Ukuchamela eshaweni kungahle kube yimfihlo egcinwe kahle yaseMelika-akekho okhuluma ngakho, kepha ngokusobala cishe konke ngokwethu siyakwenza, ngokusho kocwaningo lwakamuva olwenziwe u-Angie's List ngemikhuba yokugeza. Ingabe ukudonsa okungenakuvinjelwa kwamanzi agijimayo? Ingabe umuzwa oqabulayo? Ingabe kusebenza kahle nje okuningi? Konke okungenhla? Kwazi bani! Kodwa cishe amaphesenti angu-80 abantu abadala (okungukuthi abantu sebedlule isiteji sokuqeqesha amabhodwe) bathatha i-tinkle ngaphansi kokufafaza kweshawa.

Akukona okukhulu njengoba kuzwakala. Kuliqiniso ukuthi ipipi lethu ligcwele amagciwane, kodwa akunjalo kunolunye uketshezi lwethu lomzimba, olufana nomjuluko ne-snot, olugezwa amanzi nsuku zonke, uPhilip Werthman, MD, udokotela womchamo kanye nomqondisi weSikhungo Semithi Yokuzala Yabesilisa e-United States. ILos Angeles, CA, isitshele. Futhi uyayihlanza ngakho-ke akufani nokuthi uyangena kuyo, njengokuthi, uma ulunguze kubhavu oshisayo-okungekho muntu ozihloniphayo oyoke akwenze, akunjalo? Ngaphandle kwalokho, noGwyneth Paltrow udumise izinzuzo ezimangazayo zepelvic peeing in the shower.

Kepha uma ukubheka phansi umlenze wakho akuyona into yakho, akukho ukukhathazeka. Ucwaningo luthole ukuthi senza ezinye izinto eziningi ezijabulisayo eshaweni. Isibonelo, cishe isigamu sethu sicula eshaweni, kepha oyedwa kwabahlanu uya nomphumela ogcwele we-karaoke ngokuletha isiphuzo futhi. Futhi ikota yethu ithanda ukwenza imisebenzi eminingi ngokuxubha amazinyo noma ukunakekela ezinye izinto zokulungisa ubuhle ngenkathi sishubile. (Psst... Senzela iCold for Cold Showers.)

Uma kuziwa endleleni esigeza ngayo, abesilisa nabesifazane bahlukene kahle ngokulinganayo, amadude athanda indwangu yokugeza engenalutho kuyilapho abesifazane benamathela kuma-loofas noma izipontshi zemvelo. Amaphesenti ayishumi ethu asebenzisa nje izandla zethu, indlela imvelo ehlose ngayo. Kepha iphesenti elilodwa labaphendulile lithe bazokhuhla kuphela ngenkathi begqoke amagilavu ​​e-latex noma enjoloba. Obani...bangobani laba? Ingabe bafaka i-tile grout yabo ngenkathi i-conditioner yabo ingena? (Ngomcabango wesibili, lowo akuwona umqondo omubi.)

Into eyodwa engekho kithi eyenzayo, noma kunjalo, ukugeza. Abacwaningi bathola ukuthi abantu baseMelika abangaphezu kwamaphesenti angu-90 bathi bayakuzonda ukucambalala ukuze bahlanzeke. Bangeze ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi yingakho amahhotela amasha engasawufaki amapayipi ekamelweni lakho nokuthi kungani ama-remodel akhetha imvula emikhulu kunaleyo yokugeza yendabuko. (Uphuthelwa ukuzama lezi Zinyathelo Eziyi-10 kuBhati Lakho Lasezulwini Elikhulu Kakhulu.)

Noma ngabe wenza kanjani, into ebaluleke kakhulu ukuthi sonke siyabahle futhi sihlanzekile. Uma ujabule kancane okwamanje (noma ukhipha esinyeni), kungcono nakakhulu!
