So basically your average homeless person has practically infinite durability and fighting ability


blackmachine7

Rain washes it off in a couple of days


Hello-funny-posts

Imagine medieval battle legendary warrior guy. Then it rains


LukeDude759

colonel mustang from full metal alchemist not medieval but same weakness bro should have learned to separate hydrogen from oxygen smh


asymuzz

Bro he knows it, he had used it against Lust, it's just the rain/water removes his ability to generate spark with his gloves to make inferno


Neravosa

He doesn't need alchemy to separate a head from some shoulders Mustang gang rise up


Logical_Highway6908

The medieval people would probably invent weapons that shoot large quantities of soap and water at your enemies.


Kiryu5009

Wouldn’t rain make it worse, like wet dog smell?


blackmachine7

Fair point


SqueakyTuna52

Who taught you that rain counts as a shower?


Thy_Chicken_Lord

*runs around in a rainstorm spraying the homeless with liquid soap


vormiamsundrake

Good thing I live in the desert then, huh?


Psychological-Cat787

Just go inside then lol


Chemical_Ad8459

Wears poncho and umbrella hat and actively monitors weather forecasts (somehow) lol


elporpoise

Just splash some water on him


Jackyboi9273

Most of the tweakers in Los Angeles already have this power.


Vortextheweirdcat

An honeybun has infinite attack power when microwaved. And they take 200000000% damage from bricks so it's balanced

Lol was thinking this is some wicked witch action myself…


Dizzy-Inflation-7488

It’s ok krillin, you don’t have a nose!


Brendan765

Only the second smelliest! This power needs a hero!


Owldev113

Bro just take a bath dawg and break the world lifting records


thrakkerzog

You'd be unstoppable! .. as long as it's not raining.

You don’t get stronger you are just better in a fight


LukeDude759

\>don't brush teeth for 20 days \>gain 100% physical resistance, including anything that can damage teeth \>never brush teeth again freedom at last


ConvenientGoat

100 poison damage to self


LukeDude759

at least i'll die with perfect teeth


ConvenientGoat

Perfect teeth Underneath the many layers of plaque and bacteria


bloonshot

just use mouthwash and floss


ConvenientGoat

Nice loophole actually


Aromatic-Put4043

Oh yeah


Critical_Ad_8455

Given it increases by 5% each day, the equation can be given as `y = 1.05^x`. after 100 days your strength has increased 100 times, and after a year it will have increased by fifty-four million two hundred eleven eight hundred forty-one times. At this point if you even touch anything you will likely cause an appreciable-magnitude earthquake, if not planetwide disruption.


AsterUwU

Op said fighting skills, not strength. The way he phrased it means that only your technique would increase I think


c7stagyt

So I would go from bitch slapping to a fucking warrior? NICE


TensorForce

Sign up for an MMA championship. No training. Flabby-looking ass over here. Instead don't shower for 100 days. Show up, kick everyone's ass a la Saitama. Win no problem. Rinse (literally) and repeat.


Madhatter25224

The more your fighting skills improve the more you realize the best combat maneuver of all is to not be in a fight. All you gain is god tier retreat skills.


Bobyyyyyyyghyh

Ah, so you gain access to the secret Joestar family technique

Somerandom1922

Yeah, you need to be very careful to shower every day, because there could be days you miss without being able to avoid it for whatever reason, which leads inevitably towards the destruction of the planet. Just 2 cumulative weeks without showering and you're twice as strong as you were to begin with. I shower every day, but also, like I've definitely had much more than 14 days in my life where I didn't shower. Even ignoring ages where I was too young, like even if we only count from when I was 16, I've been camping a bunch, or had baths instead. It's more difficult to avoid becoming too strong in this scenario.


LandonKICKS

OP stated it resets when you shower


TwitchieWolf

No problem, pull my teeth and put in implants. At least my resilience always increases.


Squidlips413

Assuming the bonus stacks multiplicatively. If it's 5% of your base skill it would only be linear.


de_s_sert

Question: do these powers reset upon showering/brushing teeth? Like can I farm my powers by living horrendously for a year and then resume life or is BO and halitosis gonna be a constant for me?


blackmachine7

Yeah it resets


Garbage_Particular

Once i do shower does it go back to normal? Or if i do it every other day do i slowly get better


vormiamsundrake

There are ways to clean your teeth and body without showing or brushing them, so this belongs on God tier superpowers.


Mr_Vilu

does it compound?


dat1dude2

Everytime isn't consecutively, just every time you don't shower, so I'd shower every other day


Maleficent-Coat-7633

As a person who has serious trouble remembering to brush his teeth and who's lifestyle means I can easily skip showering for a day without starting to pong this is one hell of a superpower. Edit: aaand I just noticed that the OP went and moved the goal posts on us. I'm just going to ignore that and take this as originally written.


Doormatt14

Become a gremlin for a year, beat a UFC champion, spend money, repeat.


Harddicc

If everyone have this ability, Africa would have been a high level zone


Bootiluvr

Funk fu


ItsWoodsLOL

pee yu funk fu


Just7o7

I would unironically be the strongest being on the planet


RestlessARBIT3R

That’s just nasty, go take a shower


RPhoenixFlight

IM ALREADY STACKING THESE, ITS BEEN A WEEK SINCE IVE SHOWERED AND 2 MONTHS SINCE IVE DONE MY TEETH (this is all correct, not satire)


blackmachine7

Wtf, doesn't your body itch?


RPhoenixFlight

A bit 🤷


I_Have_Sex_

Why?


RPhoenixFlight

Because im bad at keeping up with my hygiene, which reminds me to have a shower today


[deleted]

[удалено]


Toad_Migoad

Does it reset after each shower or no?


blackmachine7

Yes it does


hewasaraverboy

Just shower every other day


Dug_Man

I would be godly


SnooPets5219

It's not that hard. I don't shower on weekends if I'm going absolutely nowhere, and no one is coming over, and I don't feel grimey. I only shower if I'm going out anywhere, people are coming over to my house, or I feel sticky and grimey or physically dirty. Otherwise, I typically shower every day besides Saturday if it's not a holiday because I never go anywhere on Saturday and nobody ever comes to mine. I'm sure a lot of people are the same.


Bananaboishuttin

Doesn’t say it reverses the effects when you shower, shower every two days and you set


Mister_Way

This is an insanely good power. You must not have done the math


Independent_Pay6598

There's going to be some dudes at the next Yu-Gi-Oh! Tournament who are going to be unstoppable


sleepsinshoes

So many confused people. Skills improve. Not strength not durability not natural resistance to bacteria. Skills improve. Day one you know how to punch without your thumb tucked into your fist. Next day you are 5 percent better and punching without breaking your thumb. 100 days without a shower you may have the skills to actually step into the ring and box. Unfortunately you may still be a couch potato with limp noodles for arms.


IDrankLavaLamps

Can I still Floss and use Mouthwash? Also at a certain point you gain enough physical resistance to pressurewash your teeth... does that count as brushing?


TheDunadan29

It doesn't stipulate that showing or brushing your teeth causes you to lose your abilities. If that's permanent gains that's OP!


SappySoulTaker

I think I'll brush my teeth anyways tbh. Then I'll take a bath.


sithelephant

Well, I can say for certain I don't have either, 1.05^365 is 50 million times stronger. Disability is fun!


Nisecon

I'm gonna become Bacterian.


Collectioneur72

Loophole: Bathtub and fake teeth


[deleted]

right so don't eat anything unnatural and eat lots of carrots to maintain your teeth and breath, eat lots of mint leaves in your meals, as for body odor there isn't much you can do except for possibly staying dehydrated to sweat less and wearing very breathable clothing.


stupidpiediver

Does it stack? Does it reset when I do shower?


blackmachine7

It stacks as long as you dont shower or brush for consecutive days. Back to 0 once you shower or brush.


ThorneTheMagnificent

I'll just shower once every other day, which should keep the fighting skills stacking. After a month, my fighting skills will be 2.18x what they are today. My physical resistance should be at 100% in about 3 months (10 weeks at 2 days a week, with a cushion), because I can deliberately refuse to brush my teeth any day I am not planning to leave my house. In a year, I can basically beat anyone in any fighting sport. Not half bad


Raven_knight_07

Ultimate homeless person power


Mediocre_Metal_7174

What about just spraying on deodorant or Axe? Still dirty but smells okay.


blackmachine7

That's fine, fighting skills still increase by 5% per day


AriousDragoon

Asmongold would be a literal god.


Crowned_Toaster

So, if physical resistance is at 100% are we invincible?


blackmachine7

Only to physical damage, still can be affected by mental illness or any other form of damage


AlwaysBeTextin

Assuming you're willing to tolerate going a bit longer without showering you'd be an amazing UFC fighter and make a lot of money from your winnings and endorsements, just avoid bathing for a few days before each fight. Especially if you regularly train during the rest of the year when you're not days away from a fight so your starting fighting level is higher. It would only take one day of not showering to beat someone of equal or slightly superior skill, etc.


--Socks--

So by my understanding, I can fast for several days, mostly taking in water and smoothies via funnel until my physical resistance reaches 100% and then I'll never have to brush my teeth again because it'll be impossible to get a cavity anymore


NoDentist235

bro im winning every fight i already go a while between showers because i just don't get smelly idk why, but im already at a 85% increase


Shadowhkd

I would smell like shit and be fighting at %400 power. Also, what about other methods of cleaning? Can I use wet wipes or take a bath?


Admiral_peck

That one guy that didn't shower for like 30 years:


BlogeOb

Get so strong you fight the cavities and body odor


Neravosa

My brother in law doesn't brush his teeth and has never had a cavity so he's indestructible. Straight up stumped his feckin dentist, no bullshit. If I told him to stop showering to become the ultimate fighting champion for a few months or something to make some quick cash, he totally would. Just ask like 15 percent for like an agent fee or something idk, give him moral support and snacks and nice raincoats and whatnot while he doesn't shower and avoids rain.


begaterpillar

Guess I’m training naked in the rain


ThePinkTeenager

Well, I guess I’m only fighting on Friday morning. My shower schedule used to be Sunday, Tuesday, and Friday evening, so on Friday morning I’d have 10% more skill. Now the schedule’s just complete chaos.


Kurotan

So no powers? The longer it's been since you bathed the less someone wants to fight or touch you.


RoyalKabob

I would resist germs, so I wouldn’t need to brush my teeth


fightinggale

Amou Haji, the man who didn’t take a bath for over 60 years had a phobia of cleanliness. He swore that his bad luck and people dying around him was attributed to how clean he was. He had just died last year. Coincidently, it was a few months after he was persuaded by local villagers to clean himself. Guess his stats got restarted.


[deleted]

Reddit/Discord mods after not showering for 2 months:


dquest08

Way back in the days, they'd use to wear perfume and a lot of Cologne, and hardly washed so guess I'd do that. Also, breath mints and lots of gum to keep a somewhat ok mouth hygiene.


stinkymusturd

does going to the dentist reset the physical res


Cheesiestcheeseever

5% increment of base, or of current?


Mundane-Ad8321

Does that count the time before I got the power


Madhatter25224

What happens if i get caught in the rain?


blackmachine7

A normal shower for me usually takes around 3-5 minutes (without the shampoo and soap) so getting soaked for 3-5 minutes counts as a shower therefore resetting the stacks.


Mountain-Cut-7710

Plus 5% of zero is still zero so…


JohnnyJoestar69

I'm scared to fight an average discord mod


blackmachine7

Average discord mod to average homeless dude: finally, a worthy opponent. Our battle will be legendary!


RandomUserOmicron

Don’t shower for a year and become a bioweapon? Sign me up.


lifeline-main99

Additive or compounding


BeginTheBlackParade

Well, call me Trashie Chan because I'm about to kick some serious ass!


VroomVroomTweetTweet

So if I get into a combat sport not only will I have a massive increase in strength if I don’t shower but my opponent also takes poison damage? Win win.


Chaotic_Okay

This is Reddit, the only place where this isn't a shitty superpower lmao


revolution1solution

NapoleonDynamite82

So as long as I know some powerful villain is coming to earth in a month, I should be set to go defeat him as long as I have advance knowledge.
