In that same water goes stuff like shower gel, antibacterial soap and the dirt you wash from your body and clothes. Urine is probably by far the least harmful stuff that gets in the water. It's not toxic or anything, it's liquid with water soluble by-products from the body.DoveAlexa said:

How so? Pee is sterile at first and so long as it's not the very last thing you do, all trace of pee is washed away by the time you are finished in the shower. You put more bacteria in the tub by bathing than you do by peeing.GrandmaFunk said:
No I can't ever see myself doing it.
When I get up I go to the toilet, THEN have a shower, so I'm never in a situation where I need to go whilst showering.
I'd also rather people not do it if I lived with them, but ignorance is bliss in that situation. If I never find out it wouldn't ever bother me.

No, really. First I've heard of this. Needs source, citation, explanation of the practicality of two sewer lines, etc. etc. etc. Something, anything, otherwise I'm just going to go ahead and assume this was a total ass-pull.

The joke comes from the webcomic XKCD:
Explaining the joke: In this case, the character on the left is trying to issue the command "Make me a sandwich" without sufficient user privileges. Using sudo, he can issue the command as a higher-privileged user and get it successfully executed.
By the way that comic scene joke is awful! Is it less of a joke and more of a "this will make people who get it feel really elitist" kind of thing?
Sorry, this is way off topic.
I don't see what's so difficult about going to the toilet BEFORE you step in the shower.
Don't even give the lazy bs of 'well they're not in the same room, so I can't be bothered', you're a lazy git, and it makes no difference. My toilet is separate from the bathroom and you know what? I just walk into the toilet first, then into the bathroom for my shower.
and if you absolutely MUST piss in the shower, go directly into the drain.
Not only does the shower smell like piss otherwise, it's the nastiest thought even to hold.

As I was reading all of the responses I saw a lot of people point out that urine in most cases is not a harmful substance in which I agree. Also, I've urinated in the shower all my life, but in a public shower like at a gym I'd avoid this behavior. Though for all those who say "eww gross" I would like to bring to your attention that if you've ever stayed at a hotel or live in a previously used apartment someone may have already pissed in your shower. Please keep that in mind.
The last time I peed in the shower was probably about 5 years ago. I remember not liking the smell of pee mixed with hot water so I never did it again.
Since when you do it in a toilet right before, you have to wait before getting in the shower, yes, I do. It saves time and isn't really any kind of major hygiene issue.
I pee in the shower, it's basically going down the drain anyway. it's not that gross, it's just pee. After all, the dirt, sweat and other bodily/non bodily substances clinging to your person goes on the floor too, I see no harm in adding a bit of dirt if there's shampoo going over it anyway. showers are meant to clean (and relax, I do love me some peace and quiet in the shower, water trickling away in the absence of light.), and no one is ever clean going in.Most of the pee gets washed away, and what remains is just as dirty as the bit of dirt, the remains of shampoo etc.
Peeing in a bath is only acceptable if you then leave the bath, sitting in soiled water is kinda gross, seeing as long term exposure to pee makes you a raging mutant, and the only cure for that is a banana. *ahem*
seriously, don't pee in a bath you have to sit in.
(I thought taking a shower is more common than taking a bath, it seems a lot of people are talking about bath. do you have them together? in this house they are separate, mhh. This is intriguing. Cleansing rituals.)

The Linux fan in me died of happy. "Sudo Make Me A Sandwich" is the classic method of demonstrating the power of Sudo. Think of it as Linux's version of "Administrator".omega 616 said:
>make me a sandwich
Make your own sandwich!

Right away, sir!
Geez, captcha is getting creepy.
OT: Yes. Urine is sterile, which is certainly better than can be said for the rest of the tub...
