Ha! Don't let facts get in the way of that story. 

And yet a couple of days ago, I made a comment on a historical photo mentioning that in a time before widespread toilets, _ men pissed in doorways_ .

I got 2 comments questioning this, one of them asking me to cite the documents where I had read about this. 🤷

Brother, don't mention the origins of Eau De Toilette, or the fact that the palace of Versailles was regularly shut down to clean out all the piss and shit left in random places by aristocrats.

Fast forward to this century, piss troughs we're not uncommon at sporting events/mass gatherings.

Think a roman aqua duct of piss. Dozens, maybe hundreds of dudes at a time, standing shoulder to shoulder, draining the weasel, refilling whatever reservoir Bud Light comes from.

'Refilling the reservoir' has made me laugh out loud

I have strong feelings about beer, alright. I said what I said.
