[islandman]

In an exclusive interview with the Wall Street Journal, Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympic athlete of all time, broke this news: people, on occasion, relieve themselves in the pool.

Say it ain't so, Mike!

Eeewwww....and how many close ups did they show where he's spitting water out of his mouth.

 

[blobfish]

Aquagal is not amused.

There was a Danish swimmer a few years ago who is on the record saying that she farts a little at every turn.

Although not generally recommended due to urine's high sodium content worsening any existing state of dehydration, some people have actually survived in the wild by drinking their own urine. It could certainly be used to extend any existing water supplies.

A few ounces in a swimming pool filled with thousands of gallons of chlorinated water is less than negligible.

The ocean is a giant fish toilet.

Thats how it starts.

They should strip him of all of his medals.

Every last one.

How dare he engage in water sports during water sports.

You kind of know, but you never want it confirmed.
I heard this report a few months ago and I haven't been able to swim at all this summer.

Humans Peeing In Lake May Have Killed 500 Fish

Yeah... I had to get over that pretty quick. Fish are cleaner than ocean mammals for sure! But its a circle of life thing.
The natural clean up crew does a pretty good job.

There are very few people in the world whose urine I want in my circle of life.

Whose urine do you want?

Been swimming in the ocean since I was a child. I've seen all manner of dead sea life float past me. Never really though about it until 10 or so years ago. Hasn't stopped me, though.

Everyone in this thread is a secret pool-pee'er.

 

[bluemuse]

My parents told us that they put a chemical in the pool that would turn our urine a bright color. I held it.

 

[blobfish]

I pissed in a lake once.

 

[evesdream]

Whose urine do you want?

I thought about this for about 0.01 seconds and came up empty.

Everyone in this thread is a secret pool-pee'er.

I beg, don't make a 'who pees in the shower' thread. I much prefer my illusions about everyone here.

I chortled.

I pee in the shower.

*illusions of islandman go pop*

 

[evesdream]

I pee in the shower.

*illusions of islandman go pop*

Now you're just being cruel.

 

[Generic_chick]

I pee in the shower.

*illusions of islandman go pop*

At least you didn't say sink.

You don't pee in the sink, do you?

 

[islandman]

Now you're just being cruel.

But at the same time environmentally friendly.

At least you didn't say sink.

You don't pee in the sink, do you?

I don't, but would be open to it in a pinch.

 

[Generic_chick]

I don't, but would be open to it in a pinch.

Would that pinch involve taking the dishes out first?

 

[phrodeau]

If a guy pees in the sink, he won't leave the toilet seat up.

See the silver lining.

 

[islandman]

Would that pinch involve taking the dishes out first?

I assumed an empty sink in your scenario, however, if dishes are involved, I may just reach for a big cup no one will miss and have at it.
