Showers are only great if you rip out that flow restriction thing in the head. It's hilarious to see some massive awesome shower with 'waterfall' head only to have it dribble out water.

I have showered for many many years and recently rediscovered the benefits of a hot bath. Laying in that hot water and basking it it’s enveloping warmth is like a sore dick; it’s hard to beat!

Imagine the folks like the Little House family. Dad out plowing and shite all day in the sun. Mom slopping hogs, working the garden, and cooking over a hot fire. Then they hop in bed together at night while looking forward to a lukewarm bath next Saturday.

Meh. Perhaps...perhaps not.

But you for damned sure miss it on those days when it isn't working right...

I know we like to kid around about stuff like this on here, but this is one of things you don't think much about until you don't have access to it. Camping or backpacking allows some folks to voluntarily "rough it" without such amenities.

But, let's look at an example where it isn't voluntary.

True story - I was involved in the relief operation after Hurricane Katrina. I actually arrived in New Orleans on the Sunday night before the storm came through. We evacuated Jackson Barracks on Monday and I came to be at the Superdome that Monday night, a week before Labor Day 2005.

Flash forward past a lot of unpleasant shite that went down - no access to hot food, showers, clean clothes, etc., for a full week. I got back to my home station (Carville, LA) on Labor Day afternoon, 2005. I had some clothes stashed there, so I got a hot shower, change of clothes and a hot meal - I've literally never felt better than I did at that moment in my life.

We just built a new house, had a custom tiled shower put in with multiple heads, and it is really nice. Good hot water as well.

This. I mean, I appreciate a hot shower, but flush toilets are most underrated of modern conveniences. You were lucky if you could use an outhouse--if you lived in a city, you had a chamber pot. Imagine sleeping in a room with a ceramic pot full of piss and shite. And then emptying it in the street right outside your house. Yikes!

The only reason why I like winter time is that the water is finally cold enough to do contrast showers. They're great for helping alleviate cold symptoms, help with muscle soreness, and are a general shock to the system that helps me get ready for the day.

A lot of times when I'm taking a hot shower (no pics) I think to myself how bad it would suck to be in prison and being forced to take cold showers.

The ability to flush toilets and not scold anybody taking a shower is the most underrated part of modern homes.

Hot water is hard on your skin.Dries it out and promotes wrinkles.So if you want an old wrinkley arse keep taking those hot showers.
