A lot of people are now feeling compelled to do something for the environment.

And although there are many energy-saving tips, some can be relatively expensive and can demand a level of sacrifice.

This clever invention requires a sacrifice from you, and it may hurt when you disagree to the conditions.

Many of us love to stand under the warm waters when taking a shower and it’s pretty easy to lose track of time when you are feeling the soothing comfort of a shower.

However, getting comfortable for too long while the Spiky is in play will cause something completely opposite of warm comfortable shower.

 

 

Designed by an artist named Elizabeth Buecher, this special shower curtain will sprout up spikes if the person inside the shower takes longer than four minutes.

Since Buecher submitted this as part of a series called “My Shower is a Green Warrior,” it sounded like she was aiming for a full-out war between showers and humans who use it.

 

 

Of course, the “spikes” aren’t actually meant to hurt anybody who goes over their four-minute time limit.

Instead of causing pain, they inflate to a large enough size to take up all of the room inside the shower so that the person trying to stay inside just feels uncomfortable and awkward.

Although that covers the general idea of how this device works, there are some unanswered questions.

 

 

According to The Daily Mail, the curtain “knows” to expand thanks to a sensor in the tap, but it’s unclear whether it resets on its own once the shower is over.

It’s also unclear what you’re supposed to do if you need to wash your hair which will obviously take longer than four minutes.
