The unideal bathroom conditions at the Rio Olympics have been well documented. Athletes and journalists putting together shower curtains, general flooding issues, destroyed sinks, etc., etc. — you name it, there’s probably an issue with it.
Upon arrival at Rio, the AP’s Stephen Wade took to Twitter to let everyone know that showering would come at a cost:

A week has passed since Wade’s photo took social media by storm — have things gotten better?
Nope! Still dealing with flooding and various issues:
