For all the people who thumb me down, I would like to point something out. In my excitement to be first, I had to come up with something that wasnt one word, unrelated to the FML, and not the word FIRST!!! So, I came up with this. I mean, c'mon, look at number two, his two word comment obviously states that he thought he was going to be first. So before you freak out saying the fumes were from the shower, I would like to point out that I knew that. I was just excited, so I posted something that could produce a cheap laugh. I mean, how sad would it be if number two's comment was actaully first. A two word first comment would be lame. So, think about that before you thumb me down.

Someone thought he was going to be first with that skimpy ass two word comment.

#2 So does your comment

So does your pun.

#44 That's cold, dude.

Thanks for the constructive criticism

Why the dislikes? They did nothing wrong, and the puns made sense.

51 it has recieved "dislikes" because it wasn't funny, didn't make a point, and or was stupid. Just like if someone says "lol" as a comment. It's not wrong (depending on the situation) and it makes sense because the commenter thought it was funny. It still get's thumbs down.

1, your profile picture freaks me out

It's just as much privacy as a public locker room. Unfortunately I'm banned from showering in public, because of too many complaints that people were startled when they saw me because at first they mistaken me for a horse.

26 SARA JESSICA PARKER?!?! IS THAT YOU?? :o

Does that mean I should believe you, or not?

Touché my friend, touché

Well the thing is, this is kind of a real thing. Not quite deadly, but not good for you at all. People who hate long posts should probably go ahead and skip the rest of this. Most shower curtains are made of a type of vinyl - specifically polyvinyl chloride. This material is soaking with a group of chemicals called phthalates. That's what the new-plastic-smell is. Phthalates tend to be really horrible for our endocrine system, but they typically get released very slowly over time. This process, like most, is a little more severe when the vinyl is heated up - for instance during a hot shower. When combined with a room full of vapor and no ventilation, the phthalates get suspended in the air, where they are inhaled in a quantity that is far from healthy. So, it's not going to kill you. At least not soon. But instead of forgoing the door, OP's husband could have just switched for a cloth curtain.

Damn!^

This is why you purchase a linen shower curtain. I bought my current one from Restoration Hardware.

This is why i dont listen to people on the internet, if it sounds beliveable, i belive them... Yes yes, im gullible, but to counter-act that i become ignorant...

31 - Either you have a Phd. in the field of shower curtains, or you saw modern marvels, I assume.

31, I see what you did there.

They be trollin. They hatin. xD

If not the phthalates, the Legionellosis could very well be lethal. But I don't think that improved ventilation is the answer. Just keep the temperature on the hot water above 45 degrees C (113 F's) and you should be safe. With such an ignorant world... God! Take me away!!!!!

Not only that, but there's chlorine in the water which when heated to 41 degrees Celsius turns to Chloroform, which can actually knock you out. Having a hot shower in an unventilated room is actually quite bad for you so it turns out your husband ISN'T a retard, he's just trying to do the best he can for you and has obviously not explained properly his motivations. So instead of removing the door you could convince him to either install a ceiling fan or get a KDF shower filter which will remove the chlorine.

He sends a bowlful of harmful fumes throughout the house a couple times a day. Thank goodness there's no door to trap it.

So true, steam can really fuck you up. I know from experience. Sauna+nap=hooooollyyyyyy fuuuucccckkkk. (accidental nap btw)

Then later your FML post will be " just killed my brother in the shower"

No later my FML post would be that it didn't work

That wasn't funny.

Totally. He makes sure his love won't be unhealthy. He wants to be wid her as long as possible

Theres always one fucktard that comes out and says it!

Actually, he sounds like a dumb ass, not a keeper
