Man Urinates In Portland Water Reservoir, City Drains 8M Gallons To Prevent Pee-Drinking

I can't really tell what I'm looking at, but there's a blue wiener in there somewhere.

21-year old Josh Seater (who, based on his name, may only pee sitting down) peed in one of Portland, Oregon's water reservoirs after a night of drinking, causing the city to flush 7.8M gallons of water out of the system, which seems ridiculous considering it's basically a giant outdoor concrete pool THAT ANY BIRD CAN SHIT AND/OR DIE IN. No lie, if you watch the security camera footage of him doing it you actually see a stray cat come running out of the pond where, at least in my mind, it was actually washing its butthole instead of licking it for once.

Cue a mass dump of water worth $28,500, a loss to which Portland Water Bureau will have to add $7,600 in "disposal fees".

The bureau's administrator, David Shaff, robustly defended the decision to ditch the entire contents. He asked: "Do you want to drink pee?"

Whoa whoa whoa -- do I want to, or would I? Because those are two totally different answers. Jk jk, I'm kinky and I own rubber sheets. Hell, I'd squeeze and drink the juice out of an elephant turd. You know, if I was in a life or death situation. Or at the zoo and dared.

Hit the jump for footage of the pisser and a video news report. Cat comes running out at 0:12.

Thanks to Rev Dr Dom, who pees where he damn well pleases and doesn't care who drinks it.

  This is a commercial for LG's new 21:9 UltraWide monitor that's allegedly so lifelike that if it plays a video of some chicks looking at you while you're trying to pee it makes it super hard to open your floodgates. Presumably the guys all knew they were being filmed because r... / Continue →
