Look at you, waking up at 12 pm and wincing as you walk the distance from your space-heated room to the bathroom. Actually, you probably have central heating. Either way, you turn on your shower and crank it up so it's nice and hot. The bathroom gets all steamy during your 7 minute shower, fueld from burning noxious chemicals evaporating more potable water than a palestinian gets in a week so you can exfoliate your pours and not be uncomfortable for a few minutes while you wash the filth from your previous 9 hours sitting in an office chair off of your pale skin.

How many people here don't use the heater when they shower? How many people here could even bear to stand the thought of taking a shower without heated water? None of you, probably, and that's why you don't have the guts, the ability to deal with hardship, to actually make sacrifices in your life that make a difference. All you'd have to do is keep the hot water heater off, but you leave it on just so you can sit in your shower and wallow in your own decadence for a few minutes longer. You will never make a sacrifice, because you can't even sacrifice your spa minute every morning. You fucking disgust me.

I challenge anyone in LF to go for two weeks without a hot shower (or 10 showers, whatever comes first you disgusting ass goons). Any takers?

I don't feel the need to punish my body because some dudes somewhere I don't care about have a shitty life. Good luck on your secular flaggelation however, or more precisely the empty pretense thereof

back in the balkans most of the time the heater is hanging right next to you over the tub, so you have to turn it off whenever you want to shower unless you want to kill yourself due to faulty wiring
