who fucking hasn’t honestly come the fuck on
I’d only believe people who have never been in a pool. Otherwise it’s a lie.
As a child, ok. As an adult if you’re regularly pissing in the pool I think something’s not right.
Oh yeah, kids have an excuse, adults don’t, but kids have still done it.
Last I looked into it only about 1/3 people pee in the pool (excluding toddlers and young kids), but that’s enough people that pretty much every public pool is gonna have pee in it.
Yep, every public pool, every outdoor pool, and every pool that ever has small kids in it has pee in it. Which is basically every pool. Also it’s that a third of adults have admitted to peeing in the pool, so that number is likely much larger. That super strong “chlorine” smell that people associate with pools isn’t chlorine, it’s chloramine, which is, as my boss put it, “Chlorine bonded to “stuff””. “Stuff” being literally anything that isn’t water. This includes pee, but also lotion, make-up, hair gel, everything. If you get bright red eyes from the water you don’t wanna be swimming in it. A little red is expected, everyone having bloodshot eyes? Nope nope nope, you will not catch me in that water.
As a former lifeguard, I can confirm that number is a ridiculous underestimate. People would be staying for hours and hours, drinking gallons of beer or whatever and maybe one person would enter the bathroom per 10 people. Honestly 2-7 year olds were the best about it, but nearly everyone else admits to peeing in pools or is a dirty liar.
Same, that number is a severe underestimate. 80 kids on a swim team over 3-4 total hours of practice and maybe two kids would get out the entire time. Almost entirely teenage girls. Other than that it was almost entirely kids under 8. More pools need an on deck toilet. People are freaking lazy, they won’t walk to the locker rooms, but give them a close single user bathroom and they’d be more likely to go.
Most anonymous polls put the number at 20 to 40%, but the numbers spike higher among people that spend a lot more time in the pools (like competitive swimmers, which apparently respond at 90-100%).
As for the hours in the pool while drinking, even if I’m drinking pretty heavily at a party I usually don’t have to use the bathroom until 2 or 3 hours in, and I’ll usually do a cup of water for every drink. Do people generally just have weaker bladders than I’m used to?
Let’s say there are 20 people in the pool. Most stay for 3ish hours. How many would you expect to leave the pool area to use the bathroom?
Sure most probably use the bathroom before or after… But compared to a situation like a movie theater where people snack and drink about the same amount, but most are busting at the bladder after two and a half hours… It makes you wonder what the difference is.
I’d expect 2 or 3 to need the restroom in that time, maybe 5 or 6 if it was a younger crowd.
Given what people are saying in this thread I think I was just unaware I had a stronger bladder than most and am underestimating how often the average person needs the restroom. Only time I’ve ever needed the restroom that bad after a movie was when I saw LOTR in theaters, and with previews it wound up being about 4 hours.
Soooooo…
All aquatic creatures go to hell then? Since they do more than just pee in the ocean.
Nah humans merely adopted the sea. The fish were born in it, molded by it.
They didn’t see the land until they already were partially amphibious and it was drying!
Fish fuck in it
Might as well pee in the lava pool
What do you think those yellow bubbles are?
Could be something else
Who is the cartoonist here?
Edit: Man, he’s just on Instagram and Twitter… I don’t want to visit or link either one of those here.
The myceans were right
