Shower Warm-Up Revelation

This is like the guy that didn’t know ovens mitts were a thing and would go “ohhhh I hate this part” before reaching into the oven and screaming while pulling out the cooking tray. I just realized I could let the shower warm up before stepping in I'm 28. The girl I was w/ wanted to take a shower together. "Why dont you wait for it to warm up?" I stared back at her, a million thoughts running through my head. I feel so stupid. I couldn't enjoy the rest of the night. I has no answer for her, and I always hated showers. Today I stood and waited for the shower to heat up for the first time, and it was great! I dont know. Have you ever done something...this dumb? I'm working on my masters and I feel like such a dumbass

A social media screenshot compares someone who did not know oven mitts existed with a person who never realized they could let the shower warm up before stepping in. The joke is self-deprecating: the person feels absurdly embarrassed by overlooking an obvious everyday convenience, and the post is shared as a reaction to discovering something basic very late in life.
