Enjoying the warmth mostly

Same vibe:

People who go on beach vacation for a week, what are you doing there? I can undress, have a swim, get sand into my crotch and a sunburn on my shoulder in less than an hour. WHAT ARE YOU DOING

Usually staring blankly at the wall, hoping the shower will somehow rinse some grime off my brain too.

Shooting water from my fingertips like the awesome aqua wizard that I am

Hey you let my poor adhd brain ruminate in scalding hot peace

It's not a fucking speedrun homie. This isn't shower any%. I'm usually listening to music and enjoying the hot water. Plus if it's a wash day, washing and conditioning long hair takes a while.

I can do it in 5 min but why? It’s relaxing. My brain can wander. It’s warm.

Sitting on the floor, letting the hot water pour over my head as sad piano music plays in the background

Debug my code

Plan new code

Like, where else would you do that?

Its warm and I dissociated.

Generating content for !showerthoughts@lemmy.world , of course.

Win imaginary arguments. Make the world a better place. Solve the mystery of life. Achieve ascension, realize perfection demands non-existence, return to my imperfect self. Play with water. The usual.

i mean, i'm just chillin. it's peaceful there.

Avoiding my responsibilities.

Enjoying one of only two relaxing events in my waking hours (the other being taking a shit on work time)

Contemplating life

Plotting my revenge

It takes time to wash and condition long hair especially if even approaching recommended dwell times. Same thing with any medicated shampoo.

Jorkin' it.

The 3 S

Shit

Shower

Shave

Staring into the void, like I do everywhere else

Washing my hair, shaving my legs and armpits, emptying my menstrual cup (hey, you asked). Shit takes time.

I don't pay for water in my apartment, nor do I pipes that make noise in the building.

I take long showers

My brother in law washed each of his toes individually.

Humming the ninth symphony. It's long.

Grooming and cleaning my beard+hair takes about 20 min. The rest takes 5-10 min.

Years ago I had a roommate who took obscenely long showers. One time we were supposed to go food shopping but he wanted a "quick shower" before we went. I watched 2 episodes of narcos on Netflix, got frustrated, went shopping alone, drove to store, and did a week worth of grocery shopping, drove back, brought all groceries to the apartment (third floor), put everything away, waited another 30 minutes and he finally came out of the shower.

I have no idea what he did in there.

Spacing out, probably

15' here but in my defense, long hair needs extra care.

I plot my revenge on the people who slight me.

Feeling something from the scorching hot water relaxing my muscles of my ever existing pain.
It's a nice break from life.

Maybe I will wake up from this strange dream.

If I'm feeling energetic and I really hurry and I don't need to wash my hair I can do 20.

Usually takes me 30+. And that's just the shower part.

I don't understand how a significantly faster shower is possible.

Like others have said, if there's no need to rush, there's no need to rush. And I've got long curly hair that needs to be washed, conditioned, detangled.

Getting the temperature to just below the point where it's painful, and then cooking the 12 hour shift off of me
