Lyin' shower

Showers are something dogs just don't do.  A dog never wakes up, wipes their eyes, grabs a towel then picks out the days' underwear and heads for the shower.  Also, when dogs finish football practice they don't all gather in a locker room and shower together as a team.  This creates a world where dogs have no ability to wrestle in showers with fellow pups, accidentally touching the legs of others in playful jest.  People, or at least one infamous and accused person, talk differently about shower rituals. One would believe it is common for horseplay to happen in the sanctity of the gym shower.  This again is where dogs have it over people.  Public showering is forced behavior that is generally based on society not wanting odor after a good sweat to permeate the remainder of the school day, thus the gym-class shower was invented.  It's a heads forward, don't ever drop or fetch the soap world.  No place for an inter-generational laugh fest of naked towel cracking.  Once again there are parallel universes at play.  In the real world, one showers alone.  In the Nittany Lyin' world showering is the wet version of not only taking candy from the stranger, but jumping in the car for the ride.
