Yeah, as long as your kidneys are functioning you bodily fluids should always be at the right pH.

Also your pee has a wide normal pH range anyway. It's really hard to gently caress up your pee unless you have kidney disease or a UTI. Turns out your kidneys are really good at their jobs.

When I had my first kidney transplant, my room had a small chart on the wall of what different pee colors meant, chemically. That was absolutely the most interesting thing to 17 year old me.

I remember when I got a kidney stone my doctor prescribed a medication to help it pass. He warned me that it might make my urine have a "slight orange tint" Slight my loving rear end. I was pissing orange Gatorade. Life hack: get a kidney stone and prank your friends by putting orange piss in a Gatorade bottle and stick it in the fridge.

Haifisch posted:Also your pee has a wide normal pH range anyway. Yeah it varies a lot due to your kidneys regulating bicarb in your blood. Phenolphthalein changes to pink a bit over healthy range but that's unimportant because it's a good laxative. Was used as one before better laxatives came along.

I am genuinely enjoying this pee-talkin'. I pissed blood for about a week once. It turns out I had a kidney infection! I almost died because the doctor told me I just had my period and not to be so dramatic. Japanese medical care isn't always as good as you might expect. e: I was in the hospital for two weeks and they made me measure all of my bodily outputs. LIFEHACK: embarrass the poo poo out of someone by bursting into their hospital room and loudly saying, "HOW MANY TIMES YOU STOOL TODAY?" at them while they are talking to their boyfriend.

I was in the hospital for completely unrelated reasons but got a bad UTI while there. By the end of day three, the toilet in my room had a distinct Sunny D yellow ring in the bowl. The stuff stains porcelain. PYF Stupid Peehacks

I had a stent installed between my right kidney and my bladder for a week or so earlier this year. Not recommended. You end up peeing blood the whole time and the removal process is distinctly unpleasant.

Here is a life hack I like to do and I did it a lot as a kid. You get an avocado thats ripe, slice it up and put it into a zip lock baggie, or a plastic sandwich bag. Whatever is on hand. Then you can squish it up real easy without getting a bowl and fork dirty, and when its all squished, tip the tip off a corner of the bag. Then you can squeeze the squished avocado onto a piece of bread very neatly. That way you can have avocado on your sandwich without all the avocado slices slipping around and out your sandwich! Sandwich = hacked!

Non Serviam posted:Hey guys, how about we talk about Lifehacks instead of literally discussing your piss and poo poo Can I post a real, legit lifehack? I discovered yesterday that if you get caught in the ouroboros that is USPS's phone tree and want to talk to a real human being, the key is to say the word "agent". Figured what with the holidays and SA Secret Santas and such coming up, that might be helpful to other goons who look at their tracking and go "wtf" like I did yesterday after sending some SA-mart stuff out. As for the second part of your post: put bread tags in a blender, then sprinkle them on your food. Walla! Festive confetti poop!

Lifehack: don't want to actually interact with customers? Make them go through a tree of options so they hang up in frustration before getting to a real person. Be sure to make the hold music stop every 20 seconds for a message about how you can go online to solve the problem yourself. Only the truly dedicated people will stick around long enough to bother your employees.

I noticed on AT&T for U-verse they connect you to an operator if the bot listening to you can't understand what you're saying enough times. Just saying random poo poo that doesn't match the menu options or "Can I speak to a human?" over and over connects you to a human operator at a certain point.

I would especially advise people to heed this advice since USPS seems to be doing a dogshit job lately. I've had to call them three times for two different packages over the last couple weeks because they keep loving up. Probably going to have to raise hell again soon as I've had a package stuck at the Los Angeles ISC for almost a goddamn week now.
