Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.
Rules:
-
Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.
-
Respect one another.
-
All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.
-
Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.
Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

Dermatologists have confirmed many, many times that a daily shower is unnecessary for healthy skin. Hair experts also don't recommend a daily shampoo for most people.
That said... it can be hard to tell when you stink (olfactory saturation / incrementalism)... so I don't actually have a shower schedule recommendation.
No, you misread. They said shower once. Total. Not per day.
This person thinks
But doesn't shower.
This person stinks
They have no shower thoughts. A sad life.
Yet
I wish I could not shower everyday. I barely sweat at all so you’d think I could, but instead my skin and hair get so oily, that I have to take a medication for it. If I don’t take it, the oil builds up on my skin and makes my eyes sting. Sometimes even just after a few hours. :(
But I am careful to not use products in the shower that would strip my hair and skin completely.
Ahh stinging eyes from face grease, how I hate you and having acne at nearly 40.
I always think it's from my haair initially too. Hey I'll put my hair up and won't have to worry about it! ow ow ow ow ow eyes ow, wash face. Ahhhhhh.
Still don't shower daily. Once every 2-3 days is good for me. 4 if I'm lazy.
Use antiperspirant correctly and if you have a sedentary lifestyle, it's an easy game unless you giant, fat, and sweaty. Usually have to be combo of 2 unless your parents rolled the genetic snake eyes and you get scumbag genetics.
Neat, same thing happens to me but didn't know there was a treatment available! What medication is it?
Spironolactone. Talk to your dermatologist. It’s mainly prescribed for hypertension, but it works really well for this too. It’s the first treatment I was prescribed that really helped. It’s also used to treat baldness.
Check the side effects though. It isn’t often prescribed to men because it could cause undesirable side effects such as lowering testosterone and increasing breast tissue growth.
You can also wash yourself outside the shower to freshen up. Saves water and is good for your skin.
