How often/When do you shower?

    A guy i know only showers in the evening and not in the morning so he can sleep in for an extra 10 mins. I find it a small bit weird. Surely u'd be a small bit sweaty from being under sheets for 7 or so hours. Do many people shower in the evening instead of the morning?

    I'd have to have a shower every morning before going to work. It helps wake me up. Then most days a shower in the evening after the gym or soccer, but I couldn't survive without a shower in the morning.

    Just wondering how smelly is the average boardsie?

    Every morning. Evening too if I'm heading out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 654 ✭✭✭sillyputty


    I shower every morning even if i'm running late, if i don't shower i just feel icky. I worked with a guy who only showered once a week so needless to say in the summer it got a little fragrant around mid week.

    Every morning to wake me up and if i'm going out that night or need to relax i'll have another shower. There's no way i'd leave the house in the morning without a shower.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 805 ✭✭✭Mmcd


    I often shower in the evening for the extra 10min in the morning - otherwise I know I wont be able to force myself to get up and would be afraid Id be too late for one!

    Every morning, evening if I'm going out
    Also couldn't leave the house in the morning without having showered first, eugh


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 20,366 Mod ✭✭✭✭RacoonQueen


    Every morning and most evenings after my run/workout. I don't think anyone I work with showers in the morning, they're always harping on about how they get up at 7:15...we start work at 8.

    I don't get how people can just get out of bed, get dressed and go to work. What about your shower, making lunch, cup of tea, breakfast, sitting down in front of Sky Sports News to see what pressing matters arose whilst you slept? I just don't get how people can get up and get out of the house in 15 minutes, don't like rushing me.

    Shower and shampoo every morning, short bath before bed every night.

    If I didn't shower in the morning before work I'd feel yucky all day. I also shower after work when I change out of my work clothes (trousers and shirt). Surely most people sweat a little after a days work. I like to think a shower after work draws a line under the work part of the day and starts a new part.

    I think I have a mild touch of OCD and that could explain it :D

    I don't sweat anymore than average but still think it's important to not let your smell affect those who do bother to wash. I have sympathy for those who sweat alot but not those who do nothing about it.

    Maybe that's harsh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 581 ✭✭✭Princessa


    I have to have a shower before i get dressed in the morning or i just dont feel clean going outside id be paranoid that everybody would be smelling me. Lol. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 321 ✭✭dollybird09


    I shower every morning, then again after the gym and if I'm going out I'll have another cos showering in the gym isnt the same as showering at home....

    A normal day would be 2 showers though....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    Weekly whether it's required or not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,225 ✭✭✭Ciaran500


    Can't beleive the amount people wash in here, only wash in the evening and then its not every day. Just depends on what I have been doing that day.

    Never had a single comment that I smelled bad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,213 ✭✭✭SoWatchaWant


    Twice a day, if going out. If I'm getting drunk and making a show of myself, I want people to say, "Well at least he smelt great"

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,956 ✭✭✭consultech


    Everyday in the morning, sometimes not on Saturdays (unless headin out)!

    Also: Lads, what's with us & the obsessive chest/torso washing? Surely once is enough??

    Herbal Essences too, or so I'm led to believe!




  • I always used to shower in the evening cos my b*tch of an ex flatmate decided mornings were 'her' time (we didn't have enough hot water for both of us and she'd get up at the crack of dawn). Don't see anything wrong with it, tbh. It's not like I sweat buckets in my sleep. Now I usually shower in the morning but if I need to get up early or I'm in a hurry I don't bother until the evening. Don't see the problem tbh! I use deodorant and don't do sport, I don't stink! No way am I getting up before 7 for a shower.

    Who's going to tell a large smelly man from Lucan that he smells bad?


    Is that you in the avatar by the way?:P

    He speaks the truth:cool:

    I shower when I feel dirty. Sometimes I can easily get away without showering
    for 2 or 3 days. Mind you, I always practice basic hygiene practice every morning.
    Remember folks, compulsive washing = profit ! *for loreal that is*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,748 ✭✭✭tony1kenobi


    I shower in the morning but I don't wash my balls.

    When I get to work I wash my balls in the kettle.

    Then I make everyone tea.

    Then I go into the bathroom,jerk off, then wash my balls again in the sink.

    Every 2nd or 3rd day in winter (for hair washing). Once a week full shower. Unless I've done some heavy exercise or spilled something horrible on myself.
    You really don't get sweaty/dirty if you live in a cold house (11 degrees tops in winter, usually 9).

    Every day once spring kicks in coz it gets warmer again.

    Watch your diet people, it is amazing how much more and worse you smell if you eat crap.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,565 ✭✭✭jaffa20


    How do people have the time to shower in the morning?

    It's valuable coffee and email checking time before going to work. It takes me at least 15 minutes to have a shower and then there's the drying. It's just too cold when you get out of the shower in the morning.

    I try to have a bath every night and that's about it. At the weekend, i'd take a morning shower before going out.

    Jeez, some boardsies are over hygenic me thinks.

    I have the misfortune to use a pool with mixed communal showers.
    Having to notice obsessive soaping is just about my least favorite thing ever. :mad:

    Pretty much every morning, except the odd Sunday if I'm just gonna be going from couch to fridge/toilet back to couch all day! :D
    My boyfriend is obsessive about it though. He showers at least twice a day, but often 3 or 4 times! If he's staying in my house he showers in the morning before heading home, where he has another shower because his is a power shower and he reckons mine doesn't get him clean enough..??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,160 ✭✭✭✭banshee_bones


    Shower in the mornings and or after the gym

    I imagine the breath would be the big issue. I've never tried sh1t eating myself.

    Do you really need this to be explained? :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 165 ✭✭Cherryvega


    I always have a shower first thing in the morning, another when I get home from college/work, and I always always always have one before bed.

    :D

    I blame lush. Who doesn't want to smell that good all the time?! :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Holsten


    Hardly ever, only when I REALLY stink.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 68 ✭✭MadelineNYC


    Quick, slightly cool one in the AM to help me wake up. A longer, very hot one before bed to help my muscles relax so I can fall asleep quickly.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 13,425 ✭✭✭✭Ginny


    How do people not have time to shower?
    Water on at 6:45, in the shower 20 mins later, I always have a shower in the morning, and if I go to the gym or work out I'd have another one afterwards.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 584 ✭✭✭hallelujah

    They put it whole way up their bums??
