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

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 20 points 2 years ago

Sometimes it be like that.

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

[–] FarFarAway@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

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

[–] kinkles@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago

same thing

[–] ulterno@lemmy.kde.social 5 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

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.

Thats my schoolmate, he licks everything. Including liquid nitrogen.

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 2 years ago (3 children)

This is probably worse than piss.

Piss + THF

[–] M137@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] EarthShipTechIntern@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years 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)

[–] prex@aussie.zone 6 points 2 years ago

"Sinking piss" is Australian for drinking.

[–] Enkrod@feddit.org 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

malted grain

You mean aborted barley fetuses?

[–] EarthShipTechIntern@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

My mistake!

Roasted fetal barley abortions.

Thanks for the wake up
