What is your socially unacceptable guilty indulgence?
Mine is plain/lightly salted Doritos/tortilla chips dipped/scraped in unsalted butter.
I'm now wondering whether this is a little too specific of a question and I just really needed somewhere to get this off my chest...

I know. But... I don't know how to not do it and either not make my bed smell or smell at the office.
Taking 2-3 showers a day when you’re working up a sweat isn’t killing the environment, don’t feel bad about it. If you’re worried about your personal water consumption then reducing the amount of meat/dairy you eat and not participating in fast fashion will do more than never showering again ever would.
Ah then I still regularly wear the clothes I bought 10 years ago, patched armpit holes and all!
Alright, you get your shower pass. I haven't figured out how to keep my clothes in good condition for over a year and a half. Maybe its the weather where I live or the way I use my clothes but they never last that long - either they tear or they stain, if not from anything major, just from my sweat.
if you've just bathed before going to bed, why do you need two baths before work in order to not smell? this sounds like there's some kind of underlying medical condition lol
I'm not the other guy, but for me, I need a shower in the morning no matter what, otherwise I can't wake up and I don't feel physiologically ready to start the day. Also I feel sticky in the morning, because my skin gets oily.
Well the morning shower I sometimes skip, but if it's an especially cold day and the house is freezing, then I might sneak one in just to get enough motivation to leave the house
Couldn’t you compromise and take a shower in the morning instead? Certainly a lot less water used than drawing a whole bathtub. Also it’s quicker to do when in a hurry. (Though I would probably skip the first shower if I’m just going to go work out and shower again right afterwards anyway)
It's not a whole bathtub.
You let the water run for a minute, and then stop so that it's just a 3-inch base to get warm in.
You watch some anime, read some articles, do something with your mind for 15 minutes.
Once the water starts to get cold, you let it run for a minute, and then stop again so that it's about 6 inches deep.
Wait 15 minutes, repeat, wait 15 minutes, repeat. After about an hour, the water is just covering your groin. I don't know how many litres that is, but it's not very much.
Compare that to a 15 minute shower where all the water and heat goes immediately down the drain.
Fair enough, that sounds reasonable
But I am amazed you can do an hour long bath in the morning, I would probably fall right back asleep lol
Bath at night
Do you live in a very humid place?
Not particularly
