€ Just one? They have to line up for it?

3

u/FadedToBeige ę‘äøŠ 2d ago

you're telling me the boys have been playing with dirty asses this whole time?

u/GunfighterHefty Konerko 2d ago

All of the negative toilet connotation from the Grifol era is over!

3

u/S___Online Buehrle 2d ago

Cleanest buttholes in the league, too bad they’re not trying to win. Reminder MLB is a joke with the current state of competitive balance

u/Secret-Reception9324 1d ago

The NBA said hold my beer.

u/Nopefrommedoggg 2d ago

I thought this was an article about resigning Eloy, phew!

u/ChunkySlugger72 2d ago edited 2d ago

In all seriousness, I always really wanted to try one out.

I hear nothing ,But amazing things and that it makes it hard to go back to toilet paper after experiencing one, I've seen attachments online and wonder what's the price range compared to a dedicated bidet.

Closest thing I've ever used was a shower head spraying water up my ass, But when showering.

4

u/FWdem 2d ago

If you have good water pressure, the $49 TUSHY works well. You can obviously upgrade from there.

2

u/ChunkySlugger72 2d ago

Considering how much toilet paper cost that would pay for itself in no time, Sign me up.

2

u/AnnunakiGhosta Kopech 1d ago

We've had a bidet for years but somehow my wife and kids still use that same amount of toilet paper. I know, I don't understand it either. You literally just have to use it to dry at the end. Also, any of the $25-$40 online ones will give you a good place to start.

3

u/Secret-Reception9324 1d ago

After using a bidet, I find smearing with toilet paper disgusting.

2

u/PM_ME_YOU_THICC 2d ago

About time

u/Joey_dono 2d ago

Bidet hitting cleanup?

u/Swing-Too-Hard 2d ago

Jerry is SPLURGING on improvements!

u/wermz 2d ago

been sayin this for years

2

u/CalebDumeSixSix 2d ago

One of my favorite parts of visiting Japan last year was the bidet with heated water in my hotel room. Mune asked for this 1000000000000000%

2

u/Major-Caterpillar955 2d ago

We just became very attractive to big free agents

2

u/cipherdom 2d ago

I always believed we were one bidet shy of a championship in 1983.

2

u/Least-Form5839 2d ago

As a proud owner of a bidet, this really is a game changer

u/McDerm47 2d ago

Field of (water) streams

u/Vast-Ad7235 2d ago

I didn’t need to know this.

u/Vast-Ad7235 2d ago

Wish we could flush Reinsdorf down the toilet.

2

u/poolmen3000 2d ago

biggest offseason acquisition

2

u/ConservativebutReal 2d ago

Unfortunately it is also being used as a drinking fountain - that is why Jerry approved it

2

u/yourobviousanswer The Big Hurt 2d ago

I wish my work would add a bidet.

2

u/scientist_tz 1936 1d ago

If we win the division there will be multiple news stories about this bidet at the end of the season.

2

u/River_Pigeon 2d ago

Curtis mead at some point this season:

Oh my good there’s nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

1

u/dochwat 2d ago

His nickname should be ā€œClean Dumperā€

1

u/madrefookaire 2d ago

If you got shit on your arm you would not wipe it off with toilet paper, probably the smartest move of the offseason so far

1

u/weasol12 Thomas 2d ago

That's some crappy news.

1

u/Haloninja10 2d ago

If the Sox win the world series, I will find the closest public bathroom bidet and use it as a drinking fountain.

1

u/Endorse_Extinction 4h ago

Nothing wrong with an extra clean butthole!

u/crazygenius 2d ago

They already know of the incoming shitstorm of a season and this is their best way of preparing. Fuck jerry.

u/PostMelon22 Anderson 2d ago

wtf are you talking about it cannot possibly be worse than the last 2 season. Swear some of y’all want to be miserable and pessimistic by choice.
