Not really, anecdotal evidence would be “I used to flush flushable wipes and my toiled got clogged”. Which wouldn’t be entirely worthless, but even assuming good faith it could have been a coincidence, so not worth a whole lot either.
Quoting a plumber, who’d be qualified on the subject, is an argument of authority. It’s a bit more reliable as long as you recognize the authority of plumbers over all things plumbing. There’s also room for error through misquoting, and of course like for all arguments, it could be a plain lie. But
This statement seems simple enough to not be easily misquoted.
The stakes of this conversation are pretty low, so unless we’re dealing with a compulsive liar, there’s not much point in lying.
I’d give this a solid 76% reliable. If I had some wipes I intended to flush, after reading that I’d probably look for more sources online to confirm before I do.
It’s anecdotal because some rando on the internet is saying it. They didn’t quote a plumber, they said some plumbers they talked to said a thing. That’s worthless.
Relaying professional advice doesn’t really make it my advice, but you have a good day. Have fun arguing with strangers on the Internet, I’m gonna go have some fun.
You never mentioned anything about a professional in your first comment… so no you weren’t sharing professional advice, you were providing your quite uneducated opinion. Sounds like you just didn’t like that you were told wrong by someone and are now lying to safe face.
People are so strange.
I wasn’t arguing, I was providing advice just like you were, you really are a hypocrite and can’t see the irony here can you…? You turned it into an argument after, I can provide proof that they’re sceptic safe, but most people have sewer systems and it’s not gonna be easy to explain the difference to people with your attitude.
If you don’t have a sceptic system, of course thee advice YOU receive will be for your sewer system. A plumber isn’t gonna confuse the average home owner by explaining, that yes, there is actually some systems where you can. They just tell you the blanket rule. But then you go and perpetuate that information, without knowing it’s not a gospel rule.
So no, it’s not a lie, it’s for people with sceptic systems so they know THEY can use them, they aren’t for you lmfao.
I usually poop once a day and like to shower once a day, I try and line these events up. Bidet is a life saver though for when I’m not running on schedule
No, I put them in a dishwasher where they are cleaned with boiling hot water and a mixture of bleach, hydroxides, sodium carbonate and sodium silicate. Is that relevant to what I do to my ass?
it’s wild how people are adamant that they should live like fucking cavemen. you know if you washed your asses you would have invaded other countries and justified it with “these animals don’t even wash their asses”.
Even wipes are better (just don’t flush them, no such thing as flushable wipes, that is a lie they put on the box).
…where do you put the wipes of you don’t flush them
If you say the trash can I am going to vomit
Rinse them off and put them back for the next person? You don’t throw out your washcloths and towels after one use, do you?
Where do you think diapers go?
Flush them of course am I gonna listen to some stranger on the internet or… the box?
Some are septic safe while they don’t really break down in a sewer. It’s buyer beware, know your shit, literally.
Every plumber I’ve spoken with said that “flushable” wipes are 100% bullshit and to never flush them.
This is called anecdotal evidence, and is veridically worthless.
Expert advice is perfectly relevant but if you prefer you can soak a clean wipe in a bucket and some clean tp in another.
You will shortly prove to yourself why you don’t flush wipes
Let’s put it this way. TP is okay because it dissolves in water.
Wet wipes are wet. Just get a bidet. Bidet + TP is cheaper AND better than wet wipes anyway, while being basically the same thing.
I’m not putting clean drinking water up my ass unless I’m gonna drink it later
you need brawndo

Kinda funny how you’re only applying that logic to that one specific comment.
You would know if you had a sceptic system, people with sceptic systems are safe to use them.
It’s not a blanket rule dude.
Yeah I’m gonna go ahead with the multiple professionals who have advised against it over some random person on the Internet, thanks!
Says the random person on the internet giving advise themself? Lmfao. The irony.
Relaying professional advice doesn’t really make it my advice, but you have a good day. Have fun arguing with strangers on the Internet, I’m gonna go have some fun.

So no, it’s not a lie, it’s for people with sceptic systems so they know THEY can use them, they aren’t for you lmfao.
It’s septic tank not sceptic. I try not to be a dick but you wrote it so many times.

if they’re not flushable then I assume they’re not very environmentally friendly either
You don’t need a bidet or wipes, just shower regularly
You going to take a full on shower every time you shit? The best option is a bidet if you ask me.
I usually poop once a day and like to shower once a day, I try and line these events up. Bidet is a life saver though for when I’m not running on schedule
They’re pretty big shits
no just use toilet paper like everyone does and shower regularly
Here we go again.
But TP sucks at cleaning your butthole

Well… have you tried inviting your friends and neighbors?
yeah and when you do dishes you just wipe the plates with a dry paper towel
No, I put them in a dishwasher where they are cleaned with boiling hot water and a mixture of bleach, hydroxides, sodium carbonate and sodium silicate. Is that relevant to what I do to my ass?
yes
I do reuse a plate all day though.
and you throw away your asshole?
I mean in between washing. I’m not picky about breakfast toast crumbs on my lunch plate. Maybe I should be, but that’s probably not my worst habit
you should be more picky about shit crumbs on your asshole.
that would suffice if I’m gonna put them in a shower later
it’s wild how people are adamant that they should live like fucking cavemen. you know if you washed your asses you would have invaded other countries and justified it with “these animals don’t even wash their asses”.
what?
wash your nasty ass
