If you take a shower 5 times per week, you spend about 35 hours a year in there. That’s a lot of standing around naked under the water. Recently, creative mastermind Chaz Hutton (previously here and here) decided to sum up his experiences in the shower in a comic, and it’s too real.
Appropriately titled “Life in the Shower,” the series takes a closer look at what’s happening and what we’re up to when cleansing ourselves.
“I lived in a place in the UK for a year that only had a bath, and so after a bath or two every day for a year I’m kinda done with baths,” Chaz told Bored Panda. “Give me a shower any day.”
“Ideally, [a good shower is] one that has an amazing view coupled with the risk that someone might accidentally look the other way through the same window.”
Chaz admitted he has experienced all of the moments featured in the series. “I came up with the idea for this comic while having a shower and thinking about how I had no ideas for any comics.” Scroll down to check out his stuff and let us know what happens in your shower. If you’re brave enough, of course.
P.S. “Life in the Shower” is also now available as a poster over at Prinstachaaz!
It misses the "when you're singing in the shower" one. Also, "when you're at a hotel kinda place and the shower head is too low and unadjustable".
For those with long hair: trying to shake off stray hairs stuck to your fingers, finally succumbing to plastering it to the wall of shower lol these are all quite good !

Screaming because the soap gets in your eyes and you force to close them but then you can't see the ghost/murderer/monster so you scream even harder.
And then you down the rest of the shower with your eyes open and refusing to face away from the shower entrance. All the while going thru how you are going to escape whilst butt naked and if fighting naked is an option.

Yep, I admit it, I pee in the shower too! It's one of the best feelings in the world, next to a good orgasm. :-) Upvote me if you agree!!
Load More Replies...Yes to all of them! Especially the one pretending to be an actor shooting a shower scene! :D
We need that look of unadulterated shock that your cat gives you the first time they see you showering. My rescue was 8 months old and feral, so she had never seen a shower before, the look was priceless!
Misses the one where you just get up a good shampoo lather on your hair and the shower goes stone cold
I admit, wife freaked out I showed her the shower and toilet drain go to the same place. Still said it was gross asked her where she washed her a*s, still gross. Whatever I'm not getting out of the shower to pee.

Sometimes I have to travel for work, so for me that means having to wake up super early to make a flight. I'm a person who showers in the morning, but it's usually at, like, 7 AM. If it's 4 or 5 AM, doesn't it seem like the water coming down in the shower is extra loud, somehow? I don't know how you'd draw that, though.
Agreed, so much harder to adjust the temperature too, creatures of habit, I guess

I love folding my arms to collect a big wallop of water and as it's overflowing I let it splash on the shower floor! YAASSS!!
I thought I was the only one who did that. Oddly satisfying.

Several of those made me smile as they hit home. What about when someone turns on the hot tap so the water goes cold unexpectedly.
When its romantic to have a shower together ;) .. I agree .. I am always the cold one! Never do that! Never as good as it looks in films :)
The last ones me but instead of forgetting a towel I ALWAYS forget my bath shoes xD
Where we live e you are actually better off getting shampoo in your eyes than you are getting the super chlorinated water in your eyes. The shampoo actually burns a lot less than the water burns!
When you haven't fine tuned the temp yet and step in. Worth two drawings; one for too cold and one for trip to the burn unit.
Burns on the bottom, head too hi for the shower head, small space&forgetting the soap in a strange shower, done all of these things
When you are in a hotel and they only have this big like rain shower on the ceiling and you actually don't want wash your hair.
what about when you are in a shower with low water pressure and it would be easier to pour a jug of water over your head?
35 hours a year means about 5,5 minutes a day. Isn’t that a bit short? Asking for a friend...
For some, depends on where you're from I suppose. Some places like to keep it short to save water.

Sowering together works for me and bf tho, we both prefer to shower together now, you just need good shower for that
I'm not sure I get the one about 'when you accidentally watch the news again,' other to assume that doing so is depressing because we live in such a f*ctup world, when it really could be such an amazing place, with all of our advancements in technology and medicine. Too many killings, too many terrible crimes...
And stripping their skin and hair of its natural oils? That means your body will increase its oil production to make up for lost oils, meaning you WILL have to shower more often because of oily hair/skin. Showering every day is actually not necessary unless you work in filthy conditions every day. Even 2-3 times a week is plenty.
