An Open Letter to Shower Kid

I heard through the grape vine that some guy on my floor has threatened to quit showering until they restore all the showers to working condition.

Disclaimer: Like any DC college student, I love me a good protest. Hence, I have decided to completely overreact to this. I don't think any of my lovely neighbors really plan to quit showering anytime soon, but I heard a rumor of a boycott and sincerely hope that it is only a rumor. As a former freshman I have been subjected -against my will- to quite a bit of Nasty Dorm Stank (that's its chemical name), and am choosing to take this opportunity to caution anyone against boycotting cleanliness. Also, I found this super cute picture of a hedgehog and decided to seize the moment :)

See this cute little critter? His innocent pseudo-smile and eyes full of wonder? You, too, could know what it feels like to be this marvelous hedgehog. If only you took a shower.

The Common Room Rumor Mill has made it clear that one of the maintenance workers came to fix a broken shower handle, removed the handle, and left. (It's very funny, until you start to smell.) Your handle-less shower, I suppose, probably looks a bit prison-ish and would make a good "time out" for people who need to chillax. (I'm looking at you, Guy Who Spent Ten Minutes Screaming About Pants. My door is by the stairs, I hear all kinds of crazy business!)

Boys, I bet that waiting for a shower or going to another floor for a shower is a total pain. But you will never know that pain unless you actually go in to take a shower! So I implore you, grab yourself a bar of soap, and wash that funkyness away.

Sincerely,

A Concerned Citizen of Your Dorm
