Is there any logical reason not to piss in the shower? It saves over a gallon of water compared to flushing a toilet.

Keep in mind that urine is sterile and does not promote microbial growth of any kind.

He's right due to sugars in it but as long as the shower is on it's still sanitary

The pipes of showers can't withstand the uric acid like the pipes of a toilet.

Don't piss in showers that you share with other people, guys.

>>10372889
This is why you should not piss near the end of the shower. If you just shower some minutes after pissing, then the urine will be diluted sufficiently to not be noticeable.

>> No.10372972

>>10372968
No, you definitely should piss at the start of the shower. It's easy to do, since turning on the shower usually triggers the urge to piss.

That is precisely the point. If you ever require a fecal transplant, all you must do is give yourself a balloon enema from your p-trap. In the land of medical bankruptcy, thrift is king.

Why not. I would understand and allow it if other people did it in my shower.

Shower is "grey water" and toilet is "black water". Some places direct these to different locations. However, regardless, both use the same pipe material types.

categories such as "clean" and "sanitary" (i.e. appropriate and generally safe for human use) are completely removed from "sterile", which means the absence of "germy" life, a stronger condition; the two are confused by uneducated normies who don't know terms. Sterility-as-such refers to the total absence of life, bacteria, germs, nasty or even nice bits of life etc on the forceps.

It should be stupidly obvious that the product which flows immediately out of the germy organic water-meat-bag animal is not "sterile". But since it isn't, and since you've demonstrated that you deserve to be condescended to, have a wiki subsection:
