and no I don't pee in the shower. Though I tend to clean the tub as I shower.

wait people poop in the bath :O I mean pee is one thing it's clean it goes down the drain but taking a dump in the bath is a whole other thing.Grouchy Imp said:It's not people who pee in the shower that're the problem, it's the people who crap in the bath...
It was more in the nature of a casual one liner. I don't think many people choose to go swimming with brown trout. Although this is the internet, look hard enough and you'll find someone.aba1 said:wait people poop in the bath :O I mean pee is one thing it's clean it goes down the drain but taking a dump in the bath is a whole other thing.Grouchy Imp said:It's not people who pee in the shower that're the problem, it's the people who crap in the bath...
I think I'd maybe still prefer that to the sibling effect I suffer along those lines, from a poorly plumbed-in washing machine connected to the sink trap... and tends to make the latter backflow... UUUUGGGGHHHsomonels said:Good plumbing - yes.
Bad plumbing - no way.
The urine smell tends to stick around and somewhat spread in buildings with bad plumbings. I had finished washing dishes when the smell of Horsenade struck my olfactory senses.
Consistency? What exactly do you mean? As in, making sure your pee all goes towards the drain, you stop peeing before stepping out of the bath or cubicle and turning the water off, and make sure you rinse off any oversplash? I woulda thought those three were a given...Ulquiorra4sama said:I have, but i just felt disgusted with myself afterwards so i stopped. Usually get that outta the way before entering the shower. Talk about your water saving all you want, but unless you have the consistency to get everything done in there i say you should shut up and empty yourself in the proper form.
Yeah, it's because we didn't already have showers... because baths already existed, which you could use to get clean, but there was no extant alternative to proper sanitation... and because a flush toilet needs far less head of water (ie pressure) to work effectively than a shower. One with a low level cistern can refill slowly, then flush all at once where the pressure isn't enough for any water to come out of the shower AT ALL... and in older houses with an outdoor lav, it was always ground floor - running water might not have even made it to the upper floors, where the latterday bathroom ended up being, or even inside the house at all... residents getting their water from a hand-worked pump in the yard which delivered water on demand at a much faster rate than if you diverted whatever standpipe was running into the toilet. If high pressure mains water had been around at the time of it's invention, the flush mechanism may not have been needed at all - instead toilets would have just been made with some kind of jacuzzi-like water jet thing.There's a reason we invented the toilet first!
I mean consistency as in: If you want to talk about saving water by peeing in the shower then save water by taking a dump there too.tahrey said:-snip-
That's a stupid argument and you know it.Ulquiorra4sama said:I mean consistency as in: If you want to talk about saving water by peeing in the shower then save water by taking a dump there too.tahrey said:-snip-
Unless you have a UTI, kidney, or bladder infection...evilneko said:Why not? It's not like the pee stays in the shower. Goes down the drain. Doesn't dirty anything up--and pee is sterile. It's cleaner than the water coming off of your body. From a bacterial perspective, cleaner than the water coming out of the showerhead even.
