No, its not that I hate taking showers I hate taking the time to find and be able to take a shower. Seriously, you have to take a shower EVERY ****ING DAY! Tbh, I don't though, I take a shower every other day. Its too ****ing hard to be consistant with it.

Brushing my teeth isn't hard, I simply do it when I wake up and take my morning piss. To take a shower, you have to pick out clothes, every ****ing time. You have to find the time so it doesn't interrupt you're schedule. But I haven't listed the thing I hate most about showers.

Taking the shower is all fine and dandy and it actually feels pretty good too, its enjoyable. BUT WHY IN THE **** IS IT SO **** HARD TO GET OUT ONCE YOU'RE DONE?!

Seriously...I don't understand it, once I'm done with my shower, I slouch down and I WANT to get out, dry up, put my clothes on and GTFO but I can't. I'm usually slouched down for 20 minutes to over an hour. Its hard as **** to get out and I have no ****ing clue why.

I don't feel like having to get out of the shower every ****ing day which is why I don't. Hell, I DON'T make showering part of my daily schedule as it I do it usually every other day.

And then people complain about me smelling? Goddammit! Is there anyway to take a permanent shower or at least be able to not have to take a shower for 1-2 weeks and still maintain a decent smell.


Getting out of the shower is a ****ing chore and I'm tired of doing it 3-5 times a week. Worse yet, its expected EVERY ****ING DAY!

Wake up 15 minutes earlier every day to smell clean and not have greasy hair.

EDIT: Take cold showers, you'll be happy to get out of the shower then.
There's people in Africa who would love to shower daily, *******, take the oppurtunity FOR THEM.

lol I actually know the feeling, liking a shower. It's placid, serene, peaceful. No worries, no stress. Hell, sometimes I SIT in the shower and just ponder some idea for my book. It's so relaxing.

I can't say that I agree with it being a hassle though. Waking up in the first place is the problem. And I would take a shower everyday if I were you. haha It's kinda expected. After a single day personally, my hair gets greasy. I make sure to keep clean.

Also, taking a shower during the night is acceptable. :) I don't do it personally, because I get awfully creative, but distracting, bed head. Weird shapes, I tell you.

Man, I tell you, if I don't shower then everything else will be a bigger chore for me.

Even driving will be a chore.

Shower helps me with pretty much everything. Helps me open my eyes easily, gets me relaxed for the day, helps me get rid of any itches 'cause I get them if I feel "dirty" I guess, and it's just.. I dunno clean and healthy. I gotta shine each day or else I'mma be miserable throughout the day..

I actually just took a shower now and took a shower before I made this blog because I was forced to. More or less I made this blog cause I was pissed off. But the point still stands.

I really enjoy taking a shower just getting out and finding time to place it in my schedule is the hard part. Once I finish a shower, its either get out in 5 seconds or get out in an hour lol, its hard :(

Actually it's proven that washing your hair every single day is kind of bad for it in the long run. I show every day and I feel sooo uncomfortable if I don't do it, esp. if you have long-ish hair. sdjhgjklasd.

I compare getting out of the shower to getting out of bed in the morning.... You have to do it sometime, and it eventually feels good to be out and running again, but goddammit I DON'T WANNA GET OUT YET. IT'S SO COMFY. AND IT FEELS SO COLD TO GET OUT! :(
just wanna put it off a little longer :(




but actually, I don't find any part of showers enjoyable.... they're.. gehhhh.
If I don't have any where to go for the day, I don't take a shower. I always put it off until the last minute that I have to.
I feel really comfortable after not having showered for a week. Even though it's smelly and greasy and dirty and bad-looking and I have really long hair, it's extremely comfortable. Dunno what you guys are talking about....

Dang, I dislike showers for just about the opposite reason (kinda). I actually can't operate through an entire day without a morning shower, so I force myself to find time in my schedule for it, even over other things. After a few hours past waking, my skin ends up feeling like it's infected with a crawling disease, and my head will feel as though it has very tiny, almost microscopic insects digging into the scalp and ripping at the roots of my hair (that's quite a disturbing thought now that I think about it...REALLY creepy...).

Needless to say, I become one horribly frustrated mofo when I don't get my morning shower.

I agreeeee. I shower every other day/sometimes everyday...but its annoyinggg.
And yeah, its best to wash your hair every other day. And your face, too. because if you wash your hair/face too much, they get greasy and gross quicker.

You know what is a chore?

Dealing with the odor of people who don't shower.
These. I -have- to shower in the morning it's the only way to awake. Why just today I slept until 1pm and could have kept sleeping but I rolled out of bed and into the shower and now I can take on the world. Well it's my day off so really I'll just be doing what I normally do on my days off, Braaaawl. >.>

And yeah, having had a roommate in college that bathed once a month, I can attest that dealing with their funk SUCKS. We used to leave bars of soap on his 3-tones-too-dark-cause-of-head-funk pillow just as a reminder. My dad jokingly suggested taking him out back and scrubbing him down with yard brushes and a fire hose like they did to a similar person in his platoon. :chuckle:

Personally, I'm one of those rare people who actually falls alseep in the shower. :laugh: The longest I've ever fallen asleep for was about three hours. I actually have an alarm clock in my bathroom so I'm not late for class. I LOVE showers and they are probably one of my favorite things in the world. I don't think I could ever view showering as a chore, heck, I'd even go as far as saying that I'm a shower enthusiast. :laugh: Usually thirty minutes... so hot that it's almost hard to breath and it fogs up the mirrors even if a fan is on... ah, bliss...

Lol I was the same way as a kid, but I still made myself do it regularly. My brothers on the other hand, wow they'd go a while without showerin lol, it was like a sport to them or something. The greasier the better. My mom would be like Danny for the love of god wash your hair its a ball of grease and he'd be like I know isn't it great?

But now I feel like I can't really start my day till I have a shower lol. I feel like my brain is only half there until I do. And I always have the nagging feeling of I HAVE to be clean or I can't do anything lol. Even if I'm getting ready to go do something dirty, I have to be completely clean before hand. And if I have to I'll just take another shower afterwards lol. But if in the case I can't shower I splash my face with water over and over.

Try havin your towel close by so when you are done you can just reach out real quick and grab your towel and dry yourself while still in the shower and try to keep the curtain closed till you are dry. That way you'll keep the colder air from flooding in and you won't be all wet when you get out, so you will feel less cold.

I love showers... I shower at least once every day, sometimes twice. Getting out is a chore indeed, but I can usually manage after 15 minutes or so. I just shower either in the evenings right before I go to sleep, or right after I wake up so that I'll be late for school if I don't get out in time. It works c:

I have to shower at least every other day, if not I become uncomfortable and my hair starts getting greasy and that annoys the hell out of me, I like having soft hair.

This. I do it for my hair, and for the psychological cleaning it gives me. I feel gross if I don't.

Am I the only god**** person on SWF who showers at night before I sleep?

I do.

I don't know about the helping to relax bit, but it sure works a lot better for me.

While I listen to TECHNO/TRANCE on my iPod at MEDIUM volume.
I take my showers before I got to bed as well. I mainly do this because I have classes at 8:00 AM and I have to wake up ~7:00 AM just to get ready, eat, ect. Not being an early bird, I can't see myself waking up the extra 30 minutes or so just to take a shower in the morning.

It's hard to get out of that shower because of that gust of freezing air that you get.

I usually take a shower at 9:00 PM, then sit in my room naked until I go to sleep while listening to Doom/Funeral Doom Metal.

Feels good man.

I usually shower after soccer/before bed. I hate it when my hair feels greasy. I'll also shower if I wake up and feel disgusting.

That or before a large social gathering. Can't stink up the place. =D

3-5 times a week? Man you're ****ing gross, you need to shower every day.

I think I'm excessive though, I shower 2 times a day on average.

The more you shower, the more you 'get some'
The more you 'get some' the more you need to shower
Understand? Women love men clean as possible, so shave and rub your self down in oil so that they can see you shine!

I used to but I'm usually more active at night so it had the opposite effect and I wouldn't be able to sleep until 3 or 4 in the morning (when I usually had class at 8 or 9).

Lolwtf??

Uhh...you must be like...VERY young.

1. Find time to take a sure? It should be the first thing you do everyday when you wake up. It also helps WAKE you up.

2. ..........I remember I used to hate getting out of the shower because it was so ****ing cold. But that problem went away at like age 9. You should be so used to it by now that you don't even notice it anymore. Practice makes perfect?

3. Dude if people are telling you you stink, you needa take a shower lolol. The worst feeling in the world is being nasty/greasy/stinky. I remember I went to the tournament whobo in texas where we didn't have a room so I couldn't shower. Eehhhggh I can't stand not taking a shower every morning

...Eww.
I'm very glad I don't have to be in close proximity with you. O.o ;
Showers are fun, and if you aren't having fun, get something fun to do in the shower.
I agree with Hyro, if people are telling you that you don't smell too good, you NEED to shower....
Besides, when you have a job interview, when it ACTUALLY matters how good you smell, it'd actually matter in your life.
Then again, if you like stink, I don't think compost workers need to bathe, since they can just blame their rank on the garbage ^.^

I couldn't even stand the idea of going a single day without showering. >.< It wakes me up in the morning, and makes me NOT feel disgusting for the entire day. I have no problem getting out of the shower, simply because it's about a hundred times easier than getting out of bed in the first place. =P

I think I'd shower in the morning, but then I'd have to get up earlier. I can get out of bed without too much hassle, anyways.

Actually, this reminds me of the time I was in Italy. The first two hotels I stayed in had NO hot water for the shower. I went 4 days taking ice cold showers. I didn't really enjoy showering then. =[

I'll only shower in the morning if I feel disgusting when I wake up. Usually only happens when I've been sick or it got really hot for some reason. @_@

I like showers cuz without them I feel greasy and half asleep. The only days I don't take showers is when I'm not going anywhere or seeing anyone.

Am I the only god**** person on SWF who showers at night before I sleep?

I used to take a shower at night, but now my hair is longer, and I'd always wake up with bed head that could only be fixed by a shower. Besides, I talk to my girlfriend almost every night on the phone, and her voice is enough to help me get to sleep after I get off the phone.

Days that are guarunteed for me to take a shower are days that I go out so don't worry about me smelling at your tourneys at least xD

Actually, I've been showering more lately, 3-5 days, its actually more like 4-7 days I shower a week, yeah I still need to shower more, but getting out is like getting out of bed D:

I probably wouldn't have this problem if I took baths instead but I don't want to use up **** loads of water.
