What is your socially unacceptable guilty indulgence? (feddit.uk)

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...

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
