party poker

Show time. Shower time. Get fresh time. Smelling good time.

I was on the subway, and there was a crazy guy, and he seemed restricted to the usual crazy guy topics (i.e., getting in the faces of all the women on the train to tell them they’re beautiful, and then ranting about the World Trade Center burning and then something about racists). And then he was quiet for a minute. And then:

“Show time.
Shower time.
Get fresh time.
Smelling good time.”

Repeated approximately five or six times. I chant this before my shower, but only for special shower times. For example, I used it two weekends ago, coming back from a long hike all sweaty.
