    If someone uses the bathroom while I'm in the shower abd flushes the toilet, the hot water goes away and is replaced with ICE

    Our shower used to be really crap, as it was wired to the kitchen or something, so if we had it on high everything would shut off in the kitchen aswell as the shower, and we'd have to shout for someone to turn the electricity back on.

    We got it sorted, though, and it's all re-wired so we can have it on high. It's fine now

    I have one of those really annoying showers that either go so hot it burns or like ice every time somebody else runs water in the house whilst its on. :kaocry2:

    Oh great. This is going to terrify me forever. :yuck:
    Oh my God, I'm not going to be able to turn my back on the shower wall for a week. Dude, I'm so sorry. I hope they didn't, like, jump up and start gnawing your face?

    I don't mind cold showers if it's by choice. If I'm forced to I will rage. PAIN SHARAGE

    It's horrible when you can't wash because of SHOWER FAILURE.

    I've had a sickness of sorts lately. Its got my whole body congested. My throat and lungs. Not just my head. So in desperation I took some Mucinex last night to try and clear it up. Then went to bed. Not a good idea. When you sleep mucous comes out your eyes. When you take mucinex and are completely stuffed up and go to sleep. Your eyes BLEED SNOT

    I woke up with my eyes wet and couldn't see. I went to wipe them. IT WAS GOOEY .... Not to mention it built up a ton of pressure around my eyes. They've been red puffy and tender all day :[

    You clear my stuffy head and I'll loan you my nice warm working shower
    Drink some hot water with honeys and lemons. Inhale Olbas oil. Put Olbas oil on your pillow to help you breathe, and lavender to help you sleep. Soup. Television. Quilt. Patience. PAIN SHARAGE

    The shower at my ma's is RLY bad in the winter. The thing is, it will go from hot-to-cold-to-hot-to-cold...repeatedly......WITHOUT you touching the temperature gauge. >__<

    Bad hot water heater???

    I had to laugh at my friends the first time they showered there. One friend was still drunk from the night before and had puke in his eye...he was in there saying 'There's schomthing in my eye! OH! Your shower sucksh! XDD;

    I had to fix our shower-head several times. So eventually I said fug it and just got a new one.

    I now need to get around to installing the hose part so it actually faces the way I point it (the existing head mount is too big so the water pressure pushes the head down. It sucks)

    i live in an apartment and the jerk behind me likes to flush the toilet repeatedly whenever i get into the shower, i think he just likes to hear me scream and cuss and probably finds it funny, though i think it would have stopped being funny 6 months ago...

    He's secretly in love with you and makes your life miserable through misguided feelings of affection >:}

    When I first came to Germany, I used to live in one of those rooms that are normally rented out to students. The shower was in common, and to get hot water you had to put € 0,50 in a slot and wait for enough hot water to accumulate.
    One morning I was working in the morning shift and I forgot to point my alarm clock for the morning, but I was dirty and couldn't go unshowered. COLD SHOWER AT 5.30 IN THE MORNING. Ouch! >.<

    Also it makes a ringing noise from the sound reverberating around the iron bathtub. I'm not joking.

    It also happens to be sheeny shiny brand new. I've nearly lost my voice screaming at the shower in the morning before.

    It is safe to say that SHOWERS WHICH FAIL are currently #1 on my list of pet peeves. When I have my own evil empire, I will hire a crack team of plumbers and distribute them throughout my lands. Hell, I'll set up plumbing acadamies and BREEDING PROGRAMMES to make an ultra plumber. Mario doesn't count. He never actually does any plumbing.

    Try living with someone for more than a year, and having a cold shower every single day because he gets a horrible, sick pleasure from running all the hot water in the house down the tub drain after he takes his shower.

    Such is the plight of the Penny Arcade creators My shower's great!

    Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain.

    Just found out that I don't HAV a shower in my new place! Luckily there is a shower attachment, so I can wash my hair.

    But I'm getting one ASAP.

    The only problem I have is when I get out of the shower and there are no towels anywhere to be found I don't know about anyone else, but I think it's REALLY cold if you have to leave the bathroom naked right after a shower.
