Colonial Shower
A deeply humbling, character-building experience in which your hot water heater betrays you, forcing you to abandon all modern dignity and bathe using bowls, pots, or a sad plastic container—like a disgraced aristocrat in 1776.
Typically involves standing half-naked in your own bathroom, questioning your life choices while pouring lukewarm water over yourself one cup at a time and pretending this is somehow “fine.”
Bonus points if you whisper things like, “This builds resilience,” while shivering.
