  • I need a good shower.

    I love taking a shower! I bathe two times a day most of the days in a given week. I know there are people who bathe two times daily and there are those who dont bathe daily.

    As you can tell, I am very picky about the shower-head. More like the Seinfeld episode where they go out looking for a nice shower-head. I replaced an old shower head cause it was acting all weird, with a brand new (not an expensive one tho) shower-head. It worked beautifully for the first two weeks or so...and now its back to acting like my old shower-head. If I unscrew it and bang it on the wall a few times, it starts working well for a few days. I've experienced the same at my old rental place where I replaced two shower heads and both started acting the same way.

    My room-mate used to ask "What's your obsession with these shower-heads. A shower is a shower." So, just wondering what level of obsession other people have with the shower/shower-heads.

    Sounds like you have hard water. Take off the head and clean it out, or use a stiif brush and scrub the faceplate of the shower.
    Come and get one in the yarbles, if you have any yarbles, you yunick jelly thou!

      Get one that has a long hose that detaches. The women love them.:ROTF: And they do work really well for those hard to reach places.
      I am a true ass set to this board.

          This is a very smart piece of fett-wisdom.

            I cant live with out a detatchable shower head. I generally alter the ones that I buy so the water preasure is higher. They generally have a piece of plastic in them that governs the water preasure. I like the preasure to be to the point that you could remove paint off a wall. I remove that part and they work great.

              Yeah, I agree wholeheartedly. My shower is good for that, but when I'm visiting my folks... grr.. they have the feeblest of shower pressure.

                That's a good idea. Now, I remember... In my previous place, I had asked the maintenance guy to remove it. I'll give that a shot.

                  Try a Golden one. Plenty of water, don't eat any asparagus, put down a plastic sheet, happy days.
                  So I woke up,rolled over and who was lying next to me? Only Bonnie Langford!

                  I nearly broke her back

                    Eeewww

                    Detachable heads seem popular in Europe.

                    Shower heads don't thrill me. Whatever works.

                    I think I've discovered the source of the California water shortage

                          I have a very old Teledyne that I like so much, that when the plastic threaded part split, I epoxied it back together and rethreaded it. I tried two new ones, no way they match that old one.
                          And, it had a low-flow restrictor in it. Removed that, and life is good.

                            True Story:

                            I once knew a girl who could only reach orgasm if she was being butt-fucked standing up in a shower. I was like the Man From Fucking Atlantis until I got tired of her, I was developing prune-like skin. God knows what her Mum & Dad thought about a scruffy git like me turning up at their house and "forcing" their little angel to have a nice long shower. Eeh, the things teenage hormones will make you do, I must have had balls of steel.

                            Oh, and Absolut, I really hate to tell you this, and it will probably give you nightmares, but you KNOW that any female who spends an hour in a shower has probably got a squeaky clean man-in-a-canoe, don't you? Yep, thought so, sorry. Women and shower heads, the original love story before the invention of the Rampant Rabbit.
                            So I woke up,rolled over and who was lying next to me? Only Bonnie Langford!

                              I used to have this problem too before we installed a water softening system... Just take the shower head off and soak it in a bowl of vinegar for a while. It will dissolve the hard water build up. You have to do this every so often depending on how hard your water is. Hope this helps.
