One possibility: Guys will keep the same crack-sweaty shorts in their locker and use them over and over without washing them. It doesn't take too many doing that for the aura take over the locker room. Some guys really have no sense of personal hygiene.

If it's specifically the showers, then the staff are not cleaning things up properly.

For internet points? Sorry, we were doing this long before anyone knew about the internet.

Oh dear, don't ever forget your netmask.

Exactly. I'll go back to browsing the web with Lynx before I accept ads. If it breaks, it breaks...

You may be right, technically, but based on the context, I'm quite sure the use of the word "dark" here is intended to frame the behavior as negative. It's just like when various media authors refer to TOR as the "dark web" even though it has countless valid uses that are not enabling illegal/immoral behaviors.

I don’t care. The only reason this is an issue is because of all the other expectations we’ve created around time and scheduling.

Humans used to do this for millennia without calendars or clocks

“wearing a watch is like being handcuffed to time.”

That's perfect! I'm stealing this. I HATE, despise, loath in every respect clocks, watches, calendars and any other form of scheduling oppression. Go pound sand - I'll show up when I show up.

Sadly, it remains relevant.

That's actually not true. We don't go around correcting women.

I think he's using csh.
