A local government official in the Netherlands is recommending people save money and resources by peeing in the shower.
Bert Wassink, a council member in the Drenthe municipality of Aa en Hunze, said residents can reduce water consumption by combining shower time with toilet time, DutchNews.nl reported Wednesday.
Wassink made his comments as part of the council's 2013 sustainability initiative, which has saving water as one of its focal points.
The official said peeing in the shower "saves lots of clean water and is good for the environment."
"If you combine showers and peeing, you save a lot of water and money, so why not?" asked Wassink, who said he makes the practice a daily habit.

I guess it’s okay for me to come over to his house and pee in the shower when I have to, huh?

Why do we have to save water? Are we shipping it off planet? Did the hydrologic cycle suddenly end? All the water God gave us is still right here on the planet.

I guess if you have to pee, you could at least be a gentleman and close the curtain, ya’ know.
And maybe use only one sheet of poopy paper for each movement . . . who was that genius-ette rock-bozo who suggested we do that? Whatzerface?

Hard core water conservationists take the dirty dishes and the dogs into the shower with them.
[and the laundry, if there’s room]

and if you put a garbage disposal in the tub you can do your food prep while’you shower too.
