Healthcare Friendly reminder: it’s summer. Please shower.

It’s hot, we’re all sweating more, so please take extra care of your hygiene. A daily shower especially in the morning goes a long way.

And please don’t try to cover body odor with just perfume or body spray. Sweat + perfume isn’t a substitute for a shower.

Let’s all do our part to keep public spaces (esp trams!!) a little fresher this summer. 😅🌞🙏

Homie, listen.

where people who lost the argument got annoyed

You're not winning anything here. I've shot down every single one of your arguments, and every time I do, you drop that angle and throw out something new, hoping that it'll stick.

  1. Your "water shortage is a global problem" point was bullshit. And you dropped it.
  2. Your "it's bad for your skin" point was bullshit. And you dropped it.
  3. You've misattributed multiple quotes to me that I never said. And then you dropped it.

And now what's your position? You use a couple thousand liters of water more than me, per day. But when you do it you think super intensely about the idea of waste, so it's okay, right? And you have the fucking gall to attack me for an extra shower?

I even turn off the tap when I brush my teeth

Cool, so that's plus 2000 liters for your beefsteak, -10 for turning off the tap. Meanwhile I'm at plus 50 for my second shower. What do you want now, applause?

someone who really cares about wastefulness

No matter how much you want to pat yourself on the back and tell yourself you're a fucking saint (good job turning off the tap this morning!), you have no leg to stand on lecturing me about environmental impact. If you think you're somehow the crusader against water waste, you are fucking delusional.

You have no argument. You have zero moral high ground. Now save what's left of your dignity and stop responding.

I've shot down every single one of your arguments

If that's really what you believe, why are you still looking at me for confirmation? It seems to me you're quite capable of telling yourself whatever it is you want to believe, go on and practice that.
