I haven’t had a bath in almost 40 years. I’m too tall to fit in normal tubs without more than half my body sticking out of the water, which is much less relaxing than a shower.

    I feel like baths stopped evolving in the 20s. Humans are regularly almost 6 feet tall. Why are baths so tiny?

    It's a conspiracy from Big public water utility. They want you to pour it all down the drain. They know if we could fit, we could use that same bath water 4, maybe even 10 times before emptying it. Plus once you factor in that using soap in the first bath means you don't need to use it again until you empty it tells me big soap is in on the grift. This is why woman are selling their bath water, it's very economic to recycle and profitable for those who can fit in the tub.

    “Less” is correct. “Less” had been used synonymously with “fewer” to denote countables for centuries before the contrivance of a distinction, and that usage has continued on despite some’s insistence of one.

    Unless you are writing in some professional or technical sense that demands “fewer” instead, “less” is fine.

    Sometimes it's just really convenient to take a shower rather than relax in a bath. So I do think that baths are abit wasteful anyway. I do always enjoy them though.
