Have you considered growing longer arms?

Have you considered manning up a little (in a completely gender neutral way).

Alternatively, use a shower umbrella.

How fucking massive is your shower that you can't simply reach into it and grab the handle?

The door is opposite to the actual unit

Aim the shower at the wall, turn it on, get out

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago

Turn it on in the sink, then it may only take like a second in the shower (if you're lucky with your plumbing layout)

Some people have a cabin in the woods. This guy has a cabin in his shower.

I never heard that before, either, but I suspected it was a British term and it looks like it is.

Why would I be inside the shower before the hot water shows up

I turn on the shower at maximum hot, undress, THEN introduce cold back to a comfy temperature and step inside.

Sometimes I take my pants off before my shoes...we are not all the same

Pro tip:

Always max hot water (or hot water only if separate) to warm up shower fastest and save water. It's a win win.

Turning it 3/4 or something to desired temperature takes longer to heat up and wastes both hot and cold water.

The photo is somewhat deceptive. It's actually angled away from vertical slightly. He's resting on the wall behind him.

I used to only have cold water up until a month ago and I'd get confused when those cold shower body builder trent went online but yeah now that i'm getting used to it i can see the difference.

Edit : To avoid confusion i used to live in a place with noderate climate and only recently moved .

[–] jaybone 3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

In Iceland, it depends on the volcanos.

When you build toilet on the side of a cliff so that you can have privy ledges

Why wait even? Cold water is still water.
