Being British, we love to have a good old moan… so why not have a moan about bathrooms?

Whilst Ziggiziggi aims to help you create the perfect bathroom, sometimes you just can’t escape those annoying imperfections. Which of these is your biggest bathroom pet peeve?

The wobbly toilet seat.
You sit down and then there it is. The dreaded wobble. You feel yourself slowly veering away and longing for a stable and secure seat for your posterior. Yes, it’s not the worst thing in the world, but it gets on our nerves.

The frustrating flush.
When the toilet handle just won’t comply and doesn’t want to flush unless you use every ounce of strength or are the incredible hulk. We’ll take an automatic sensor flush over that any day.

Over-excitable automatic flush mechanisms.
Those sensor-operated flush systems which go into overdrive the second you get anywhere near them. Calm down, we haven’t even sat down yet. And don’t get us started on auto systems which don’t work where you end up flapping your hands in front of them like a deranged bird.

The leaky faucet.
Leaky taps are just the worst. Forget the huge waste of water and money, they are just so annoying.

Greedy toilet paper users.
That horrendous moment when you look over and see a finished roll of loo paper that hasn’t been replaced. The horror!

What’s your most frustrating bathroom pet peeve?

Forget the mushy weddings, haunted houses and high school prom scenes. Sometimes a bathroom scene can be the most funny, intense or memorable part of a film or television show. Here is our pick of the best.

1. Psycho (1960)

One of the most iconic bathroom scenes ever. A woman showering in the Bates Motel meets her end when homicidal Norman Bates shows up.

2. Trainspotting (1996)

Mark Renton meets ‘Scotland’s worst toilet’ and winds up crawling INSIDE the toilet to procure two opium suppositories.

3. Seinfeld (1994)

Elaine finds herself in a sticky situation when she uses a public bathroom and finds that there is no toilet paper. The woman in the cubicle next to her refuses to ‘spare a square’.

4. Jurassic Park (1993)

Donald Gennaro, hiding out in a Jurassic Park bathroom, meets his end when a ferocious T-Rex is on the loose.

5. Friends (2002)

6. Pretty Woman (1990)

Vivian enjoys her new luxury lifestyle in the tub.

7. Bridesmaids (2011)

The girls suffer from food poisoning when dress shopping. The hilarious scene wasn’t actually written into the original film script, but came about during production!

Tony Montana soaks in a huge bubble bath and still manages to look cool.

The shower is a strange place. It is a place where most people stand naked and ponder life.

But why? Why is it that we always stop and think about life’s deepest problems when we’re in the shower?

We’ve come up with a few reasons why we think about life’s unanswerable questions in the shower:

It’s Peaceful
When you’re in the shower, you can relax and escape from the hustle and bustle of your routine. When you’re relaxed and stress-free, your mind can drift and wander onto random subjects.

It’s Private
When you’re all alone and have no interruptions, you can have a good old daydream.

It’s Boring
When you don’t have to concentrate on something stimulating, you free up your subconscious.

It Messes with your Biology
Studies have proven that when you are in the shower, your brain releases dopamine and more alpha waves also flow through the brain, both of which increase creativity.

It’s Wet
Water is associated with contemplation – think waterfalls and rivers. We associate these places with thinking deeply.

It Wakes You Up
Showering signals the start of a new day and wakes you up – this helps you to be more alert and think up those wacky ideas.

So that’s why we think up the craziest ideas when we’re in the shower!

Look out for our daily #showerthoughts that we’ll be posting this week on Facebook and Twitter!
