    Why do Americans twist the shower head around after having their shower?

    The discomfort of the "first blast" can easily be avoided by not standing underneath the water. Anyway, these people aren't considerate enough to think about the next person who uses the bathroom; they also flood the tile floor after showers, piss on the floor, and neglect to flush properly. The...

    Hang on, what made you assume I hadn't heard of them?

    Yeah, they do seem like otherwise genuine people. I guess I'm just letting off steam. I hope I won't be remembered as "the user who made that hipster hate-thread." Now I wish I hadn't made it, since it only shows how bitter I am. I really like the gaming community, it's so inclusive. I hope it...

    None. I just like making sweeping statements to get big reactions.

    No. I'm saying that it's nerds' domain, and that art school kids should stick to plundering every other aspect of pop culture for credibility amongst their peers (i.e. films and books to name-drop on their Facebook page). I don't care if they bought a Master System on eBay to decorate their...

    MANLY TEARS

    Pretty much every film makes me cry. I cried while watching Tron, Lilo & Stitch and Phone Booth. During Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie, I cried when Metal Sonic fell into the lava. His final words were, "There is only one Sonic."

    Why do Americans twist the shower head around after having their shower?

    That video was amazing! I actually solved this problem by keeping two toothbrushes in the bathroom; each morning I bring my tube of toothpaste from my bedroom and squeeze some onto the bristles, "pre-loading" them for the next two brushes.

    Why do Americans twist the shower head around after having their shower?

    LOL. Actually, it is pretty obvious if that's what's going down, because then they take their laptops in with them... Also, they play music on their laptops in the tiny bathroom while taking a hot shower, presumably leaving the computer covered in water from the steam. Weird.

    Why do Americans twist the shower head around after having their shower?

    Yeah, it's probably just this one guy's idiosyncrasy. But still, I share this flat with new American students every 6 months (it's not a very stable living arrangement), and every single one of the guys has had this weird habit. An equally bewildered Englishman, also living in the apartment...

    Why do Americans twist the shower head around after having their shower?

    I live in a flat in the city with Americans, and every time one of them takes a shower they leave the shower head twisted in an odd angle. When I go to have my shower in the morning I have to move it back into place prior to turning on the water, to my great annoyance. Is this some kind of...

    Umm, you forgot about Edmund McMillen, who was wearing a Sunn O))) t-shirt.

    Do you have a problem urinating near other people?

    At least you were more adjusted than that one dude in every school who makes a little seat cover out of TP (but doesn't remove it when he's finished). In my primary school there was a group of kids who used to play a game every recess and lunch where they would drink a lot of water, then...

    Your Most Hilarious Blunder

    Turning my Game Boy off a millisecond too soon when saving my Pokemon Red game, thus corrupting my save file. After I realised what I'd done I broke down and cried like a girl...

    Okay, admittedly the film and indie developers have little to do with my original, poorly expressed point. I'm not even sure I had a point. Nevertheless, the trailer does look like a complete load of self-congratulatory wank. Why do we need to see Mutton Chops McRay-Bans seated at a bar...
