Hell yes! I don't need no crappy freezing water on me at 5 am, I'm already miserable from being up at that unholy hour.

Of course I do! I don't want to enter the shower only to be hit with cold or hot water.
 
Some of you guys must have real bad pipes then. Takes about 2 secs to warm up, so no, i don't bother warming it up. Besides, that 2-3 sec of cold water makes the hot water later feel MUCH better.

Yeah, taking first shower in the morning on your floor at college is no fun 🙁
 
you could also turn the bathroom sink on warm and the shower will be too... depends what you do first... like brush your teeth...
 
Hell yes ... if I don't, that early morning in-the-shower snap is much more difficult, nothing to grab onto! 🙂
 
Yes, but it only takes about 30 seconds for it to warm up. I set my heat at 58 at night, so its sufficiently cold in there, in the morning.

Does someone take a shower before you?
 
as much as I enjoy hopping into a cold, HOT, cold, HOT, cold, HOT situation...I let it get nice and settled down.

I don't even understand people that take cold showers. Ever. For any reason. When I get done lifting and running, I take a few minutes in the steam room and even THEN I get in a warm shower. I just can't stand cold water.
