It’s like the duct tape of cups!
About 18 years ago I was on a job. We were demoing some pipe from over head. My partner cut the pipe halfway through, and let it hang down. I held the low part of the pipe while he cut the pipe the rest of the way through. When the pipe dropped, it hit a tool box, and whipped out of my hands and hit me on top of my head (I was wearing a hard hat), It instantly dropped me to my knees .
So, I get taken to the hospital. While there they tell me I need to do a drug test (to see if I was under the influence when I got hurt.)
About 15 minutes later, I tell them I can do the test, as I had 2 large Diet Cokes on my way to work. 10-15 minutes later, I tell them I can REALLY do the test. About 15 minutes later I tell them I NEED to do the test.
Seriously, 15 minutes later they bring me a 1 liter urine bottle. I tell them I might need another bottle, as I've had 2 large diet cokes. The nurse chuckles and says they can get me another bottle if needed. (Yeah, great. With as long as it took them to get the first one?)
So, the nurse closes the curtain (but stayed inside the curtain) I get off the gurney and turn around and do my business.
I filled the bottle right up to the neck of the top.
The nurse was amazed, as she's never seen anybody pee so much. I get back on the gurney. She opens the curtain and walks away.
A few minutes later, 2 doctors walk by, look in, and start laughing.
I guess I became the topic of conversation.
One ounce is not a serving of liquor.
Ah...you prefer to use a tree.

Could you please make that picture a little bigger? My neighbor across the street could only make out half the writing on the bottle.
Anytime, glad I could share.
