There seems to be a bell-curve correlation.

The less you shower, the worst your taste in literature (is up to a point*).

See:

*That point is once a day (sans the first reply).
At this point on the chart, we get patrician selections.

Not that guy, but the more you wash away your oils the more oils your body produces. It's well-documented.

To wit, the only reason why your hair is a "tar pit" is because you have made it that way. Your head is working overtime to produce more oil to compensate for all that you wash away so often.

You let your standards slip and it'll take you longer to get your life together and get out of NEETness. I cannot even believe that you're berating another poster for suggesting basic levels of daily hygiene.
