We Found No Good Reasons Not to Buy a Hot Tub

 

We were going to change things up a bit and write about something that people just don’t seem to talk too much about; the reasons not to buy a hot tub. We sprang into action and scoured libraries, the internet and your mom’s diary for reasons why you shouldn’t get a hot tub. Besides some juicy tidbits between the pages of your mom’s diary, we found nothing. We found no good reasons not to buy a hot tub.

So we stepped it up a notch and turned to shady resources.

We found a website that claimed to have plenty of evidence that hot tubs are bad for you and that you should not invest your money in hot tubs. Unfortunately, either the text was written in an unknown foreign language or written in English so bad not even our old English professor from community college could decipher it. One of our friends swears it was written in a language that looked like a cross between Klingon and Jawa.

So, after such a fruitless quest, we decided to scrap the whole article about reasons not to buy a hot tub and focus instead on reasons you should buy a hot tub. Research for this was all too easy.

Spend More Time Outdoors

Having a hot tub is a great way to break free from the depths of your couch and into the outdoors. Sure, you could spend your evenings mindlessly flipping through the channels on your television or binge-watching some ridiculous series on Netflix because everybody is talking about it, but it’s time you think about what you would rather be doing.

With a hot tub, you will feel compelled to turn off the TV and spend your evenings lounging in luxury while stargazing. You might even wind up having a brilliant and insightful conversation with your significant other. Something other than, “What do you want to watch tonight?”

Entertain Guests

Having a hot tub means you have an impressive way to entertain your guests. In the past, when you had guests over all you had to offer was cheap beer, taquitos from the Walmart freezer section and a selection of hair band rock music from the 1980s. But since you got your hot tub, your guests enjoy soaking in your hot tub, noshing on shrimp kabobs and oysters and listening to music from your collection of vinyl that includes David Bowie, R.E.M. and Cage the Elephant. You really have come a long way. It shows because your guests now stay at your parties later than 8:30.

It Serves as Your Personal Oasis

Think about it; you probably can’t think of a time during the course of the day when you have more than just a few seconds of peaceful bliss to yourself. Your mornings are filled with kids scrambling to gather everything up and rushing out to meet the school bus in time, your days are a blur of meetings, phone calls and listening to your workstation neighbor slurping coffee and giggling at memes people have posted on social media and your commute to and from work is worse than purgatory with honking horns, psychotic drivers and traffic lights that are seemingly against you in every sense.

But in the evening, you can sit in your hot tub and let the stresses melt away and you have your thoughts all to yourself.
