I don't think I've ever used a shower where there was no way to avoid an initial cold spray while standing in it, so it never occurred to me to turn it on first because it wasn't an issue.

Also before someone asks, they were just roommates

I had a very cold shower once until I realized the way that one knob faucet worked was you had to turn it an insane amount to get to the hot water.

I don’t like wasting water, so I just stand at the far end and try to start wetting my hair until it gets warm enough to fully step in.

Have you ever done something...this dumb?

Well, at least OOP realizes it was dumb. I’d tell them to relax and not let it ruin their evening. We’re all astonishingly stupid sometimes. It happens to the best of us.

I remember seeing this reddit post like a decade ago. Lol

What's the difference between pointing the shower head away and standing outside at first?

I prefer to cower in fear, actually. Too much of an effort to lean in and start the water beforehand. Plus now I usually shower in a standing stall so I have to be in it to turn the water on anyway. Just gotta set the angle and the cower space just right.

Im one of those dumbasses that likes a cold shower.
