LMS - Last Man Standing.. Not FMS (First Man Standing) - This game is for night time only, not morning, afternoon, or evening.. NIGHT TIME ONLY!!

At night while most of the world is sleeping there are some members which are looking to socialize since they have no one else to speak to; they play a really exciting and fun game which basically every couple minutes you write a comment, the comments range from standing to sleeping, from young grasshoppers to old grasshoppers. it usually begins around 1:00 am EDT

RULES OF THE GAME:

1) Game starts at 1am Eastern, 12am Central, 11pm mountain, 10pm pacific... You get the point.
2) Anyone can call a roll call, just make a reply with "Roll Call". The roll call must be readable to the naked eye.
3) No more than one roll call every thirty minutes.
4) You have 30 minutes to respond to the roll call to stay active.
5) To respond to a roll call just post a reply with "Here" or "y y y"
6) If after one hour there are no more "Roll Calls" or "Heres", then the last person to post correctly either by calling a roll call or with a reply of "here" is declared winner of LMS.
7)You must have been awake for at least 12 hours before making or answering a RC.



OR IN SHORT:

When someone calls for a roll call. No more than one every 30 minutes and you have 30 minutes to respond "Here".

Perhaps try to take a bit of a cooler shower
The Rambam says to take a very hot shower at least once a week IIRC.

No. But I don't know if this is dependent on the diet.

It takes lice eggs about 10 days to hatch. The eggs are adhered to scalp with a natural glue. But the glue melts in very hot water. Showering in very hot water at least once a week can wash away any lice eggs before they hatch.

Does anybody else get thirsty after a hot shower? I very frequently do.
Just now took a 33oz Poland spring bottle and finished it in one shot. That's a record for me. Usually it's those smaller ones screw cap ones or sports bottle ones
We sweat in a hot shower just like in a hot room, but we don't notice the sweat because it's rinsed right off.  When our body loses water, it's normal to feel thirsty and to drink, in order to replace the lost water.  Perhaps yesterday you started out more dehydrated than usual, due to sweating more in the heat, or having a saltier than usual supper, or taking a longer or hotter shower than usual.

If you have a very accurate scale, you might be able to measure this water loss.  Weigh yourself right before stepping into the shower, then again right after coming out and drying off.  (Obviously, there's another way to lose water in the shower besides sweating, but at least for purposes of this experiment, try to avoid that.)

If you typically drink a 17 ounce bottle of water afterwards, then you'll probably find that you lose about 17 ounces, or about one pound while showering.  Last night, you might have lost as much as 2 pounds.

Some people used to think that they could go to a shvitz to "sweat out the pounds". Unfortunately, the weight lost by sweating is just water, and you gain that weight back as soon as you drink water or eat food containing water, which is basically every food.  Even matzo is 4% water.

It makes sense to drink the water that you feel you need to quench your thirst, although there's some salt is lost in sweat as well, so if you're sweating a lot, you might want to drink something like Gatorade which replaces both water and salt.

If you find it bothersome, make the water less hot, take shorter showers, keep the window open or exhaust fan on so heat doesn't build up in the room, and at the end of the shower don't turn off the water suddenly, but gradually turn off the hot water so the cooler water helps your body cool down before you get out.

Do you have as well a writeup about the best temperature and humidity for the shower room to be in? ;D

That is the one thing that mikvah Meir in Crown Heights excels at. Perfect temperature and humidity in the dressing room.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

How about going daily in the very hot bor in the mikvah? לית טב מינה. Unless you stay longer than you should then you become tired.

And this is why @biobook is perhaps my favorite DDFer, though she’s probably a terrible follow on Twitter.

I'm not on Twitter, but it might be an improvement to condense my thoughts into 240 characters.

I'm so glad they'll leave them!  I'd hate to drive up to Monticello and find that the mountains are gone.

Why give something a name like that if it's going to look boring, I'd like to know.

This sounds like it's being done as a refuah rather than for general hygiene.
