all the embarrassing stuff i've ever said

 

[Gabriel_Logan]

I actually don't physically enter the shower for about 10 minutes, and its not because i'm masturbating or anything.

 

[bjork]

Biting my nails or shaving my balls and butt crack. Or both, in that order.

 

[Dead]

All of my showers last between 30-40 minutes.

If im not working they are between 15 to 20 minutes

 

[enigmatic_alex44]

40 minutes hot shower every day??? haha please tell me you are joking Alex

lol ^_^ well maybe not EVERY day.... I do try to cut it short some days (short would be 15 min) but on stressful days it's really therapeutic!

 

[M3d10n]

I do my part and use as little water and power as possible, so my showers are short.

I first get my body wet, turn off the warm water, get my hair and face wet (washing my hair with cold water keeps my dandruff away), turn off the water, apply shampoo, shower gel and facial soap, turn the water on (still cold), rinse my hair and face, turn the heating on and rinse the body. Done.

 

[Cheddahz]

It's just relaxing, I guess

 

[Melon Husk]

It's the manlier way to taking a bath. Running water can be therapeutic and relaxing. Something that's sadly not available everywhere in the world.

I'm winning imaginary or past arguments.

Sometimes this.

 

[Aaron-Lagann]

I brush my teeth, shave my head everyday to keep a nice clean look, then wash myself. That takes awhile, and especially in the cold months the hot water feels awesome, so fuck it, take as long as you want.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Screw that, 5 minutes with the coldest water possible, come out feeling like a bawse.

 

[EatChildren]

Crying.

 

[PJV3]

Only if I can still find chunks of food inside.

Yep, you can reuse sweetcorn several times if you need to.

 

[TheJLC]

Planning stuff, thinking of important stuff, and relieving stress with a hot shower. It's my personal relaxing time and I'm going to enjoy it.

 

[Brinbe]

Relaxing. It can be a very meditative experience when you're stressed

 

[Easy_D]

Nothing like taking a hot long shower coupled with some stretching the morning.

Edit: I forgot about singing. 15 minutes, that's about 3 songs right there.

 

[God Enel]

What they are doing? Www.reddit.com/showerthoughts

 

[Powdered Toastman]

Crying.

Like tears in rain

 

[hodgy100]

I do my best programming in the shower!

 

[RebornYeti]

First reply nails it.

All your questions about life are asked in the shower. I thought everyone knew this?

 

[Frost_Ace]

I wish I could shower with my boyfriend right now.

 

[Burgess_101]

Long showers/baths are the greatest thing for relieving stress. I can spend upwards of 20mins in the shower easily and well in excess of an hour in the bath. Lie down and reading neogaf or a book is perfection.

 

[Alcotholic]

I like to reflect on shit in the shower. It's very easy for me to separate myself from the world in there for a while.

 

[Lone Wolf]

Crying.

Seriously, I do my crying in the shower.

 

[Jon Armdog]

OP you should time travel to the 1980s and base a stand-up comedy routine around this complaint.

Ha ha, greatness.

Settle down OP. It helps wake some people up, and a hot shower is unbeatable in the winter.

 

[Buddha Beam]

I spend about 15-20 minutes in the shower, but we live in one of the most water abundant places on the planet, so I don't worry about it too much.

 

[SilentRacoon]

It helps you clear your mind, very relaxing too after a stressful day's journey, sometimes it could take me well over half an hour.

The fuck are you doing in there?
I can understand a bit more with the girls if they need more time to wash their hair and shit but come on. I just need to get in the damn bathroom because my hair stuff's in there and I need to leave the house.

Also, how does one wash their shit?

 

[GSG Flash]

I take long showers. A nice warm shower is the best place to think about life, universe and everything.

Also, if I'm doing any man grooming, that shit takes a long time.

 

[Lothar]

Thinking about death. Or masturbating.

 

[FFP2]

Taking long showers really relaxes me and gives me time to think about shit.

 

[SliceSabre]

Sometimes I just sit for a while and just let the water wash over me while I think about life.

I don't fap in the shower because water+semen is a messier situation than you think it is.

 

[Spinluck]

It depends. I'm slow as fuck sometimes. I also like to wash thoroughly.

I haven't jerked in the shower in years though. Seems like something you do when you're living with your parents and siblings, since it can be hard to get some privacy.

 

[Troubled Bat]

- I like to be clean, and feel clean
- I tend to lose track, and get lost in the warmth of my shower because it feels absolutely amazing
- Putting soap/body wash all over my body, not just one specific area--taking the time to actually get in on everything
- Putting Shampoo and Conditioner. And non of that bullshit of mixing both together, they must be done separately!
- Brush my teeth while showering
- If I must, I shave in the shower (Unless it's some full grown hair, then no)

This is the way of life, what is your excuse?

 

[Not]

I mean, masturbating, right? Easiest way to get rid of the mess

 

[DarknessTear]

I like the feeling of really hot water running over my body. So I do that for a while.

 

[Magnus]

It's a safe zone for me. The heat is super relaxing, and the sound of the water masks my crazy ass tinnitus. I often think in there, walk through my day (the one ahead or the one I just went through).

 

[Alucrid]

 

[waypoetic]

I like warm water running down my naked body, what can I say.

 

[MartyStu]

Shaving.

Actually cleaning myself.

Programming.

Working through stuff.

Sleeping.

 

[Shiina]

Sometimes I just sit for a while and just let the water wash over me while I think about life.

I don't fap in the shower because water+semen is a messier situation than you think it is.

Actually it's only warm or hot water that reacts with it in that way.

 

[pharmx]

It's godlike. Hot shower + cold beer.

I can't believe I've never done this...must try!

 

[BlackJace]

It's like being in your own zone. It's me and only me.

 

[Busaiku]

I take like 30-45 minute cold showers.
It's normally like 80+ degrees here, even during Fall and some of winter, so it feels great.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Think about the universe?

Yep.

 

[YoYo Switch]

that men should be shamed for spending a long time relaxing in the shower or on the toilet is why I need feminism
#jointheconversation

 

[hertog]

Shower beer is so good.

This, before a real night out. I'll enjoy my first beer under the shower with the music on max volume

 

[EASTC0AST_GH05T]

I like to wash my balls and butt real good

 

[Eiolon]

I sit in the shower and let the water fall down on me. Some times I fall asleep.

 

[AwayFromInfinityx]

Being zen, duh.

pretty much.

 

[SliceSabre]

Actually it's only warm or hot water that reacts with it in that way.

I...didn't actually know this. But now that you mention it, it was always warm/hot water whenever the remains were being rinsed away. Not cold because, well who faps in a cold shower?

I have learned something today.

 

[Complistic]

Usually letting super hot water almost burn the day's aches out of my body.
