I always forget about my naval. When I was younger I would never wash behind my ears.
Sometimes I forget to rinse the shampoo out of my hair and then I have to turn on the water again.
Back of my neck! I always have a shower cap on on non shampoo days and I usually miss my neck.
Non shampoo days?
Supposedly shampooing every day strips your hair of natural oils so many people will not wash their hair at all on some days or just wash with conditioner aka “cowash.”
I shower every two or three days.
Also works - similar reasons. Soap every day can hurt skin more than letting it do it’s on thing. But I absolutely adore showers - I just prefer to try and let my hair oils do their thing until appearing professional forces me to shampoo.
Me penis.
Ahahahaha! Just kidding
Inside my mouth. I mostly wash the outside of my body.
mostly?
I like to soak hot (non-pressurized) water into my ears, and then let the now-molten earwax flow out once I straighten up.
I also don’t own a bidet, so I use the shower telephone to powerwash my asshole. If I happen to fart during that process, well, call it the poor man’s enema.
That’s why you get a bidet! With a bit more pressure they work like an enema. Just relax, fill up, purge, repeat. It’s great to combat mild constipation. Prevents butt slime - when you go and the last bit of poop refuses to come out, then slowly leaks out as you walk around.
There are cheap $20 ones that work fine. That area of your body isn’t particularly sensitive to cold water.
Sometimes you just got a gnarly pee.
You forget your naval and I forget my soldiers
Here’s a lil Head & Soldiers™ for ya!
No soldier left behind.
Thanks for the laugh
Anything for you 😘
I never fail to take care of my little soldier in the shower
Bottom of my feet. I’m really klutzy and the slippery floor is already a bit of a hazard for me without adding soap to the mix.
I shove my foot into bottom edge of the bath and lean my hip against the wall bending my body. Lift one foot and scratch the fuck out of it with my fingernails. Switch and repeat.
This doesn’t work if your shower isn’t in a bath.
They do make none slip bathmats you can use in the tub to reduce the chances of slipping
I assume they are washed by gravity.
You stand on water. Should be enough.
except water doesn’t move all those nasty water insoluble bacterias and grossness that soap makes more hydrophilic
The fuck you doing with your feet that you need them to be sterile
not having fungus
Do you already have underlying fungus issues? My guess would be that most people, myself included, don’t get overly crazy with washing their feet – some water and soap - yet don’t develop feet fungus either…
but u just said u wash ur feet this guy said he doesnt wash his feet at all
These are the stinky feet havers, point and laugh!
Jesus?
This is some of the whitest shit lol
My legs and my feet, to be fair i mostly focus on my armpits and private parts
Legs in particular get a lot less attention from me in the winter as mine tend to dry out and become itchy even with moisturization.
My belly button
My legs, the shower is small and I am tall so it’s a lot of work to actually soap them up properly. Usually I only bother maybe every second or third shower.
I use a very small plastic stool I stole from my daughter when her toddler outgrew it. Absolute game changer for washing legs. My wife loves it too for shaving her legs.
You mean put a foot on it I guess. At first I imagined you crouching down on it
You need some sort of stool to step into with the leg you’re trying to wash, makes a huge difference
Yeah, armpits… forget them from time to time.
No worries, you’re perfectly normal 👍.
Signed: The guy with ADHD… probably… not diagnosed… have no idea 🤷… maybe it’s the drugs…
Having been there; see if you can get a diagnosis. The medication is way cheaper and allowed me to stop self medicating completely, which has all sorts of other benefits.
No one diagnoses that here, I live in a fucked up country. Have to go abroad for that, but currently, no money for that, have a small kid 🤷.
One option would be to buy Vyvanse on the darknet and stick to a small dose of 30mg/day for at least 8 weeks before you change anything. You don’t need a doctor to tell you that and it will improve your life immensely with very few minor side effects. Also likely cheaper than whatever you’re currently self-medicating with and the other hidden costs of living with undiagnosed ADHD.
But it’s probably illegal, so you know, don’t do it.
Hm… is that thing expensive on black market? Cuz I can’t spend too much currently 😔.
I take Escetalopramme currently, 20mg, that’s for my depression and bursts of rage… I didn’t used to have a short fuse, but raising a kid, especially a stubborn one, is not easy, so I started having them when he didn’t listen. Things are good now, haven’t had them in a while and I feel much better, more relaxed and just have more nerves for stupid things that surround me every day… I don’t take them as seriously, just go “meeeh, whatever”. So it’s not bad, but focus is a problem sometimes. Though I do have better focus now, my guess is, thanks to the drug, I would like to improve on that.
If you’re already on medication, especially for psychological issues, disregard my entire comment.
You definitely do need a doctor to advise you on (possibly very dangerous) interactions between meds.Yeah, that is true…
I’ll see if I can do it online somehow, pay someone to diagnose me, I really can’t afford to go abroad now 😔.
Not a doctor obviously, but I’ve been taking escitalopram and vyvanse together as prescribed by my doc. Which should be where it is coming from, honestly, considering it’s basically diet speed lol
I got a whole bottle of Vyvanse once and holy shit it was a great couple months, never felt so productive in my life.
You might be able to find something tele-medicine related. I’m bout familiar with your specifics, but thought I’d mention it.
Good luck friend. The struggle is real.
Yeah, that might be an option… thanks for the advice 👍.
On weekends I don’t use deodorant so in the shower my armpits get a refresh.
I only use deodorant when going out or to events, which is pretty close to never nowadays 🤣.
I’d love to be able to do this but I’d have armpit stains down to my bellybutton after 5 minutes. Hyperhidrosis is… fun?
Yeah, that is a problem, agreed. No choice in that case 🤷.
Just the occasional MTG tournament, eh?
i do it cuz of the gathering part 🤣🤣🤣
My hands.
My naval! I’m very thorough when showering - I absolutely hate feeling dirty. But I think the ol’ belly button gets overlooked because of how concave it is.
I used to be better about it, but the whole chose of getting it all opened and unfolded just to get my sponge in there in all the nooks and crannies it has for whatever reason, then rolling it back up and folding it into its pouch, all to have like what three, four maybe six hours before it starts smelling again. It’s just not worth it.
Not that I just let it ruin everyone’s day, mind you. I’ve always got ice breakers or altoids and at least one, often two chip clips on me at all times.
Now, I don’t want to alarm you, but it sounds like you have a rather unique situation if you must unfold your naval, and that it smells after 6 hours from washing it.
This thread has made me realize how thorough I am about washing. I use a washcloth and the first things I scrub are the backs of my ears and neck, then arms, pits, torso, back, legs, tops of feet, then for last I do butt, crotch, bottoms of feet and between my toes. Then I ditch the washcloth and with just my hands I wash my bellybutton and privates.
So I guess if I missed anything it would be between my fingers and the backs of my hands.
Has to be my back. It’s hard to reach even with a back brush because of degenerative issues in my shoulder joints. I tried one of those scrubbers with the two ropes, but it’s hard to control. Need a bigger shower so my wife can wash it for me…and get my back while she’s at it!
mount the backbrush to one of the walls then scrub your back against it like a bear 😁😂
Dunno if this is good or bad for you. But I recently switched shower gel and decided to properly scrub my back. BOOM! 2 days later my back is filled with acne. I bust about a dozen spots that are now large craters in my back.
I never had that problem when I just let it handle itself while using bar-soap.
They make a scrubby cloth that’s like 4 feet long.
Yeah that’s called a towel.
Yes and no. Salux/Goshi washcloth or towel. Interchangable really. But they are longer washcloths that have a scrubby or exfoliant surface. They are perfect to use to wash your back
No no it’s like for washing and it’s super scrubby, like a loofah almost but more scrubby.
A scrubber that adheres to the shower wall would be neat. Clean your back like a bear scratching an itch on a tree.
I typed out basically the same comment without having seen yours 👁️👄👁️
Hell yeah, collaborative invention 🤝
I’d prefer more of a car wash system https://youtu.be/DwVKC3FnVXY

I wonder if my insurance would pay for at least part of one of these? But I don’t think it would fit in my tiny shower.
The inside
Not always though…
Not so much cleaned … but thoroughly conditioned
