Get the Go commit deathpacito mug.A tiled room, usually adjacent to a locker room, but sometimes constituting an open shower area within a locker room, containing multiple showering positions, usually beneath numerous showerheads affixed to the walls at intervals of about every four feet, and one or more floor drains. The showering positions are sometimes situated around a shower pole or a shower column each of which would have between 4 - 6 showerheads affixed around each column. Communal showers are designed so that a large group of people may shower simultaneously so as to save time and avoid delay. Because they do not contain any dividers or shower stalls, communal showers do not permit for any modesty where the users of such a facility would be showering together simultaneously in the nude. Communal showers are usually designed to accomodate between 10 and 40 users simultaneously, and are usually found in institutional settings, such as at a gymnasium, swimming pool, fitness studio, high school, university, professional sporting venue or in a prison. In the United States, communal showers are segregated by gender, but at some facilities in Europe, particularly at a sauna, both genders may shower communally at the same time.
After the swim meet, the entire team would strip out of their wet racing suits in the locker room and then shower together in the nude in the communal shower to rinse off the chlorine from the swimming pool.

The term has its origins in the sharing of grazing land in a given community, called "the commons", in Britain. An individual farmer could increase his or her profits by using more of the commons than others. The other farmers would then follow suite, leading to the overexploitation and destruction of that land.
In its modern usage, the phrase is used as a metaphor to the above, referring to the exploitation of a common resource. In game theory it is used as an example of how, in a given situation, every individual can choose to do what is best for their own interests and still produce the worst sum result for the whole. See also: prisoner's dilemna.
The most common and effective way to negotiate this problem is private ownership. Another way is heavy regulation and the imposition of sanctions on violators.

Get the tragedy of the commons mug.Commando-Style (or to go commando) is the act of not wearing underwear under one's outer clothing. This phenomenon is also referred to as freeballing (in the case of men not wearing underwear) and freebuffing (in the case of women not wearing underwear).
Commando-Style has its many advantages such as the comfort it provides since the restrictive and tight sensation of underwear is eliminated (view is relative to the one doing it), there is greater mobility for the genitalia, and it’s also recognized with playful sexual behavior.
Not wearing underwear is said to have certain benefits. Wearing no underwear while sleeping can have significant benefits to the vulva. It is also said that tight underwear decreases sperm count in men, and it is recommended to wear more loose fitting clothing around the genitals.
