That’s as dumb as cleaning your microwave when the heat sanitizes it every cycle.
How did you take a picture of my college dorm’s microwave?
Was it brand new? It’s missing the telltale scorch marks of burned popcorn.
Or cleaning the inside of the toilet bowel – it cleans itself, genius.
TIHI
It looks like a turd is heated in there.
Takes too long in the oven.
Ha ha.
Not so funny with my shower, apparently it was built with a material that will destroy itself if it gets wet, I am not kidding, if you do not wipe down the Walls every time you take a shower it ruins them. One would think a material that can get wet would be standard for shower walls but nope.
If something fails so clearly at its basic function, can it really be “ruined”?
Is that Peter Thiel?
I’m confused, like is your grout coming off or is your shower made of drywall?
My shower was made of drywall, which I found out about when mushrooms started growing through the grout. I was able to demo the whole wall with a single pull because the drywall had basically disintegrated.
That’s why I had all of the drywall in that bathroom replaced with cement board.

Lmfao it’s literally in the name. Who the fuck…
Right? I couldn’t believe the incompetence.
Never assume to be incompetence what could be attributed to cost optimization.
Which is what is it is supposed to be, cement board, hopefully with a sealant on the wall before you put the cement board on but either way, then tile over top. Or cheap linoleum bullshit. It is really expensive to have it done.
Yeah, the tile guys quoted me on re-tiling the rest of the house, and it was like 1/3 the price of a bathroom. That’s because a crew can knock out a house in very little time, while many bathrooms can only realistically have one guy working on it.
No it is some type of synthetic from the '70s. Like plastic-ish adjacent, all the old people knew exactly what it was when I got this place I can’t remember.
How have these survived on the wall for 50 years?
We’ve wiped them down almost every time. I forgot once or twice for a number of hours. The main side wall was pockmarked when I moved in from being wet too much already though, but not to the point the water getting through yet.
But the humidity alone would destroy a non-waterproof material in a shower.
This doesn’t make sense.
It will literally reach 100% humidity inside of your bathroom. That material doesn’t need full contact to absorb water out of the air
Interesting, I know plastic tiles were fairly popular from the 50s-70s, but I’ve never heard of that being bad in the shower other than just cracking off like it does everywhere else too. I wonder what yours is?
Manufactured homes from the '70s is all I know
I can smell this guy through this meme
Like the magical laundry basket.
Never clean and maybe someone else will magically do it for you.
My laundry basket broke right after my wife left me.
I’m still waiting for the third bad thing to happen.
Murphy’s Law of Conservation of Dirt: In order to clean something, something else needs to get dirty.
