its only urine. dogs pee all over the place. beach, parks and nobody has any issues. a human pees and its a catastrophe!!

get real.

Pee Party! Alas I couldn't find the relevant Senfeld clip.

PeePot Dome Scandal?

So Barrett Pissman Brandon or Barrett Brandon Pissman?

The guy who pissed on the concrete so everyone had to run through it.

Whilst we're on the subject of public decency, how about avoiding such sexist language. Is it unfair to expect more from such "august" members?

If a pro is at the point where there are 5 to 8 people at each port-a-pottie, then he is obviously at a point where speed is not the biggest concern he or she should have in the event. If that is the case then taking the time to void oneself properly is the proper thing to do.

I was thinking just Piss Dome, but this one is better.

Whoa whoa whoa. This is ST! I'm supposed to have a point? :P

It's pretty shitty that human beings can't act like human beings, whether it's inappropriate pissing or smoking, and shitty that we actually have to spell stuff like this out. On signs, no less.

[quote motoguy128 FWIM... The study also showed that the levels are very low and bacteria has been found in many other human tissues at similar levels. So human are not at all sterile on the inside, anywhere. So maybe more accurately, urine is probably comparably or still has significantly lower bacteria levels than "clean" drinking water.[/quote]
Quite. The US Army still recommends it for field treatment, FM 3-05.70 survival manual, ch 4,
"rinse the wound with large amounts of water under pressure. You can use fresh urine if water is not available."

Also in maggot therapy:
"flush the wound repeatedly with sterile water or fresh urine to remove the maggots."
which gives one to think.. and be grateful for hospitals and disinfectants..

Though I agree, pissing on the floor is gross, rude, crude and socially unacceptable.

I had no idea the women's changing tents were such a battle zone, blood and bodily fluids all over, though a moment's thought would have been enough.. eish.

Wait for the shake!!!

LOL!!

Since when has the slang for being a coward been sexist? I can only assume that this is the context in use above.

On the internet, you can be anything you want. It is a pity so many people choose to be stupid.

This thread is really making me rethink my volunteer assignment for IMFL. I actually chose T2 change tent because those are the volunteers I remember most from my IM's. Everyone else is interchangeable to me, but if you are hurting in T2, someone helping you there can be a daysaver.

But if any of you piss on me I'm going to hide your shoes.

We might be so ever so slightly less fucked.

Dude, it's 2014. People go ballistic when you lean your chair back in an airplane.

You have people volunteering to help you do a race. You piss on the pavement where they have to work all day long for nothing, helping people like you. You expect them to not be a tad unhappy about that?

Miriam-Webster refers to the slang version of "pussy" as meaning a weak or cowardly man or boy. So unless you are referring to the sexism of calling men or boys weak or corwardly, then you are off base here.

There are other uses of the word including the adjective to describe pus, a vulgar term for female body part, or a feline.

There is an old joke in medicine. How do you spell "pussy"? P-I-R-U-L-E-N-T.

Really? I'm the only one that thinks it's distasteful for a judge to use a derogatory term in a public forum. The word clearly equates male weakness with a slang term for female anatomy. It's sexist, period. It's disingenuous to suggest that the word might be intended to be pronounced as to refer to something filled with pus. I just found this to be pretty ironic as the OP is calling for decorum (rightly so in the incident described, but also the case in his own choice of words).

Was the joke also that you spelled "Purulent" wrong? ;)

No, the word (in this context) clearly does not have anything to do with the female anatomy. Nor has it anything to do with pus as you have rightly pointed out. Try looking the word up in the online dictionaries whilst remembering the context to which it is in use.

That made me laugh out loud.

If you are offended by it, why does matter if it's a judge specifically?? Not sure how that is even important to your argument.

Can a mod change the title of this thread to Pee Pot Dome Scandal please.

Dogs also screw all over the place....beaches, parks, etc. So according to your logic, that's okay for human behavior also??? Why don't you get real?

You're incorrect. Check the OED and I will leave it at that. I'd rather not get into a discussion of semantics on a triathlon board. As to why it matters that it's a judge? As I mentioned before, it's ironic in the context of the original post and his being referred to as an august member of the community.
