i'm actually fucking pissed, I questioned her at every turn and she either ignored or dismissed it
now she's paying out to get an entire new bath fitted, shitty fucking plastic cladding for the walls because its "cheaper" and we're going without a shower for 2 weeks when it could have been solved in a day or two at half the cost because she didnt plan jack fucking shit

If you are over 18 why are you still living with your mommy?

If you're too old to know about the current housing market situation you shouldn't be allowed here.

Tell your mom the only acceptable bath is an Onsen. Then show her pictures. This will either throw her woman brain for a loop to where she either tries to put in a Onsen or buy a home in Japan.

Meanwhile get a gym membership (bonus if it has a pool) or find a truck stop to shower at. If neither of those are possible (overweight austist or poor) sneak into the back lawn at 4am to wash yourself.

All I hear are crybaby excuses from the basement dwellers. Get off your ass.

I never was with "it," because I really didn't give a fuck.
Then they changed what "it" was.
Someday it will happen to you!

Haha, you think people who are over 25 are boomers...
I bet you think communism is still a viable idea despite the requirement for flawless leadership.
