I think people shower too much...

I discovered, years ago, that one only needs to shower the 1st and the 15th day of odd months. One can skip the rule when the Earth eclipses the Moon, or when there is an election, or during hurricane season.

After hearing about my thrifty beauty routines involving the shower, people often inform me they are contemplating suicide, to which I respond that I don't care much because that is their problem.

Seriously, how did humanity survive so long without showers, indoor plumbing and water heaters?

Showering is pure superstition and germanophobia. Just because the krauts invented the police state doesn't mean we normal humans have to be as obsessed with hygiene as they are. Just pay the fine and be free!

(Notes: the above is mostly comedy; The deliberate conflation of "germanophobia" with "germaphobia" is deliberate; I remember a scene in a boring sci-fi movie called "Starship Troopers" about this mixed showers, where female troopers where commenting they joined the military only to gain permission from the Earth Government to become mothers: we live in a world that is best described as sci-fi cheesy script)
