    Ricky Gervais tells a joke about living with his wife in a little studio apartment, and in the middle of the night it was closer to pee in the sink.

    One night he was doing that, when his wife woke and groggily said “At least move the dishes first.”

        I can already hear Gervais going into his “sorry if I offended you with my incredibly funny jokes, I guess I’ll take all my comedy money and go home” routine.

        Almost as funny as Dave Chappelle doing a Netflix special where he rants about getting cancelled. Or the sound of mid-40s Jerry Seinfeld fucking a 17-year-old while he complains about antisemitism on college campuses.

        Worst thing in the world for comedy is a successful comedian.

    Me, learning my friend washes out the litter box in the shower. I now no longer trust cat people.

      I don’t really see the problem here. Unless you think homeopathy actually works I guess. Or does that friend not wash and rinse the shower after ?

        Yeah, I have no idea what the best procedure would be, but I think the only things to worry about are foot fungus (no idea if there’s any risk, but your feet are very much touching the shower floor) and rinsing the soap if you drop it when showering? Like, you wash your ass in that shower, it’s not like it’s a clean clean environment anyways.

          Yeah and if I’m cleaning a litter box in here (or, idk, rinsing the ol’ puke basin after someone got sick) I’m giving it a wipe with some javel.

        That’s kind of the entire issue - I’d hope for a full bleach scrub after that, but hosing it off outside would just be so much quicker than a deep clean of the shower, so I feel like there’s some conflicting incentives here which suggest a deep clean is not certain.

        But more to the point, psychological cleanliness is not always entirely rational. For me the shower is kind of a sacred clean area, so any attitude which includes using it as a utility sink for feces-adjacent activities conflicts with that on the surface. By the time I’m thinking “how well do they clean it afterwards?” That core psychological safety has already been compromised to some degree. Likewise, a shower with soap scum and discolored tile and dingy fixtures would make most people feel “less clean” even though there is not rational health issues from some simple deferred maintenance. Most people feel “cleaner” when the shower itself appears clean. Knowledge that the shower is not used as a utility sink is exactly the same.

          And what do you expect people to do who live in an apartment? Not everybody has a hose and an outside.

            Not have a cat? Use the landscaper’s hose? IDK I’m pretty clearly describing a personal psychological boundary for myself, not a universal truth. You are obviously free to use your shower for whatever purpose you want, just as I am free to be disgusted by it.

          Showers are a disgustingly dirty place. Tons of people don’t notice they let mold grow or don’t care. Worse, in the western world it’s always next to the toilet.

      Dude.

      Ok. first of all all the litter is scooped out first. You’re basically scrubbing a flat tub in the shower. Do you think litter and turds are being dumped out on the floor and hosed down the drain??

      Secondly that shower has seen a lot fuckin’ worse than some litter dust.

      There are allegations that such communities encourage fringe, unsanitary behavior (such as diaper use) and circlejerk around it but it’s all a trolling operation and they laugh at anyone who gets swayed to actually participate.

        I think about this probably every month.

        “Any community that gets its laughs by pretending to be idiots will eventually be flooded by actual idiots who mistakenly believe that they’re in good company.”

        I used to read hilarious shit on r/sinkpissers as most people were joking. Kinda like the sub about drunk driving. It slowly evolved though. Last time I used Reddit almost all of the new posts on r/sinkpissers were serious and involved actual pissing in the sink.

    I might piss in a sink if all the toilets and urinals were being used and I had to go so badly that I was about to piss my pants. If I were in a private residence, I would just piss on the ground outside.

    What a ridiculous wife!

    Does she really think that forcing him into therapy is going to fix anything rather than just make him more sneaky? He’s on an online community for pissing in the sink ffs. He’s made it part of his identity rather than just a disgusting habit.

    Responding “its not hurting anyone…” when your wife has this sort of reaction.

    wife’s contact named “mrs”

    Yikes.

    “you cunt”

    wife’s contact named “mrs”

    Confirmed Aussie and degen.

      I mean the wife is obviously throwing an unnecessarily large fit over this, not sure what even to say in that moment. Might’ve tried to let her vent for a little while longer before replying tbh

        I think pissing in the sink consistently is pretty gross. Unless you’re cleaning/disinfecting it thoroughly after and let’s be honest, if someone’s too lazy to walk to a toilet to piss; they ain’t doing that. It’s likely the idea of someone being a “sink pisser” is the bigger thing here, so finding out that your partner is one (a slob) is probably what led to the reaction.

        Bringing up what you think about a partners reaction to something can happen later. Saying “it isn’t hurting anyone” is marginalising her feelings instead of understanding what lead to it and is unhealthy/unhelpful imo. It’s a cop out. I could scoot my bare arse across the carpet in lieu of toilet paper and say it isn’t hurting anyone (ignoring carpet burn). Wouldn’t make it not gross as fuck. That’s not to say she’s chosen the most effective method for voicing her issue but that’s an aside.

        not sure what even to say in that moment

        I’d suggest he start with apologising for pissing somewhere that is not the designated piss zone, aka a toilet and go from there.
