Yeah, but if one gets hurt in a road-paving accident, then you’ve really got something.

Of course it isn’t. Any [fuller](http://www.vroma.org/~bmcmanus/fuller.html) worth his salt knows that you have to let the urine go stale and decompose into something more ammoniac before it’s of any use to treat wool.

Good grief, don’t you people have anything better to do? Sitting around making a bunch of sutpid puns at the expense of one guy who accidentally mistyped one word? One person starts it and then all the rest of you are compelled to follow along; think for yourselves, why don’t you!

Stupid herd mentality.
