So, guys, how do you like your shower head? I find myself constantly re-adjusting it this year to a more downward angle. That way the water hits more of my back, I don't know how one of my roommates can stand such a horizontal level confuseddood;

I always put it as high (horizontal) as it can go because I am pretty tall.

Doesn't that result in water spraying all over the wall and right above the drain and hardly getting any water on you?

idk something close to 45° confuseddood;

nope. it doesn't go far enough to where it would do that. it just goes down at an angle. (not even straight down but towards the other end of the shower/me)

Oh. My shower head goes down deep, I guess.

Yes I think if I had a different shower head (and I am sure I have encountered others unlike my own) I would probably just put it in a place that's almost like the furthest down position of my shower head because it's nice there.

Aha! One of you people! Now I can interrogate you.

I'm very tall as well, but I don't find that the horizontal angle helps much with that... it's still blasting into my upper back/neck but without warming the rest of me. If I angle it downward it will hit the same area but then also the lower back and butt. Do you stand further away from the shower head or... idk, how does it work confuseddood;

I don't know anything about the spray, all of the walls/shower curtain are meant to contain water so I'm not concerned with getting them wet. Do you have a shower head that's more like a handle you can remove or something? huhdoodame;

This is how I feel about mine, except furthest up position. It is perfect.

Well, when I spray hot water on my shoulders, it rolls down my back and legs, warming my whole back. When I spray hot water on my lower back, it only rolls down my lower back and legs, leaving me pretty cold.

No, my showerhead is a regular shower head, but why would I waste water spraying it somewhere other than on my body?

I remember I went to this hotel once, and it was really tacky and everything, but it had this great showerhead.
It pulsed on and off like a massage. Felt like fists pounding into my back.
Turns out it wasn't supposed to do that and it was actually defective and blew off when I tried to adjust it.

This.

My shower is WAY TOO FUCKING HOT.  I don't know if it's because of the laundromat downstairs, but I can never get the temperature right.  Ever.

So I just point the shower head down so I have enough distance from it.  Then when I need to rinse, I hold my breath and take the burning plunge.

Feels good, man.
