as someone who has only ever lived in an apartment, the idea that you’d run out of hot water is so fucking insane to me
Aww so you don’t know the feeling of trying to convince yourself that the water coming out of only the hot pipe is still warm enough to continue showering.
How do you know when you’re done showering when the shower doesn’t kick you out?
For me it’s when I regain consciousness, after staring into the endless void that envelopes us all in its dark embrace… Or when I wanna go to bed.
At least when you pass out in the shower you don’t end up with hypothermia.
it’s like how as kids we want to gorge on candy, then when we get to decide our own diet we do that once and from then on there is no more desire to gorge because we know it’s actually not that great.
you don’t actually want to shower for 3 hours, it just feels that way because you never get to reach the point where you naturally stop wanting to shower.
Wait Sweden has enough population density to have apartments?
lol yes it’s a standard form of housing, remember that 80% of people live in urban areas basically no matter which country you’re talking about. 50% of the population lives in the 3 metropolitan areas, the vast majority of the population lives south of gävle, and basically everyone in the north lives on the coast or in the few inland urban areas.
The nordics are honestly pretty similar to north america, just on a much smaller scale. no one lives in wyoming but that doesn’t mean the USA has no dense areas (NYC has a larger population than norway).
Wdym the Nordics are like America? They have history and living traditions
geographically.
we have the same general distribution of our populations, with like half the population living in a fraction of the area and at least like a third of the area being basically devoid of humans.
this is unlike a lot of central europe where the population is really spread out and there isn’t really a lot of empty space left, or e.g. russia which is the other extreme of everyone living in moscow and 90% of the country being devoid of humans.
Well, Russia is another completely different thing
Absolutely, the majority of the population does live in “small houses” with 1-2 families but over 40% live in “Multifamily residential” with more than 2 families per building. I suspect that most of the “Multifamily residential” buildings are considered to be apartments.
The country is very sparse but that’s mainly because there is a lot of land with absolutely nothing except trees. Most live in cities or towns where it’s much denser (obviously nowhere close to Paris or London though)
So they do have apartments but only in Stockholm and Malmö (basically the only cities they have)
No, at least some apartments exist in pretty much every slightly large town.
They aren’t Skyscrapers or anything, often just 3-6 floors but apartments nonetheless.
Holy shit this caught me off guard, hahahaha.
This was the first actual out-loud laughter of my day. Thanks!
You guys have hot water??
Go tankless or go home baybee
Indefinite crying for me!
I only went tankless because Walter White made it sound cool.
i just turn the flow down a bit once it gets hot so the cry can last longer.
On the shower floor? I don’t fit on there. Maybe if I had money and a modern shower, one of those that half of the water go outside because there is only a fucking half shower glass …
I have one of those, and we got tired of water getting everywhere. I hung a curtain rod.
Where do I get me one of these?
Mostly by generational trauma but some get by with fresh trauma
If you don’t happen to have generational trauma, store-bought is fine
