Today, I had to have a discussion with my 54-year-old mother about showering. She thinks it's perfectly OK to shower only once a week. FML

If you're referring to 1 he's trying to say that OP needs a new mother.

You can buy a new mother for $24.95 on Craigslist.

Nah, I read it in Randall's voice. Just like the honey badger, OP's mother just doesn't give a shit.

You say that like she's elderly. She's only 54!

25- 54 is not elderly! You have to be 55 to be a senior citizen! 70 is the beginning of elderly. And that's slightly pushing it. There are many 70-year-olds who are still actively working and going to amusement parks and doing all the 'hip things' them 'teenie-boppers' are doing. Point is.. 54 is not, in the least bit, old.

Okay, not bathing everyday doesn't mean you smell bad people. -_- I bathe minimally once a week and probably three times at most. I'm perfectly fine, no one in my house complaints(and trust me, my parents are the first to complain about ANYTHING) and my boyfriend is perfectly fine with it and doesn't find me gross.

Same. Once a week minimum (once didn't shower in like two weeks... but I didn't have to go outside and I was really lazy). No complaints either. And of course you use deodorant... like all the time.

12, homophobic pig. Nah. I'm just kidding. But you do have to look at all aspects of the situation.... I find it funnier that way.

Dude, you know I only shower once a week, because I don't alot, but I still wash my arm pits and privates nearly every day at the sink, and trust me, it's fine. I for example live in a house where you have to make a fire to have hot water for showering, and you don't want to do that more than once a week

I think I'd rather light a fire for hot water or take a cold shower than go a week without showering.
