Are you even sciencing if you don't drink some piss you found in a beaker somewhere?

Observation: this looks like piss} Question: is this piss?} Hypothesis: this is probably piss} Experiment: drink the piss} Analysis: tastes like piss} Conclusion: it’s piss

Sometimes it be like that.

could also check for urea content, or proteins, but sure why not drink it

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

I mean, drinking it (well tasting) used to be the legit way of testing it.

Yeah, check for all of that using the high fidelity, self calibrating sensory cluster.

Inconclusive: the data is also a perfect fit for domestic American light beer.

How do you know it tastes like piss if you've never tasted piss before?

Better piss in a cup and taste it to make sure we get a nice baseline.

Piss + THF

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Worse health-wise, but probably not worse in how disgusting one would think it is to drink.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Well, you could say beer is yeast piss.

I'll have another (lab brewed yeast piss. From malted grain. Sometimes with hops)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

"Sinking piss" is Australian for drinking.

malted grain

You mean aborted barley fetuses?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

My mistake!

Roasted fetal barley abortions.

Thanks for the wake up
