King of Sweden calls for a ban on BATHS and admits he is now 'ashamed' to run one after realising how much energy they use
The King of Sweden has called for a ban on baths to help save the environment.
King Carl XVI Gustaf, who once had a reputation as a lothario and is now a staunch environmentalist, said he realised how much water and energy they used when he was recently staying somewhere without a shower.
The 69-year-old 'green king' told Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet: 'It hit me how much water and energy it used.
'I thought "I can't believe I'm having to do this". I felt quite ashamed.'
Apparently in jest, he added: 'We should ban all baths.'

Maybe he thinks if Swedes stop bathing they will be more acceptable to their Islamic masters and they won’t be killed as quickly.

The ‘King’ should have taken a COLD bath.
Very little energy used keeping water at room/ground temperature.
Wuss is what he is.

One would think this idiot would focus his concerns on the existential threat islam poses to Sweden.
Get in the game, Gustav. Baths are not your country’s problem.

Lotharios who oppose baths quickly turn into “Stench” environmentalists.

I pay no attention to any humanoid that has King in front of his name.
Americans don’t do “Kings”.
