Showers. Last time I took a bath was when I broke my arm when I was 12. I'm 22 now. I have no interest in taking a bath, I suppose.

Also reshiram, how does your water stay hot for hours? That must use a lot of gas/electricity.

I shower more often than I bathe. But, our bathtub is not really so great for bathing. Well, it could work, but it's full of the shampoo bottles and like someone else's; it doesn't hold the heat long. I push the hot to max also, but that's because the water in the lines tends to be really, REALLY cold unless it's a hot day. So it uses a lot of the water heater's supply to keep the water warm.

Reason 2 why showers are awesome: shaving.

I shave my legs in the bath sometimes.

It's not really a weaker tactic than in the shower, from my perspective.

Being in the shower is perhaps one of the only times in the day I actually relax, so...those!

Oh yeah, this thread

The resort where I'm staying right now has whirlpool bathtubs in the bathrooms, so I've been taking a lot of baths lately in order to be able to enjoy this effect.

Mmmyep, this is why I take showers always. Though most days I take overly long (30 min+) showers..

Given how I prefer an electric razor, I don't think that showering while shaving would be a particularly good idea.

Haven't taken a bath in forever. Last time I did was when the shower didn't work so baths are only out of necessity.

Showers and baths take too long so I usually spend that time doing other stuff.

Look I understand sometimes you can't shower literally every day but if there is ever a week where you only showered twice there is something really wrong happening.

Anyway I'm gonna go take another whirlpool bath

these are great

Showers. Nothing but showers.

... Unless I get to use a hot tub, or jacuzzi.

But otherwise, showers. A place to sit as well would be nice too (like the stand-up shower that we have here.)

And my showers also tend to take ~30-45 minutes since that's the only time when I really get to relax. Plus I come up with some pretty cool ideas, too.

Yeah I've sorta been doing this but I've been asked to cut it out. I understand why, but the problem is that I lose all sense of time in the shower. What I think is about 15 minutes in the shower turns out to be over a half hour. ;;

Pretty much this. I mean, if it's a hot day and I just feel like my clothes are clinging to me, I'll jump right in the shower. But for your basic college week, shower Sunday night/Monday morning, shower again on Wednesday night. By Sunday night, I'm not disgusting, nor do I smell.

Same here. I pretty much only shower after exercise, and that's usually only every other day or 2. If I'm being especially lazy and not exercising, it's usually once every 3 or 4 days, so averages about 2-4 times per week.

Yes you are. You're just used to your own scent. Believe me, I've encountered a lot of people who thought the same way as you... But they all smelled terrible.

Actually, I frequently check. And trust me, if I smell, my parents will tell me.

I dread what frequently checking actually entails.

No, you need to shower frequently. It's just healthy. You have the time.

Ok, night before a social event or night before I go out to meet friends, then yeah, I'll shower. But on a plain week where I'm just going back and forth to college, I'm fine.

But hell, right now, I'm monopolising this thread

I don't know about everybody, but I know at least I can tell when someone has so much as taken a brief trip somewhere. As for your parents, you're living together. They can grow accustomed to it, too. Please, for the sake of your classmates at least, take a shower at least every other day. You don't want to be "that classmate who usually smells kinda bad".
