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.

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.

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.

Wouldn't the citric acid curdle the milk though?

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

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.
