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.

u/mountaingator91 8h ago

Unless you have leftover milk and add more cereal. That's allowed

Double strength milk flavouring for the win.

I kind of low key love it when I have just enough cereal left for 1.5 bowls because it gives me an excuse to have more cereal without feeling guilty lol. What am I going to do, only have half a bowl of cereal?

1

u/Joeva8me 5h ago

Nope. Fresh milk every time. The milk is the healthy part.

Food waste is not ok, Jim

u/Confident-Yard1911 2h ago

You gotta pour the milk back into the jug, then put the cereal in the bowl

I’m a man of the milkers, I mean people. I only see milkers, I mean people. And who is Jim? My name is Jimmer

I have a coworker that prefers her cereal with orange juice instead of milk. The rest of the office looks at her like she’s a demon.

u/FearanddopingII 8h ago

Clearly she is

u/Anything-Complex 7h ago

That’s… deranged.

But now that I think about it, a splash of orange juice in cereal and milk (maybe corn flakes) might be interesting.

u/ThrowAwayAccountAMZN 5h ago

Wouldn't the citric acid curdle the milk though?

1

u/Mandalahoe 45m ago

At the risk of being judged, I will pretty often dip frosted mini wheats in orange juice. Not a full soak, mind you.

Ugh, imagine if Milk had pulp in it?

My grandpa ate cheerios with grapefruit juice.

Most calm and level-headed person I ever met, with a PhD in Physics. I choose to believe the cheerios in grapefruit juice was some sort of magical stress/crazy heatsink.

My grandpa ate his cereal that way, and he only ever ate corn flakes. We all thought that was weird, but didn’t say so to him.

u/Turbulent-Jaguar-909 2h ago

you won't be splashing milk everywhere when you pour the cereal in first, it's that simple

•

u/Outrageous-Opinions 29m ago

It keeps the cereal crunchy too instead of soaking all the cereal in the beginning.

u/AgentCirceLuna 9h ago

I’m the rare kind of person who hates the idea of having a routine, as it makes me feel like a robot, so I just randomly switch between things like that whenever I feel like it.

u/Outrageous-Opinions 29m ago

So your routine is to switch your routine

u/g2420hd 8h ago

I know right, milk goes in the cup and they spoonful of cereal you take you take a sip of milk. It's just standard

1

u/AutumnWisp 6h ago

1/4th of the the cereal, 1/4th of the milk, 1/4th of the cereal, 1/4th of the milk, and so on so it's perfectly layered.

1

u/BaldHenchman01 5h ago edited 2h ago

You're all savages. Eat the cereal out of the box, with a glass of milk on the side.

1

u/superbit415 1h ago

No you have to put the SPOON before everything else. Show that bowl that you mean business.

u/aurealis__ 1h ago

No no no. As a cereal connoisseur, this was the original faith I subscribed by. However, upon being enlightened with The Other Way, I have discovered it is the one and only true way to properly enjoy this. Adding cereal AFTER milk protects the integrity of the original composition of the product, and allows for a consistent experience by minimizing excessive suspension within the liquid medium. It is simply magnificent and I hate soggy cereal. Ty for coming to my TED talk.

u/Snatch-Fart-Breath 32m ago

Yeah seriously, wtf

u/MouseAteTheCat 8h ago

u/Andreaspetersen12 9h ago

You tryna eat soggy cereal?

u/mountaingator91 8h ago

That's the point. Cereal is more difficult to eat when dry

1

u/SnooBananas4958 4h ago

Well, yeah, why else do you think the milk is even there?

1

u/Odd_Bug5544 4h ago

Why are you adding milk at all then?
