Most programs won't render slices thin enough for the "Shower" portion of that...
I think your skin technically is expanding
I feel it happening in the moment
It probably is something you can feel if your skin is dry and/or cold. It does stretch and become more pliable when warm and wet.
Elevate the experience with a towel warmer and/or space heater in the bathroom
Two words: underfloor heating.
When walking around barefoot, warm tiles are so much nicer than cold ones.
Poor person's solution is living in a place with plastic flooring.
Love to see i'm not the only one who puts visual emphasis on the word "warm", just to encapculate the feeling ๐
I feel attacked!
Is this an autism thing? I thought everyone did it?
Maybe. I think everyone shares some traits, but the hypersensitivity to physical sensations and dislike of transitions probably makes us do it more often than others.
Also the sound
Taking a bath, doubly so
what I'm doing when I spend 30 minutes in there
me too :)
Ooh, I love warm showers UNTIL IT SLOWLY STARTS GETTING COLD, REQUIRING A TEMP INCREASE
