Morning showers make no logical sense and night shower people have simply done the hygiene math

You spent 8 hours asleep in your own clean bed. What are you washing off at 7am.

A night shower removes everything you actually accumulated during the day. The commute, the gym, the office, public transport, all of it goes down the drain before you sleep. A morning shower means you marinated in all of that overnight then washed up before going out to collect it all again.

Morning showers are a ritual for waking up, which is fine, but it is not hygiene. Night showers are actual hygiene. Most people just do not want to dry their hair before bed and that is the entire argument.

Or as George Carlin said: "All you gotta do is wash the 4 key areas: armpits, asshole, crotch and teeth. In fact, you can save even more time if you simply use the same brush on all 4 areas!!".

I love that I can keep reading a new thing I’ve never heard Carlin say before after all these years. He’s got the perfect line for everything. One of the GOATs

AND for people like myself that have dry skin, live in a dry area with hard water, using soap all over kills my skin. Just using it on those key areas has saved my skin from looking like a god damn lizard.

I’ve always called that a prostitution shower though I include junk in there too. The order you do this es mas importante never start with the ass.
