User name checks out...?
It sure does pal 😎
Poop Juice, I’m glad you recognized, and seized the opportunity to secure a proper username while they were ripe for the picking. I salute you.
Also, this guy showers.
Midday after working outside and getting really dirty or sweaty, when it's still bright enough outside that you don't have to turn the lights on and the bathroom is only lit from the window, you're already so hot from working that the water has to start out lukewarm, and also you have a shower beer. My favorite kind.
And when you first get in, the water is noticeably warmer by the time it hits your feet because you're so warm. When your feet start getting the cool water, then and only then are you done.
Damn. You've really elegantly explained one of my favourite things. It's winter where I am, so I'm doing the 'more than one during the day just to warm up, temperature equal to surface of the sun' showers. Can't wait for the midday beer shower. So many months away.
Lights totally off, rocking back and forth, crying shower.
They already said normal shower.
Sitting down with hands over ears and water hitting head, contemplating the meaning of life.
This is my every morning shower for no less than 15 minutes. Somehow I come out ready for the day.
Shower outside at a beach house to clean off sand
My dad actually installed a hot water line to the backyard garden hose at my childhood home to make it less uncomfortable to hose the kids down when we got home from the beach.
Lots more!
Gym shower. Dorm shower. Truck stop shower. Campground shower. Pool shower.
ahh... the true shower thoughts have arrived
Grower not a Shower
Cold shower for humid hot days, only to walk back out and get sweaty again
That happened to me when visiting Miami!
Pretty stressful if you’re a dinosaur
Camping shower. In a field with a swimming costume on, pouring a few cups of warm water over yourself.
The "I just went to check the mail" shower in Florida in the summer.
Meteor.
Those showers at the beach to get sand off ya (relieving)
Light rain storms (comforting)
Golden showers (disgusting)
A cold one.
We must stay focused brothers... we must stay focused.
Hung over shower (cleansing)
The panicked whirlwind shower when you slept through your alarm and are now super late
The steaming hot sick shower, when you are in the midst of a cold/flu and you just stand there with the water turned as hot as it will go, while you try to clear your poor sinuses.
It can help to drape a washcloth over the bridge of your nose to help keep the heat concentrated there longer.
Hostel shower (This'll do)
Shower at your parents or grandparents house, almost as good as home but not quite.
Showers with beer on vacation (decadent)
Standing/sitting rock still with water pelting your head waiting/hoping to feel something shower
quick daily shower just to get the sweat off luxurious spa shower where you do a face and hair mask, shave, contemplate, scrub every inch of your body, etc.
After-Poop Shower (comforting^2) Having Sex Shower (dreamy)
Caravan park shower (very refreshing but sometimes awkward)
