Ick. I saw something on the Discovery Channel last night about this type of insanity. Apparently, not only is drinking urine good for you, but use as eye-drops, ear-drops and skin treatment work wonders as well. I'll stick to beer thank you.

"It's ME - Lionel Joseph from Cameroon!"

"For several years now, I haven't had a hair on my head, but since I started drinking my urine, it's started growing again - it's quite extraordinary," the French news agency, AFP, quoted an unnamed magistrate as saying

This statement alone will have chrome domes world wide suckin down yellow slurpies at a frantic pace.

LandoGriffin Some may argue that there is no difference between the two. I give you my favorite 20th centure philosopher, Archie Bunker: "You don't buy beer, you just rent it."

I guess so:

CBS is making a series about a private detective agency comprised of piss drinkers called "Cameroonlighting"

Uhhhhhh.....

Budweiser sales plummet.

Well, my vacation plans are ruined.

Urine therapy has been around for hundres (if not thousands) of years.

And if you're in half-way decent health, urine is sterile when it leaves the body. Although drugs can be passed through urine, so it's not a good idea to drink it if you're sick or uh....recreationalizing...

Urine...The Other Yellow Drink!

Actually, the ancient Romans believed in the health benefits of urine, including using it in combination with vinegar to brush one's teeth. Hence, the expression "full of piss and vinegar" is with us to this day.

What a cameroon

And this is the nation whose vote we need for another UN Iraq resolution? Yay for multilateralism.

"It's ME - Lionel Joseph from Cameroon!"

Every time you drink a glass of piss...

Urine..It's whats for breakfast!

/Nothin

"For several years now, I haven't had a hair on my head, but since I started drinking my urine, it's started growing again - it's quite extraordinary,"

So..how many of the folicly challenged are going to go home tonight and chug a pint or two of pee juice over this one?

/horrible mental images...make them go away.

In other news... Sh*t eating is still ok. Japanese scat-porn surrenders.

Why do I know this?

Oh, and to all you "urine therapy" people: Do you also condone the medical use of leeches? or "cupping"? How about exorcism for schizophrenia? How about we just beat the demons out of sick people?

While I am not %100 certain of all modern medicine, I think we can safely say that drinking one's own urine is probably ill advised under almost any circumstance.

Is it your own, personal urine, or from a different source?

DrLearned
Oh. So you're supposed to drink you're own urine?.... I musta missed that part...

So they've banned american beer?

That's a shame

The name says it all "CA - MEROON".
But seriously, I heard there's something like this in India with Cow's urine. YIKES.

Commodore69: Awesome

New and improved!! Golden Shower Soda!! (banned in Cameroon)

For the first seven seconds after it has left your body, urine is fully sterile. After that the bacteria starts to take over.

Don't ask. Learned it in biology class.

How about a nice, warm mug...

Ghandi drank his own piss every day apparently.
I'm not sure about Ben Kingsley though.

I don't get it. Do you just wake up one day and go "I wonder if drinking my piss will make my hair grow?" Call me unadventerous but I just don't go there.

What's next? "Hmmm, I wonder. If I eat my own sh!t will I get the extra vitamins that my colon didn't absorb?"

/shudders

I don't drunk urine, but why the hell ban it. Who cares if some people like to drink it. Damn nazi cameronians!

Regarding taste & smell.

Friend drove drunk, crashed car against fencepost, lost eye & sense of smell and taste.

He could eat sh!t like it was chocolade pudding, he said. Imagine that. He says he no longer feels the need for candy, chocolate, sodas.

Thank God I live in America! I'm FREE to drink my own piss!

Remember when that south east asian country prohibited people from getting high off cow's ass? maybe it could be the same reason!

Ghandi drank his own piss every day? Howcome he's still bald?

Years ago my girlfriend told me she heard about this urine therapy, and that she had started drinking hers.

Our relationship didn't last too much longer...

I'll stick to eating my boogers, the skin next to my fingernails, and my scabs, thank you very much.


...What?

Stop looking at me.

"Urine therapy refers to one of several uses of urine to prevent or cure sickness, to enhance beauty or to cleanse one's bowels. Most devotees drink the midstream of their morning urine. Some prefer it straight and steaming hot; others mix it with juice or serve it over fruit. Some prefer a couple of urine drops mixed with a tablespoon of water applied sublingually several times a day. Some wash themselves in their own golden fluid to improve their skin quality. Many modern Japanese women are said to engage in urine bathing. The truly daring use their own urine as an enema. Urine is not quite the breakfast of champions, but it is the elixir of choice of a number of holy men in India where drinking urine has been practiced for thousands of years."

(Skeptics Dictionary on Urine)

DAMN THIS JUST WRONG!!

GGGAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!

They're taking the piss.

"I used it to treat my haemorrhoids," Emile told Cameroon newspaper, Le Messager.

*chortle*

Well...it tastes better than Budweiser.
