  • Shower. In a bath, you sit in your own dirt.

    • If you think that you're getting significantly less clean because you're in a solution of your own dirt, then I don't think you're thinking about the volume of water involved very realistically (which is understandable, because volume can be really hard to conceptualise — I had to look up the volume of a bath to make sure). Unless you're caked in mud before bathing, any dirt on you would be extremely dilute in a bath. A bath generally uses 30 to 50 gallons (about 110 to 190 litres) of water. That's plenty dilute enough for me.

      People don't get sick from taking baths instead of showers. They don't smell bad after taking baths. So what's the problem? It seems like it's just a conceptual thing. And I mean, that's allowed. If the idea bothers you, that's ok. You can have those thoughts inside your own head, and you don't have to take baths. But not everybody CAN take showers, and some people just prefer baths. That's ok too.

      Besides, there are mites living in your eyelash follicles. They're totally normal, and they look like this: http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m30kojgmjz1qb2d54o1_400.jpg There are a million tiny Lovecraft stories happening in and on your skin every second. So I'm not going to stress about things that don't cause disease, because it's either that or never stop screaming.

    • Not necessarily. It depends on how dirty you are.

      • I pick shower. Only because I am usually in a hurry when I take them. Also I am weirdly paranoid and hate silence so bath scare me. Unless I just worked out and am to tired to stand.

      • That reminds me of that scene in "The Vanilla Tux" (I think that's what it was called.) Basically, These guys somehow get ahold of a pristine white tuxedo and there was this dirty hobo that wanted to wear the tux. They allow him to wear the tux because he was filthy so they put him in the bath. Afterwards, when they drain the water there's a filthy black sludge at the bottom.

        I can't remember the rest:/
