Douchiness combined with one of my pet peeves (LANGUAGE)

The only shower that confused me was the one in my first apartment. You had to pull down on the end of the tub faucet (there was like a seperate ring but it didn't really look like a seperate piece). The really confusing thing was that there was a lever on the wall but that was to plug the drain.

My last apartment had a shower switch like that. Also, the temperature adjuster was a bit odd, too. There was a kind of lever that rotated around that adjusted the water pressure, and then there was another rotating thing in the center of that which actually adjusted the temperature. Since my husband had lived in that apartment first and I moved in with him, he was able to show me how it worked. I bet it would've taken a little bit for me to figure it out on my own

The first time I went to a hotel with a shower-only, I was confused by just the one big lever that you turn (and it doesn't pull or tilt.) I was used to always being able to vary the water pressure, not being limited to temperature. (This was a long time ago... I think I've now stayed in enough hotels to have an honorary degree in shower-control-ology.

How does the three sea shells work???

If you want hot, you push the indicator portion to the left.

Usually yes, unless you're in Phoenix during the summertime. Then you've got two water temperatures: hot on the left and scalding on the right!

So much for the seashells. See you in a few minutes.

They're down by the she's sore.

And every hotel/motel has a different faucet. And how many times do we travel? And how many faucets do we need to get used to?

I remember I was in a rest stop place, using the bathroom. I could not for the life of me figure out how to flush the toilet. And I would like to think I'm a reasonably intelligent woman. It was not a handle, not a pushbutton. Not one that flushed automatically when you stood up.

Turns out you just waved your hand over some kind of sensor panel on the wall.

I've been to people houses where *every* faucet is "cold on the left, hot on the right", so I can only assume that it was intentional. I've never been anywhere where you had a pressure-adjustment knob, however...which is just as well, I'd have set it on the "sandblast" setting anyway >_>
