Researchers found urine in every public pool they tested

In other news, water is wet. And it contains pee. No surprise here!

The research, from the University of Alberta, Edmonton, found that the average swimming pool contains 75 liters of human pee — proving true the commonly held belief that people relieve themselves underwater.

“Our study provides additional evidence that people are indeed urinating in public pools and hot tubs,” said lead study author Lindsay Blackstock, a graduate student at the university, according to the Guardian.

Why do we continue to fund and study the obvious and or the obscure. Seems like we spend way too much time and money coming up with answers to questions no one is asking or the answer involves some obscure event that no one would give a hoot about anyway.

Think about the hotel pools with a swim up bar...

Think about the hotel pools with a swim up bar...

Any time someone mentions a swim-up bar I am reminded of a Mexican vacation where I observed a 400-500 pound gringo woman become so drunk at a swim-up bar she could not climb out of the pool. Four Mexicans (hotel staff) jumped into the pool and floated the woman on her back and on a count of 3 rolled her out of the pool like a beached whale. The hotel had a floor show that night. The fat woman was fully revived and jumped up on the stage and started dancing and shaking her ass while the Mexicans tried without success to coax her off the stage. Makes me laugh just thinking about it.

My father always said that public swimming pools are public toilets.

Reminds me of the popular pool sign, "We don't swim in your toilet, so, please, don't pee in our pool."

I mean really......they needed to do a study to figure this out???

And now that this is a scientifically proven fact.......so what? It ain't gonna kill you and that's why you take a shower after you get out of the pool.
