Washcloths and Showers

[EarlJam]

When you shower, do you use a washcloth?

[DevilAlumna]

Exchange soap for "Dove Body Wash" or some other good smelling, lathery goo.

Exchange washcloth with "meshy/spongy ball thingy that hangs on a string."

I think the technical term is "pouf"
:p

I am actually a big fan of Bath & Body Work's body washes followed by the same scent body cream... Cucumber Melon is what I have going on right now.
... well not RIGHT now, I am not DBR'ing in the shower!

hmm... waterproof laptop... now THAT's an idea!

Ok, back to thesis writing... :(

I don't know what you would call this but I use one of these (http://www.amazon.com/Salux-Nylon-Japanese-Beauty-Cloth/dp/B000EZS3O6) with soap. Tried body wash, didn't like it.

Earl, I recommend these http://www.tanisinc.com/hand_utility.php and lye soap. :D

Interesting timing. While I never (well, hardly ever, close enough to never to choose that answer) use a wash cloth, I did buy a back brush yesterday and used it for the first time this morning. I chose the one with the poof instead of bristles because it had a longer handle, and it felt really good on my back. More of a back-scratcher than a scrubber.

I'm starting to get concerned about your fascination with our grooming habits, especially those that occur in the shower.

Just sayin'.

Sad thing is, that's the least worrisome of all of EJ's obsessions.

That would hurt and I'd be a bloody mess. My days of bloody bathtub experiences are long over!

Well, my ultimate goal is to have people associate me, EarlJam, with good feelings (preferably early in the morning).

Showering in the morning? Think of EarlJam.

Washing / grooming your hair? Think of me, EarlJam

Eating a delicious breakfast / dinner? Ruminate on........EarlJam

Getting intimate, or extremely intimate with your significant other? Think of.....um, baseball.

You forgot "I never shower".

[colchar]

I never used to use a washcloth because I used soap and thought that the cloth was unneccessary. Now, however, I've switched to using bodywash so I use a washcloth with it.

I can't believe I actually read and voted in this thread. Some posters will stoop to anything. What next? Flannel sheets vs regular sheets? Regular shampoo vs conditioning shampoo? Bar soap vs liquid soap/shower gel? ARRGGHH. I have probably just given the Earl of Jam fodder for another 5-10 polls and 100-200 more posts.

[DevilAlumna]

You forgot "robe vs. wrapped towel vs. b-day suit" and perhaps, "quilted vs. single-ply," or even, "standing or sitting." :D

(Hey, it's a long off-season....)

[ghost]

Or how about brush your teeth before or after breakfast?

[colchar]

Both.

brushing my teeth has to be absolutely the first thing I do in the morning, and the last thing I do before going to sleep. I'm too lazy to brush after lunch, but I'm actually considering it too.

You have to admit though, the results (at least to me), are usually interesting. The reason for this poll would be controversial if I told all the details. A few years ago, someone made the accusation that one segment of people don't use washcloths while another segment of the population does. I don't (unless I'm showering after a tennis match, or lawn work, etc.). So I wondered if I was alone - if I should take offense. I didn't and it seems I'm not alone.

I always smell good at work though, or out in public. Unless I'm doing a dirty job (lawn work, plumbing, knocking off a neighbor, etc.) I like to stay quite clean.

Don't get cocky. You can't smell yourself, after all.

Sometimes you can - and that's usually BAD.

But I often have people come up to me and say, "EarlJam, you smell terrific!"

..........I can smell you up here in the mountains!! I'm a believer!!
