Ok, somebody’s gotta say it and it’s gonna be me:
Yo dawg, we put a shower in your shower so you can shower while you shower.
How’d you solve the last 25%?
Recursion.
I uh… might have forgotten the terminal condition, so feel free to report me for violating Rule 2 of this community - breaking the law! (of good sense):-P
If you have finitely many problems, after purchasing finitely many copies, there should only be one problem left. If this problem isn’t solved with another copy, you’re out of luck and have to come up with the solution yourself.
If you have infinitely many problems then you shouldn’t complain, for you’ll solve infinitely many problems per copy.
You missed an opportunity to phrase that as how you may have 99 problems, but the last one is still there :-).
Template for future use: [insert popular phrase] (best if improperly applied, claiming it is for “ironic” purposes), then [follow up with cat picture].
Sounds like a “Achilles and the tortoise” problem
Zeno’s pair-a-books!
I bought n books and I only have 100/2^^n problems left.
So it’s like Bitcoin mining, then, halving each time.
Thank you for your service. I wasn’t going to leave that un-posted, believe!
You missed the part where you zone out and replay arguments you had years ago. But this time you’re smarter and always win
I don’t always win, but I learn from the mistakes. Like watching football play footage lol
Make sure you use a long extension cord to a fuse without RCD for the hair dryer, though - otherwise the constant resetting of the breaker will eat up all your time savings.
Which psychopath brushes their teeth first and then eats breakfast like he’s in some kind of stupid movie
Well, I have been doing this for a couple of years now. I brush my teeth before eating in the morning because apparently that’s better for your teeth, otherwise you might damage enamel. Or you wait for at least 30-60 minutes, but nobody’s got time for that. Just rinsing with water after eating is fine.
Truth is I usually don’t eat breakfast, so I don’t have to think about it. But when I do, it’s this order for me now.
It doesn’t say that, at least in the way I interpret the text. It says you should wait to brush your teeth after a given time after eating
Exactly, 30 to 60 minutes. I linked to the second paragraph, the one before suggests it might be better to brush before breakfast. But waiting is fine as well of course.
Brushing immediately after eating breakfast may actually cover your teeth with remnants of acidic food, which weakens your enamel.
And then
Waiting 30 minutes to an hour after eating to brush your teeth is the best way to ensure that you’re protecting your teeth and not tampering with your enamel.
Brushing before you eat isn’t in this article at all
The article title is literally “Should I Brush My Teeth Before or After Breakfast?” starting with this exact sentence:
"Brushing before you eat breakfast is better for your tooth enamel and overall oral health. However, if you prefer brushing after you eat, wait about 30-60 minutes."
With the first follow-up header: “Why it may be better to brush before breakfast”.
Are we not reading the same article or are you trolling me and am I going for that bait…?
Turns out I can’t read 😱
If I ain’t brushing them in the morning I am not gonna brush them later. I am too lazy for that.
You can still brush them in the morning. Just after you’ve eaten breakfast
Many people I know eat breakfast either on the way to work or once they get there. I only know one guy who brushes at the office and frankly he’s clearly on the spectrum and very socially awkward anyway so people likely aren’t about to follow his lead.
I guess it’s fine if it’s been a bit after brushing lol. But eating at work actually sounds kinda nice. Easing into work like that and starting it slow etc
I don’t have the discipline to do that. If I don’t do it when I go in the bathroom in the morning I maybe brush them in the evening
clearly it’s the same kind of psychopath who would also wash his car and check his email and use a hair dryer in the shower
I don’t see how brushing your teeth in the shower saves time. Unless your brushing while you shampoo or something, you’re just making your shower longer, which wastes more water.
I brush my teeth after applying the conditioner in my hair. Being done brushing signifies it is time to rinse out the conditioner
I just put my conditioner in before I wash the rest of my body, then I rinse everything off at once.
I stand there enjoying the hot water and zoning out letting my mind wander. May as well do something useful while I’m just standing there anyway.
Exactly. Plus I rather stand under the hot water instead of standing in the bathroom which is not as warm, in the cold weather.
The water takes like a minute to heat up here, so I start brushing my teeth while it’s heating up and I finish in the shower
I finish in the shower.
is there a /c/nocontext ?
oh
It’s a habit I picked up in basic training. We had 50 girls to 12 shower heads, and we really didn’t get much time for all of us to shower at all in the first couple weeks (the time constraint was relaxed after a bit though)
The tooth brushing deal though I think was because our TI would find the tiniest speck of water in the sinks after lights out and absolutely lose his shit. So we only used the sinks to wash our hands, so we didn’t accidentally leave toothpaste in the bowl of the sink and miss it while cleaning up for the evening.
Either way, it’s just a habit that’s stuck with me through the years.
brushing your teeth in the shower
I tried this. Turns out that sonicare toothbrushes are only water resistant and will fail eventually when used in the shower every day. 0/10 Don’t recommend.
Otherwise, if you spend a lot of time daydreaming in the shower to begin with, this can save a few minutes.
Lil flippy knob at the top of the shower head to pause the water is a great water saver. You only really need the water running for like 20% of your time in the shower. I love brushing my teeth in the shower, you can get toothpaste everywhere and then just rinse it off without making a huge mess at the sink, way easier to rinse your mouth with water angled down from above than from a sink below.
I get cold just thinking about this. Turning off the shower is my least favourite part of showering. Why repeat the experience several times in one session?
ya like what psychopath turns the water off mid shower
That other commenter! Loves edging their shower, apparently…
Do you leave the windows open? My bathroom is so steamy and hot that I don’t notice it, it’s hard to lotion up after with all the steam still hanging around keeping my skin wet even with repeated toweling. But I take very hot showers in a very small bathroom. It’s only cold when I open the door. I do have to clean red water mold off the walls and ceiling a lot, it would probably be better to keep the place ventilated while I shower.
No exhaust fan?
Nope. My house was built in 1915 and doesn’t have fancy things like exhaust fans, kitchen or bathroom. The bathroom didn’t have a toilet until the 1930s, it was literally just a bath room. They had an outhouse.
in other words; you can save water by doing less. nice life hack too
Going through the car wash with the windows down is really the best way to hit these all at once.
You should also wash the laptop while checking emails (with Windows down)
How else do you clean a laptop of its viruses?

Make toast
Wasn’t this a Seinfeld bit with Kramer?
Whole episode around it, yes
Yes. Kramer even put a garage disposal in his shower.
Made a salad and stuff, served it to a table of people and mentioned that he made it while showering.

Title: The Apology
Here’s a Youtube video that shows just the Kramer bits:
I came to post this one too, one of the best episodes
I do all my own electrical work in the shower.
I’m surprised some tech company hasn’t put waterproof touchscreen devices in their employee locker room showers so that their employees can reply to email in there.
I’m surprised they didn’t add them to the toilet stalls either
“all cameras must be uncovered during zoom meetings”
Should I check my emails while I’m taking a shower in the shower?
No, there is a limit to multi tasking
If there’s no limit to monitors, there’s no limit to multitasking. And there’s no limit to monitors.
Now if only someone would develop the waterproof monitor…
Wonder what type of graphics card they are using. My work laptop could only handle a max of 4 external monitors.
I’m guessing more than one. Doesn’t look like a laptop.
Yo dawg I heard you like showers…
Seriously though, brushing my teeth in the shower is the best way to get me to do it.
I’ve been doing it for a while and it not only saves a lot of time, I also think i’m a lot more thorough because of it.
Mmmm. Soggy toast.
Toast becomes soggy anyway once you eat it
