So I hop in, grab my loofah (yea, i know..... but i like em and have used em for 5-6 years now) and put a decent amount of soap on it...

I wait till the shower gets nice and warm.... and as I look down and slowly press the loofah to my arm and begin to soap up, a freaking 1" spider comes crawling out of my loofah and onto the outer surface.

Now, i'm not one to normally freak out about bugs/spiders/etc, I've lived in FL long enough, but my lord, i haven't screamed that loud in years. When your not expecting it, wow... total freak out. My arms go flailing, I knock the whole damn shower curtain and rod down and I go running, naked, dripping, out of the bathroom and into the bedroom.

Ugh, I think i'm done with loofahs.

Ok, I could understand the flailing and knocking the curtain rod down. But running out of the bathroom too, from a spider?

No I'm pretty sure being in a prison shower when Bubba feels a little frisky would be worse. Yours definitely wouldnt be cool, but not the worst ;)

Fixed :)

My worst experience was when the pressure in the shower head stuttered, resulting in me shaving a slice out of the back of my head.

I've had a reaction to an unexpected bug like that too. I don't think I went running, but I remember thinking "judist, did you seriously just freak out that much over a bug?"

I guess instincts just take over or something, it's a pretty weird feeling when rational thought returns and you realize how happy you are no one saw you :}

I was in the shower a few days ago, and tried to blow my nose. I've had a low-grade sinus infection, so a cotton-ball sized wad of snot hit my hand, which was bright green and seemed to have some flecks of blood in it. I was quite impressed. My wife said she would've yacked had she been in the shower at the time.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that tops almost all other bad shower incidents.

I would ask for your man card now, but judging from what i just read it's safe to say you never had one to begin with.

I bet you'll check your loofah every time from now on.
