... Well, whaddaya know, I'm actually one of those fortunate folks who not only have to collect urine en masse..., but as a medical technologist (who run med. test on body fluids) I actually have to play with the thing for a living! ;O) (for the record, you can see some of the coolest crystals around in urine samples... especially if the owner of the urine has been on a drug binge).

O... I wouldn't call this an 'Off Topic' review, tho.. (but then I'm quite lax). I love the fun take on it. Thanks for the good read!

Cheers,
Smorg :O)

That's the funniest "Not Helpful" review I've ever read. Come back.

How did I miss this one?
Rich - you had me laughing the whole time, but when I got to that Uretha Franklin part I really hurt myself!
How could I not VH it? I figure that with your sense of humor, your wife and kids must be peeing in there pants all the time - that sort of makes you an expert on the topic, right?

I usually write in movies and books or occassionally music... but when I accidentally venture over into the dark nether regions of Health & Beauty or Kids & Family, I get NH'd before I even hit the enter button on the rough draft...

You could've put every conceivable piece of important information about incontinence that exists (should I collect it in a cup? A paper one? A shoe? Someone's hat? through my sunroof??) and still not get good ratings here because you added humor.

Robots can't respond to humor. It isn't in their programming.
(Yeah, I said it, so sue me...)

Anyway, This was great. Thanks for making ME smile anyway... lol

hey there again...

Geese, you take the one serious moment in there and make your reply all about that . . .I am feeling particularly non-humourous right now.

Off-site, RL stuff, nothing Epinions-related oh Master...

The rating is just fine, Tom.

I understand that some folks here take the place seriously, and that's O.K.

It was fun to write and maybe, just for a moment, it put a smile on someone's face.

That's good enough for me.

Told ya someone would pimp yur azz...

you said...
"(I think they teach you how to do that when you join one of those fancy rich peoples’ clubs. Kind of like a secret handshake or something.)"

Actually they teach you the secret shake for . . .well, you know, . . .your 'thing'. For when you are done peeing I mean. You shake your thang wrong and you are outta there...


I debated over my rate, Rich. You know how seriously I take this stuff. Despite the countless hours of therapy. And the hours spent at your side, learning the mysterious ways of all things Epinions. I am your 'Grasshopper'. I will snatch the pebbles from your outstretched palm...someday...when I am worthy.

Hell I even rated it 'VH' thinking my 'powerful manly rate' could override some of the 'OTs' already there. I was impotent, Rich. The baby didn't budge off 'Not Helpful'.

So I switched it back to OT and buried this crap from the sensitive eyes of net surfers everywhere and evermore. Hey 'go with the front-runner' is my philosophy...


Do know my typical work-day is spent awash in urine. I do quite a bit of urine drug-screen testing most days. Cups and cups and cups of the golden elixir flow across my workbench. Well, some more 'golden' than others, if you know what I mean. (And don't ask if you do not...)


I am sure your thoughts have helped many here at Epinions. You give and you give and you give and we take and we take and we take. I don't know how in the hell that works out for you but we sure luvz it !!

And the only quote I found with 'urine' in it. . .well, not _in_ it...

You actually wrote (re snow writing):

Everybody knows women can’t write for squat.

And then they got worse.

Lordy, I wonder how much of this I can steal.

hmm. haven't heard of this kinda of product but there is a market for used underwear on Ebay. I tried convincing some male friends of mine to go into business with me. They produce and box up the product and I'd sell it for them

didn't have any takers but it was worth a shot.

Uh, Uh...

Couldn't we just swap spit or something first?

I hesitate to enter into these long term commitments based on a single comment.

Thanks for reading.

If you are that certain, why don't you pee on something and mail it to Nirav.

I understand he's always looking for a good investment.

He'll thank you for it.

Topic seemed right to me.

Don't understand the problem here. Urine collection is urine collection. Really thought I nailed it dead on.

Go figure.

But only because I’m a soft touch and want to help those poor young women pay their medical or law school tuition. It’s like an investment in this country’s future. Besides, they make the cutest aromatic little caps!

This whole piece was filled with such gems. Marry me.

You didn't pee?

Only almost? (Not to be confused with Edward James Olmos, although they might be related)

Guess I should have written a litle bit more.

MJ,

I was thinking of getting into the incontinence protection racket myself.

If folks don't give me a payoff once a month, I'll track them down and pee on 'em.

I think you did a pretty good job with the way the category was listed. Thanks for making me laugh; I really needed some humor after the day I have had!

Take care and happy writing,

Don't throw those diapers away!

What if your kids become famous?

Hang on to them. But not too tightly. They'll probably leak all over you.

I think these evil ratings I'm getting are a reflection of folks' discrimination against the fine but misunderstood hobby of pee collecting.

I guess I'd better not write about my pubic hair collection.

by rich2003dm
Well, Dwight, these categories are just too confusing for an old addled brained guy like me. I think I should have posted this in Travel.

After all, it's not about being overseas but in continent.

Maybe I'll move it.

You'll have to get in line to report me.

I have real enemies who are probably doing just that right now.

Thanks for reading.

Melissa,

Don't sweat the rating. People usually track me down and slap me for stuff like this. I can handle an "Off-topic" rating. Feels like I got off easy.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Susan,

I guess I'm O.K. with being a diuretic. Could have been worse. I could have been a suppository.

Thanks for stopping by.

After a long, hard day at work... (Reply to this comment)
by mjfrombuffalo
... I come home to read: Well, I guess this hobby will probably make those Old Timers’ games a lot more popular. Those old farts probably leak so much they could cause a rain delay.

And you made me laugh hard enough to pee!

Seriously, what a stupid name for a category. What about "How to chose incontinence protection" - although that could lead to someone coming up with a new type of insurance policy...
