    There are two types of people in the world. People who pee in the shower and those that lie about not peeing in the shower.

    Of course, and occasionally I also poop in the shower. It’s always funny to stomp it down the drain.

    I’ve done plumbing work before, it’s all pipes, people. Piss to your heart’s content, you’re not hurting anything

        In any country, I would think.

        Even where grey water systems are deployed for water re-use, shower water /is/ normally collected, but piss would be so diluted as to be a negligable contaminant. A shower uses roughly 70 litres of water. An average human bladder voiding is 400ml, so that works out at 0.57% piss in the grey water collected in a single shower. Negligable.

        Piss away.

    I have a slow drain so the shower ends up with a shallow puddle by the end. So, no, I don’t like standing in a puddle of my own pee.

    But otherwise, pipes is pipes. No judgement here.

      Look up a product called Thrift. You can get it on Amazon. It’s a type of flake drain cleaner, comes in a bottle. Basically run your shower on super hot for a few minutes to heat up the pipe, then pour a bunch of this stuff down, and a bit more hot water. Leave it alone for a few minutes, then flush with hot water. Unlike Drano, this stuff actually works. Originally I found it on a plumbing subreddit. I’ve done it to my shower a few times and it seems to have a longer lasting effect every time, like it’s actually cleaning out the pipe.

    No, because it’s right there next to the toilet and I don’t want to get pee on my feet.

      Strange story for you… I had very bad athletes foot for many years. All the off the shelf powders and creams didn’t help at all. Someone told me to pee on my feet to cure it, I didnt believe them but tried it anyways. Worked amazingly quickly. Occasionally I do it still but not all the time. Haven’t had athletes foot in over 25 years… I’m so sorry for the story. 😂

          Yep that’s the idea. Not actually sure if its preventing anything… But it hasn’t come back. Its in the shower so I don’t care. Finish washing up and spray the shower with cleaner when im done. 😂

      Our shower drains into the grey water tank a

      I’ve done the maths!

      Shower water /is/ normally collected in grey water systems, but piss would be so diluted as to be a negligable contaminant. A shower uses roughly 70 litres of water. An average human bladder voiding is 400ml, so that works out at 0.57% piss in the grey water collected in a single shower. Negligable - but for fruit trees, a fertiliser.

      And this is why all of Dave’s neighbors have learned to securely lock down their entire house before taking a shower.
