It's better to piss in the shower than to shower in the piss.
It's better to shit in the sink than to sink in the shit.

I don't shower 4-6 times a day.
Nobody said anything about taking a shower.
I drink a whiskey drink, I drink a vodka drink
And when I have to pee I use the kitchen sink

When I was a kid, I perused a book called "Are You Normal?"
I'm not sure whether that's it. My copy was blue.
Anyway, reading it, I was surprised to learn that 4-6 times a day is apparently not a normal amount of times to pee.

My mother in law used the old English saying to explain an uptight / unfun person "they don't even pee in the shower" in conversation. My mother was incredulous "WHAT? People pee in the shower?!" the other dozen people in the room were like "um, yeah, that's normal" and she instantly thought we were all gross, and then switched to being extremely called out. That was a fun Christmas
Pooping in the shower is 1000x worse though.

Of course it is, if you enjoy the scent of hot steamy piss.
I stay very hydrated so it doesn't smell
Pissing in the shower makes it smell like a urinal.
Top tip: turn the water on.
drink more water and it won't. your pee should not have a strong smell unless you are dehydrated.
Asparagus would like to speak with you.

Some foods/drugs can make it stink no matter what. For example i can always tell when I've had caffeine as it has a distinct smell in my urine.
Toilet is easier to flush. Unless I'm actually showering at the time, I'd much rather use the toilet than the shower.
Yeah I guess to clarify I mean when you are showering.

As much as I hate splashback, I just cannot agree with this. Even if it's while I'm already showering... ain't no way. Why can't so called "modern" housing just invent a decent bathroom for humans with dicks? How is it that I can piss without concern at a fucking Dave & Busters but in the privacy of my own home, I always have to try not to piss on the floor by accident? Seriously, this shit can't be that hard to figure out.
The piss vapor hitting me in the face is really not magnificent.
Please come back. :-( My life has come to a halt.
I'm always there, lurking in the shower.
I was really surprised about the response. I posted it right before going to bed and was too tired in the morning to respond. As you didn't know what I was referring to let me clarify: You know how there's water vapor all around you when you shower? You can see it on your mirror if ventilation in your bathroom is insufficient. If you now take a piss in the shower, and especially if there's warm water in you tub that didn't drain yet, some of the piss will also be vaporized. It's probably more accurate to say it mixes with the vapor. I can smell that and it's not amazing.
The response tells me not everyone experiences this. That's probably a combination of me not drinking enough while also enjoying very hot showers with the water not draining fast enough.
I respect your curiosity and hope your life can now continue. Enjoy your next shower.
Are you pissing into a fan?
No but into the draining warm water in the tub creating a piss vapor. You're telling me you don't know what I'm talking about?

Oh man, I've pissed in the shower most days for years and have never once taken piss vapor to the face. What am I doing wrong?

Nah, I've got bad kidneys, and I manage not to piss in my own face 🤷🏼♂️

I have no idea what you are talking about. And brother, I have been pissing my entire life.
Edit: I really need you to come back here and explain "piss vapor".

nobody puts their bare feet in the toilet. eww.
Truly a showerthought. Not a good one but it involves showering.
Some places collect grey water and use it for flushing toilets. Adding urine to the grey water makes it smelly.

No edit. Bad smell? Drink more water. /jk

It's called a p trap for a reason

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
