Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Celebrate the fucking wins.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

Republicans do not trust women.

We need to vote them all out and restore sane Democratic government.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

Petty moves from a petty man.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Dear media: perhaps we ought to let Donald Trump speak for himself!

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

If you don’t believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love isn’t freedom, it is privilege.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Republicans in disarray!

You cannot shame the shameless.

The desire to stay informed is directly at odds with the need to not be constantly enraged.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

    College kids donate plasma, middle aged peeps donate old clothes, wrinklies pawning their piss. Huh. Brings a new meaning to “golden shower”.

    This is actually intended for John’s latest PayPal update – but for some reason I don’t get a comment box at the bottom of the thread. Anyway, when I read this yesterday – I definitely thought of John’s travails with a huge faceless bureaucorpocracy.

    Premptive eek! but could somebody please attend to the slashout issue in the latest Paypal thread? I’m left hanging on the Egregious details of Experion and I think I’m going to enjoy them. Ta.

    There are over twenty bodily fluids present in the human body and I am proud to say I have tasted all of them.

    A drink that brings a new meaning to the phrase “tastes like piss” uses sugar from the urine of elderly diabetics. (via, where else, Slashdot)

    A British friend often refers to Fosters’ Australian beer as “Fosters: Australian for Piss.”

    I think I’ll stick to my Balvenie Double Wood, thank you. When I finally finish this fucking book I’m working on I am going to buy myself another bottle and spend an evening pleasantly knackered. You can feel that shit in your fingertips.

    The paradox here is that if the water is purified then there is no difference between using cane sugar and tap water. So why do it? Either it is still piss or it is just a gimmick.

    You’re just a ray of sunshine this morning, mistermix. First, Sideshow Sarah and now another bucket of piss to shake our heads at.

    PS Cleanup needed in comment 12 of the PayPal update thread.

    And, if you have a shot of this stuff along with a cup of Kopi Luwak coffee (collected from the feces of civets), is this the ultimate in recycling?

    @Mnemosyne: To paraphrase Sam Bee, it’s no different than having sex with someone who’s wearing a mask with your sister’s face on it.

    Perfectly normal.

    Former Indian Prime Minister Morarji Desai was known for drinking a cup of his own piss every morning. According to Wikipedia, he took it up in his forties to cure his hemorrhoids, and apparently it worked. BTW, Desai lived to be 99.

    But that’s different, of course, from taking sugar refined from an old diabetic’s wee.

    @Amir_Khalid: I’m skeptical, because if that worked so well, wouldn’t everyone in India be doing it by now?

    I assume the body knows what it wants to get rid of…

    Besides, my great grandmother made it to 101, and I can be certain she did not resort to this.

    @WereBear: I assure you, very few people in India shared Desai’s belief in urine therapy then (late 1970s), let alone now. When it was reported at the time, people everywhere thought this practice of his was weird and gross.

    My old archaeology prof used to drink Laphroaig because he could then boast that his whiskey was filtered through bog people. Tasty stuff, though.

    Is it served in a urinal-shaped tankard? Is it traditional to order it with one of those public bathroom deodorizer cakes as garnish?

    @Amir_Khalid:

    There is a newage-ie belief that has floated around for years that there is some magical benefits to drinking your own urine. Since it has been done in survival situations I assume it is not in and of itself deadly but it seems like a bad idea to ingest what your body wants to be rid of.

    I bet if you google it you would get some fan sites.

    Finally took a look at the Slashdot story. “Gilpin Family Whisky” is such a boring name for a drink. They should rename it “Old No. 1”.

    I’ve heard the Corona is what Dox Equis drinkers piss, but I thought it was snark until now.

    That guy was a funny man… his english was horrible too. Of course maybe if he didn’t drink piss, he could have made it to 100.

    On the other hand, a lot of people did believe in gargling cow piss to get rid of canker sores. Or so my parents have told me. It might be a south thing.

    Well, it’s not without precedent–that is how doctors in antiquity distinguished between diabetes mellitus (“sugar diabetes”) and diabetes insipidus (“tasteless diabetes”).

    Fetishists out to shock people.

    As this commenter at Slashdot pointed out,
    The only time there is glucose in the urine is when blood glucose levels exceed the ability of the kidneys to resorb the glucose back into the blood . . .

    If there was significantly greater glucose in the urine, then the blood glucose was at damaging levels at least a few hours earlier (ADA Complete Guide to Diabetes).

    Either these diabetics are damaging themselves or it’s geezer abuse or it’s just for the shock value.
