So, don't flush. Pee on a tree! It's good for the environment.

This is stupid.

Uric acid kills plants.

Go look at the brown spots on your lawn wherever your dog urinates.

So take a dump in your garden also. The smell should make your neighbors happy.

Finally! All those mason jars of urine I have stored in the basement are valuable. Take that ex-wife and your restraining order.

Urine and feces has been used as a fertilizer from the Neolithic Revolution. Human waste was collected for this purpose. Also the ammonia in urine was used to whiten fabric.

Bit off topic.. don't get PO-ed.

Just some pep for the young men.

Aquarium water is good also. Not salt water, the water from your partial water changes in a freshwater tank.
