Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Stuff just doesn't happen as well if I'm not bathed. It's a thing.

I definitely hear that, but no hot water? In Michigan? In January? No thanks.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I can't function right without a shower in the morning, unless the first thing I'm going to do is get hot and sweaty, in which case I know a shower's coming later. Stuff just doesn't happen as well if I'm not bathed. It's a thing.

ita is me.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I LIKE to shower everyday, but frankly, now that I have a baby that's a luxury. I figure once I have two babies, people will be lucky if I manage to brush my hair once a day.

If I only had a brain...

I shower before bed. It's one of those religious divides; some people get up and get clean, some people get clean and go to bed. Fortunately, my husband is the former and I'm the latter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Well, okay, I've taken a handful of cold baths and one cold shower in my adult life. Very against the cold. Even in LA in the summer. But that's what makes it an issue -- balancing the temporary intense discomfort, or the lingering disquiet.

Spongebath, or lots of kettling.

I'd sponge bathe with water heated on the stove before willingly going 3 days between showers.

I don't shower every day anymore, and I kind of love it. I think it's better for my skin and hair, too.

Bath before bedtime. If I don't take a bath before I go to bed, I have (more) problems falling asleep.

I, too, think the world will not collapse if you skip a day of showering. Especially if hypothermia is a distinctly possible byproduct of said showering.

I also think warding with pickles would be wicked cool. And I'm going to go home now since it's finally past 6 pm and I can remove one thing from my list of things I don't understand.

Oh sure. But I'd sponge bathe with stove-heated water WAY before I'd take an icy cold shower in the winter.
