My sink dispenses hot water as well.. But I do it before because after my shower the mirror is too steamy. Plus it's easier to just shower off the excess shaving cream.
You can put a drop of shaving cream on your finger and wipe it across the mirror and it keeps t from steaming up, but I see your point too.
Here is what I have been pondering lately: I heard somebody say that soda is the number 1 cause of obesity. I think that's bullshit. I'm not saying drinking a bunch of soda won't make you a fat fuck, because it will. Still, I say either the car or electricity has got to be the number one cause of obesity. If you had to walk everywhere you wanted to go, do laundry by hand, run to the market every day for food because you didn't have refrigeration and do all of the rest of the work that electricity does for you, not to mention the fact that you couldn't pass time watching TV, playing video games or surfing the internet, there s no way anybody would be obese.
I heard the reasoning behind "soda makes your fat" is because of all the fructose and calories in it - soda manufacturers use high-fructose corn syrup for the sweetener rather than regular sugar, as it's cheaper to due US corn subsidies. The "empty" calories have no benefit to the body (fruit has fructose as well, however it also has many other beneficial nutrients), and the surge in blood sugar level as a result of consumption can leave the body tired and even more hungry, causing you to eat more.
the other theory is the way that the body digests fructose, and how it differs markedly from glucose digestion. something about fructose going straight to the liver and putting strain for it to be processed, whereas glucose can be metabolised anywhere in the body. I don't believe there's ever been concrete evidence that fructose = obesity, but the theory seems to be widely regarded as truth if you look at any nutrition guide.
european countries have cars and electricity, but dont have the obesity problem. going backwards and making things harder as in the "good old days" seems to be a strange panacea to revert to.
p.s. australia has cars and electricity and a shitload of soda, apparently we're the fattest nation in the world. number one, baby!
