Not me, but sometimes I catch my dad peeing in the bathroom sink, ostensibly to see if there are any uric acid crystals in his urine. He says they’re pink. I guess I’ll take his word for it.
Boy, I could almost buy that.
For your reference, I was recently diagnosed with The Gout. Caused by a buildup of excessive uric acid. My left big toe was SO painful that you just wouldn’t believe it.
If he can see the crystals in his urine, then I’ll try it myself. Gout Sux.
Um, can we talk slime for a moment? Nothing personal.
I am racking what’s left of my brains trying to recall a recent article I read, about a new type of scanning optical microscopy that was revealing previously hidden talents of common slime bugs. Help!
The technique is an advance because (I think) they scan the sample with high intensity blips of laser light from a couple different directions. The specimen lights up where the rays intersect. The low duty cycle keeps from frying it. They do tricks to make things fluoresce. We can take more detailed piccies while they are still alive and sliming.
So now for the first time we have 3-D images of the structure of common slime colonies. It seems that many types of little bugs immediately specialize for different functions, producing ‘highrises’ with specialized functions. Avenues of gunk flow around, take out the waste, etc. Other bugs specialize in being the ‘foundation’, adhering to surfaces better than other types. Slime colonies are much better protected and harder to kill than individual bugs or even a layer of all one type of bug. Many different types actually switch their entire morphology and metabolism, depending whether they are roving or colonized.
I know from experience involving testing with growth media that bugs will colonize a freshly cleaned surface such as a tub or shower in much less than a day. They literally invade from the drain, among other places.
Why the flying hell does this matter to your life? Bug growth rates on hard surfaces are mostly limited by food and temperature. Your wizz may be sorta sterile, but it also is chock full of stuff that little bugs want to eat. Do I want a nice juicy crop of slime on my shower? Tempting… but NOPE.
I make it a practice to avoid feeding the bugs in my shower. I realize that’s what immune systems are for, but I just don’t like to push my luck.
Ha! Got it! I’m not too stoned. I’m pretty damn sure it’s:

Happy surfing.
I just remembered a drunken moment that fits perfectly with this thread. A few years ago, my brother-in-law and I were drinking with some other friends…this was while his sister and I were still dating, before we tied the noose…I mean knot. He asked, “Hey, you guys ever peed on your girlfriend’s leg in the shower?” Everybody cracked up and then admitted to doing it at least once. At the end of the evening, I reminded him…“Your sister does not need to know…”
Sometimes I poop in the shower and squish it through the grate with my toes.
Okay, I stole that from another poster.
Why’s this thread in the pit? Wasn’t it in IMHO originally?
–Tim
I don’t want to be in the pit anymore. I feel like we are being punished. We should ask the moderator to take a shower with us so we can show him who’s boss…
Since I’ve got a bladder of steel (my original one ran away with the spoon, so I had to get a cyborg bladder), I can go days with taking a piss. HOWEVER, when you’re standing there, naked, water running over your body… why the hell not? Just let loose and WHIZ, man. Whiz against the machine! Whiz for freedom!
Never shat in the shower, though. Never had to.
And I’m curious… why IS this in the Pit? It’s not a flame to anyone, and only the most prudish of people would be offended by it. If anything, it should have been moved to MPSIMS, if at all.
If we’re in the pit…
It got moved here cause Slythe is an incompetent jackass who can’t move a thread to the right forum.
How was that?
Seriously, I have no idea why it’s here. Mods? Admins? Clue us in?
Cyborg bladder? Don’t have to pee for days?
That sounds to good to be true. Could you tell me more?
[q]Cyborg bladder? Don’t have to pee for days?[/q]
Serve and protect! 
I have been deprived of my Pit viginity against my will. But, hey, as long as I’m here - Damn shit fuck hell. Oooh, that felt good. Almost as good as peeing in the shower. Shit hell fuck felch. Oooh, yeah. Gotta do more. Let’s go FLAME!! Yeee-hah!
Oh, yeah, first I should say something relevant to the thread. In response to whoever mentioned aiming for the toilet from the shower (too lazy to go back and check, now) - what do you mean, most goes in? Doesn’t yours reach all the way? My toilet’s only 6 feet from the shower door…
TN*hippie “But I do take a crap in the kitchen now and then.”
Oh, great! I have no problem peeing in the shower but now you’ve caused me to pee at my desk! (Glad to see you back around, sugar… how’s things?)
Athena – had a similar deal. He was in the shower with me and I peed. I don’t know how he noticed but he did. He was appalled. This from a man that didn’t mind ejaculating into my mouth? Weird…
I don’t pee in the shower for kicks but hot water, the sound of water and the fact that I suck down about two gallons of water a day means that I have to pee a lot. It goes down the fucking drain… who cares? I’m not asking you to use it as perfume or anything… Christ in a side car I’m not taking a shit in the shower… what is the big deal here?
Graeme “But sometime when I shit in the tub, I pretend the logs are submarines and I put pipe cleaner periscopes in them.” What an enchanting visual! But how do you get them down the drain when you are done with your tub?
And if you don’t pee for days or even a few hours: You are dehydrated. I’d rather you piss on my kitchen floor than do that to your body. You should pee often and it should be mostly clear if you are hydrated. That’s why I don’t mind peeing in the shower. For me, someone who pees often, it is mostly clear, it’s just about distilled water. And as NTG said, it washes away…
I deprived someone named Smeghead of his virginity?!?
I think my morality test score just went down another 3 points! 
Scylla…
Actually, it’s horrible. It took me YEARS to accept the fact that my bladder liked the fucking spoon more than it liked me. Therapy, drugs, group sessions… it was a long time before I trusted another bladder again. And the loneliness… I’d stay awake crying all night, begging God, the Universe, whatever, to bring my beloved bladder back to me. But, alas, 'twas not meant to be…
But, eventually, I managed to get over that bitch of a bladder, who left me for a spoon with more money. I arranged for the artificial bladder (with a Pentium 3.5- 647 Mhz processor) that controls the urinal flow with efficiency… and it even comes with a pressure gauge, so I can send out a jet of pee in a twenty-foot arc. THAT part’s fun… but… the pain and heartbreak… sometimes, I still miss my original bladder…
I brush my teeth in the shower. I shave in the shower. Every day, without fail. I have never peed in the shower. Never. My mother would have a fit. But my mother is dead and gone. By God, I am going to pee in the shower!!! I cannot imagine a more enlightening, soul-freeing experience.
I may have to take my second shower of the day at any minute as I feel the familiar urgency that results from my morning quart of coffee. I am going to do it, I swear I am—just don’t tell my wife, please. But maybe she pees in the shower? And I don’t know it? I am going to ask her about it. Or maybe spy on her, that sounds like more fun and it is a worthy cause, right? Because when we shower together, I always remove my glasses and if I didn’t know it was my wife, all I could see would be a humanoid shape and unless I touched that shape, I wouldn’t know if it was male or female. But if I am already in the shower and someone else gets in, how I am to know who (or what) it is if I don’t touch? And since this is the pit, why the fucking hell does she always ask if “that is all you ever think about” when I am only trying to establish the gender of whomever it is with whom I am showering? I mean, hell’s bells, if it is a man in the shower with me, I will talk about the big game or stock car racing or guns or something manly but if it is a woman, then I will be more inclined to discuss celulite or bra sizes or cosmetics. Unless something else comes up, of course. But why the fucking hell does she get in the shower with me in the first place and then bitch when I try to help by soaping her up? Why the fucking hell is it okay for me to soap her back but not her front? Fuck it, the next time she gets in the shower with me I am not only going to pee in the shower, I am going to pee on her leg. That will be a liberating experience, you can bet on that. Maybe I better just stick with peeing in the toilet. No, fuck it, I am going to piss on her leg, I swear I am. I ain’t feared of no woman, so sir I ain’t. I’m a real man, I’ll piss where I damn well please. So long as its okay with my wife, that is. Hell, she is as blind as I am, maybe she will not even notice. Damn prescription Benzidrine, how it does make one babble.
HOLY SHIT!!! And I thought I was the only one! I’m a TERRIBLE morning person, so I wait to wake up until “the last damn dog is hung” (I hate that quote) So I pee in the shower. It saves time and, like so many others have said, it saves water.
I was going to say this but saw it was already posted.
It all goes into the sewer, why the hell not?!? As long as it’s not my shower, and as long as it doesn’t stain anything go for it.
Out it comes,
Down it goes,
Better hope the drain isn’t clogged,
or you’ll piss on you toes.
Did i mention I’m a poet?
DNFTT
Ok, a couple of things…
Athena mentioned masterbation in the Shower… I try not to do that; it just gets messy… however, I do pee in the shower. I just aim for the drain and aim the shower hose at the drain, otherwise it smells. These emoticcons are cool :->
For some reason girls peeing turn me on.
I’ve never taken a dump in the shower, but I have taken one out of the shower. Hmm… that has a double meaning.
What I haven’t figured out is what people mean by sterile.
I thought sterile urine would mean that it does not contain sperm or the sperm is dead, nicht wahr?
