I have well water, moved into my home 30+years ago, it was a run down old farmhouse that should have been tore down, but when your penniless, and 2 kids you do what you need to do. my water pressure then was a drizzle, finally got a new well set that sucker to 40/60 pressure, and now an on demand water heater its almost heaven. Couldn't imagine not having a shower every day.

Lume had a commercial with a black girl spraying it down inside the front of her pants........ I heard it got pulled because it was racist

this one is both racist and gay

OP. Yes. Up to 3. Fixed Income. Hot water = $$$. No weather factor in these parts. Plus I’m lazy.

 

[RJ Squirrel]

That gross bitch in the commercial that puts it under her boobs, in her buttcrack, and other places we dont want to know about.
Yeah man, she needs a pressure washer shower.

When I went to grad school we had people from Nigeria and Saudi Arabia in my classes.

The guy from Saudi Arabia wore the nicest clothes, but you could smell him from 30 ft. away.

The women from Nigeria smelled a lot worse than the men from there. It was horrible.

It's no joke after class I had to take a shower because I felt dirty from being around them.

My everyday morning ritual is a shower. Then another if I have been outdoors working and sweating, and when I routinely played Golf, an after-round shower to cool down and refresh. The commercials for that Lume SH*T that a supposed Dermatologist gal started were a joke from the beginning. And now all the other ones as well. When I was flying worldwide with the USAF, many a time I would have to go maybe a day and a half or max 2 days, not showering, and my flight suit would get rather ripe. So a good long shower was the rule after we hit our crew rest and a load of laundry. All those foreign shithole countries I transited, for the most part, all the natives stunk to high heaven!!! Really gross when you have no way of avoiding them when they are working the aircraft, and the loading crews smelled like 30-day-old Goat Piss!! I believe the Christian value of "Cleanliness is Next to Godliness" makes perfect sense as I personally don't like to "STINK"... cr8crshr/Bill

It hasn't rained in a couple weeks.

I remember when working for the airline we would go out on an engine change somewhere and be on the job/clock for 3 days straight without any way to shower or clean up. Most guys took an extra shirt. When we finished we would jump on the first flight back home dirty. We would apologize to the people we sat around right off the bat as we new we didn't smell like roses. The flight crews new and the FAs too as they new we had been working. The FAs took care of us the best they could. Usually we all slept the whole way home. I've spent lots of nights sleeping in planes overnight waiting for the next flight home in the morning. Can't do that any more as the FAA cracked down on maintenance working more than 24 has straight without rest.

I think my record is 16 days without a shower! But, I was in the boundary waters trapping wolves. I was with 3 women and when we got back to the cabin there was a note on the table that said, "No water, wating on a plumber." Oh, man! That sucked! We called a campground and they let us go use their showers. Other jobs I've had, nobody showers for a week. So, skip a day sometimes. And, my girlfriend still sleeps with me!

I think it’s a ploy to get people used to the idea of using less water…can’t elaborate more in this forum.

I have a old friend from 3rd grade who is kind of the off grid guy, someone from 1930 or so, can't weigh 100lbs, so cheap he cuts firewood for heat and burns the wood at smoldering stage with just enough air to get the most out of the free wood he cuts in his woods. Not sure what his schedule for washing up is but when you gotta get close to him smells like smoked cheese, and wonders why he has skin issues, don't see him much these days.

So tight I bet he squeaks when he walks.

I have come close to vomiting after getting close to some people who obviously haven't showered frequently. Getting on a packed commuter train of bus in summer can be a real bad experience.

I couldn’t wait to take a shower when I was in the hospital for 2 months. I would’ve like the “sponge baths” more but the nurses weren’t like the ones that I pictured in my mind.

They never are sadly.

 

[QuickBpBp]

Nope never shower every night. It’s a new trend though as it seems as I have never seen/smelled so many that should shower or stay home…

Some countries where the use of deodorant is not the norm, public transportation can be a real experience.

My mind boggles at how bad London transport is now compared to when I was using it everyday back in the '90's.

While working in HK when the wife would visit we would take the subway downtown to eat and she would bury her face in my chest so she could breathe. It would make your eyes water sometimes.

Of all our senses, smell is the first one to slowly decline from aging, and why old people often lose their appetite.
Meaning most old folks have little self-awareness of their declining hygiene, not so sure that is a bad or a good thing.
If nothing else, tells you who your real friends are.

Smell is also the fastest sense to "fatigue", meaning you become used to your own body odor so you can detect the newest smell that might indicate danger, like a fire, or a poorly tuned carb, or that is not gasoline you are pouring into your tank.

It might have to with strong body odor allowing one not to have share a cubicle on the tube, based on my UK experience.
I confess, I never have to share my pizza when I order anchovies.
