How often do you take showers? Once a day? Twice a day? Once every two days? How about 5 to 6 times a month? Lately, it's been just that. The reasons come down to these (in order of their impact with the worst on the top):

1. My parents say water costs 10¢ per gallon about a year ago and 13¢ per gallon now. I've asked them 3 times and they have said this with consistancy. The shower head says that it gives out 2.5 gallons of water per minute, which seems to be about right. My showers often last 30 minutes (± 5 minutes). Given this information, that's $9.75 per shower. Adding in 5 showers a month, that's a manageable $48.75 per month on the water bill for me taking a shower. If I were to take a shower every day, this comes out to well over $200 and my parents cannot afford that well so I'm helping by reducing water consumption by taking showers less frequently. I'm very rarely around anyone or go anywhere, so it doesn't matter that much. I do take showers just before going out somewhere, however.
2. Serious waste of time. 30 minutes for the shower and 15 minutes to find clothes and get dried off is what I need for taking showers. What can I do with an extra 37.5 minutes per day (an average) or 18.75 hours per month? A lot. In 18 3/4 hours, I was able to create an entire set of mountains for my 2D game. In 18 3/4 hours, I could write a very long document, three times longer than the document about my school history (about 320 kilobytes of plain text from HTML formatting). In 18 3/4 hours, I could watch about 19 educational TV shows to further gain knowledge (or an extra 30-minute show every day with a bonus 30-minute show every 4 days). That's a lot of time! It's a serious advantage as it frees up all this time that could be spent on more worthwhile things like education or working on a project.
3. Low compatibility. My compatibility, even factoring out the waste of time part, is still below 400 thus a dislike. Adding in the waste of time factor, it's near 130 and adding in everything, it's near 110. This dangerously low compatibility gives me almost no motive for doing it. 130 is about 15 times worst than neutral and 110 is around 22 times worse than neutral just to give you an idea. There'd have to be a reason 22 times better than neutral to make me more likely to take more frequent showers.

I'd probably be dead if i kept on taking music theory, not that there's anything wrong with being dead. I'm not trying to discriminate against the dead so don't quote me on that. When I called John Ritter an uncle tom flesh bag that wasn't to be misconstrued. There's a difference between satire and wit I think you'll be pleasantly surprised

But really if Johnson and Johnson can commit to the baby shampoo formula then why doesn't all shampoo promote no more tears? Oh really fool really conditioner is better etc.
