Showers

The infamous prison shower room... all the shower heads were located above and drained into either end of the channel on the floor.

Makes the showers in the institutions look downright homey, doesn't it?

oh, to be a cockroach on the wall in it's heyday.....

you got that right, lynne!

whatever you do, dont drop the soap :-O

Ha Ha Anna beat me to the comment... :(
This is where Soap on a rope originates? lol

...don't drop the soap!!!
LOL, i'm kicking myself for not thinking of it first!
i am lagging today....
XD

maybe this is where the term "you got your back up against the wall" came from

I think I'd rather smell bad....

YOU, of all people, don't want to smell clean?

Yikes. Lynne's right about the institution's communal showers.

This is just creepy. American History X comes to mind...**shudder**.

Now this one makes me think of cold water...

Now, that's a shower I would have LOVED to be a fly on the wall at.

This is one of those showers you just DON'T sing in. Least you draw unwanted attention.

I can't help but think of the Nazi death camps (shudder)

Nobody: I almost responded with a quip but then noticed a very bad taste in my mouth, decidedly un-funny.
I'm with you on that one.

I wish I couldtake a shower and dsnce around in all the different faucets in there!...ALONE THAT IS!

GOTHIKA

Where bending over becomes a risk taking event.

Drop The Soap. Don't Drop The Soap Baby.

PML! hahaha funny stuff Ozzy

Oh Man Prison Showers. Nothing Good Comes To Mind. Im Sure It Was Very Horrific Place For Many People.

Yes,Opal horrific is a fair description. Adapt or die.

I'd rather go around unclean

gives me the creeps......definately!

LIKE, SOOOOOO YUCK! I WOULD NEVA DREAM OF GOING IN THERE!

kelly-elisabeth

even tough gals like ME and BECKI would scream annd run away

I think I'm going to have a few nightmears tonight. I can't get the though of a the Nazi death camps out of my mind.

why cant you bend over in there ? (dumb question probly alredy no answer bt wanna make sure lol)

My first thought, THE HOLOCUAST.

I've never been. Nor would I ever want to go.

dont leen back!!!!!

it was at least hot . will never forget did 2 years here

I agree with Lynne. Makes the institutional showers from a previous photo look homey and I might add, inviting......

Institutional showers are pleasant compared to these. They have tiles in yellow and green, better than the cement in here. Some even have shower curtains, not too bad!

Drop the soap bar in the Nazi death camp's shower room.

Sounds awful, isn't it?

nobody said it yet so I guess I have to say it.
SOAP DESPENSERS.

at most jails, prisons, etc., showering isn't an option. If you smell, you WILL be cleaned...

some jails/prisons guards would kick you around or whatever until you did if you refused to get a shower.

I used to have to clean this shower three times a day. Hey it was a job for inmates and it sucked

It would be like a cattle call when sowers were called, There would be 40 guys in there trying to take showers with another 190 waiting.

Looks kinda like a gas chamber from the halocaust days.

I saw something like that in a Holocaust movie that I saw at school. It was REALLY creepy...

ilovehorseyrides

holocaust this, holocaust that. fuck you hollywood

Reminds me of that old HBO series "OZ"
