If I cycle half the day, I like to sit in boiling water with a beer..

I take showers to wash, but I do enjoy the occasional hot bath in the evening.

This is the reason I don't bathe. I'm a vegetarian so I don't have any bacon to tape to the wall.

When I was little, I'd say maybe until I was 6 or so, my house only had a bathtub. We lived in a really old farmhouse and my parents didn't have money to redo the bathroom until that point. We also didn't really have much in terms of working heat, and I basically didn't experience air conditioning at home until I was like 16.

I have a large, 2 person jacuzzi tub in our master bathroom that I've used twice in almost 3 years. My 2 kids use it 3-4 times a week.
So, not me.

Yeah I only ever really take a bath if I've been cycling for more than a couple of hours, or if it was real cold/wet weather. It's nice to just completely relax instead of having to be semi-active by standing up and showering.
Otherwise I prefer the quickness of a shower.

I would do it more often if I had a bigger tub. The tub in the hotel on my vacation was so nice. Took one when I checked in and another before I checked out.

The only way I can have a bath.
Much like Werner Herzog, that bacon taped to the wall moved me profoundly.
lol. I remember going on about how awesome it is to get wrecked while sitting in a tub (as one does) in a thread here a while ago, then someone posted pics of himself with beers actually in the tub. Like, in the water. Not how I go about it, but still awesome.
Baths are the best, but if OP is strictly asking if we take them for the purpose of getting clean, then that's a no for me. Just like to chill in there.
Sometimes I take a bottle of body wash or shampoo, bring it down to the bottom of the tub and let go. Like in Jaws. Can't stay down with a bottle of Ivory on him.

Just bathe in the Japanese style OP, clean up and rinse off using buckets of water from the tub and then soak once clean.

I usually take showers 90% of the time, but every once in a while I like lying in a warm tub. It's not even so much for cleaning (those days I would already have showered in the morning) but just that it feels nice.

I love taking a bath, I definitely do it regularly.

Water gets cold, hands and feet get gross, too long to setup
I take maybe one per year

I am half fish; I can stay in water (bath, jacuzzi, pool, etc.) for hours on end till I usually get told to leave. I even sleep in my tub sometimes. I'd happily spend hours in a tub everyday if I could, but I can't do to not wanting to waste water.
Now that I've moved to a very dry place, I never had a single bath in two years.
I could, and I could afford the water bill, but it just doesn't seem right in such an arid area.

I only take a bath if I recently cleaned my tub. It's made out of whatever cheap material that dirt just sticks to. Shower first, clean myself, plug the tub. Then relax showering until the tub is full. Chill, listen to some music, think a bit. Bliss.

I randomly decided to have a bath back in Jan/Feb for the first time in at least 5 years, haven't had one since then though. It was pretty great! Brought my laptop in, put on some Seinfeld and just relaxed for an hour or so...I didn't want to get out.

That's not how it works
1) You can shower in a bathtub, that is before you put the tap in.
2) How fucking dirty are you?
3) Having the dirt diluted in a few 100 L of water doesn't make you dirtier, it came off your body. It makes you cleaner.
4) You can shower afterwards too.

I honestly don't remember my last bath. Eight years? 10? My shower is just not accommodating.

Ya...I haven't been able to fit in a tub in a long time. Shame, they can be relaxing, at least I remember they used to be.
Do you roll around in dog poo for a living? lmao
A bath with soapy water is just fine to clean your body.
Meanwhile, people survive just fine using a sinkful of hot soapy water to clean a series of dirty plates when they clean their dishes, without having to set up a fresh sink of water for each plate. It's the same principle.
We have one of those big 2 person Jacuzzi tubs in our master bath and my wife uses it about once a week or so.. she hops in the shower after that.
In the winter we bring in a couple bottles of champagne and relax in there together and get weird.
But as far as it being something routine or to clean myself... NO.

I haven't taken a bath in years, but I remember enjoying it the last few times I took the time to scrub my tub first.
These days, if I wanna unwind in that fashion, I have one of those foot massage baths from Brookstone. My girlfriend thinks it was just a thoughtful gift I got for her out of love but MUAHAHA little does she know! It was actually a great purchase. It's large enough to get like halfway up my calf muscles, but still pretty easy to carry around and store in my apartment. Plus, if you've got decent TV speakers, the sound the hot water jets make is really easy to ignore.
Seriously, just picture yourself in your underwear, on your couch, getting a jacuzzi-tub foot massage while having a beer and watching Netflix. Pure feelings of happiness and a content mind.
God "scrub my tub" sounds really bad...

Hardly ever nowadays unfortunately. My apartment's bathtub is tiny. Heated pool downstairs though so I'll be okay.
My parents have a nice tub but I'm rarely there and the only time I'd even bother taking a bath is when nobody else is around. Since I like to take my time and relax rather than have to deal with people pounding on the door because they're too lazy to go downstairs for the other bathroom.
They have a hot tub now anyways and that is better for that purpose.
What. I guess there was one time in my life where my brother and I got so dirty outside that we actually turned the bathwater black but come on.

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
Please tell me you bathers take a shower afterwards? Otherwise you are swimming in your own filth and that is just nasty.
I'm 6 feet tall so taking one is a bit difficult but a hot bath on a stressful day is really nice, followed by a shower.

I took one every day before I moved out of that house.

you can't put a price on sparks
the toaster is also not very effective during a shower. or maybe it is, i dont know.
baths seem like a huge waste of water and unless there is some sort of medical reason to do so, dumb as hell.
i don't do it because if i do my body relaxes and i wedge myself in so i can sleep without drowning. the water makes me piss myself without effort and i have caught in the face multiple times, and im too lazy to move so i just turn my head and let it fall. i have accidentally shit in there to, reminding me of when i was young and did that on purpose and use to treat it as my toy submarine with pinchers deep sea find.
