Today I Learned...

...that only did Kansas put an actual Cold War bunker up for sale once, some random dude actually turned it into a mansion: So uh, that's a real thing Kansas doesAlso, in 8x13, Dean refers to the bunker's "shower room." I don't actually know what word Dean typically uses to refer to bathrooms, but I don't think it's that. And like, the bunker and I

I've had thoughts about the bunker's showers. Because. Reasons.
I thought it would be a fairly military set up, with communal showers though they seem well provided for with sinks in the bedrooms. Must be a pain having to wander the corridors at night if you want to pee though.

And now I realise that the Winchesters are men, and uncouth and probably pee in their room sinks. Ew.

Omg ahahaah I hope not! Maybe back in the day the MoL had a rule against that... You know, for propriety. Sam and Dean, on the other hand... XP (Maybe that's why the room sinks are so low...)

I wonder what they would have done if Josie hadn't been possessed by a demon before her full initiation?

The advantage of being a woman in a man's world - she'd probably have been allocated a whole bathroom to herself.

Oh wow, that bunker is WILD. The photos of the tunnels??!? o_____o OOOOOHH.

the bunker and I have this really great deal going where I tolerate its presence and in exchange I get to do whatever I want with its architecture and I really don't care what it is in canon
A reasonable relationship, ahaha. My personal relationship to the bunker is probably the reason for me never giving much thought to the bathrooms/shower rooms either!

I was, funnily enough, trying to see if the blueprint of the bunker stage specified where the bathrooms were/how many there were, and found that guy's bunker instead! Kansas is a wild, wild place. Private bunkers, gigantic salt mine storage units... What DON'T they put underground there?

The most valid of all possible deals

[kalliel]

It's a pretty sweet deal!! It's worked well for the last seven years. May it continue for the next one. XDD

I thought I was the only one who speculated about the shower rooms. This is how I pictured it, but I never really paid attention to the background in this scene, because, you know, wet Dean. Story-wise, it's better to have open showers, because the pods are pretty confining for more than one person.
