No it's not. Whoever told you that is feeding you a myth.
I've worked at a medical laboratory where I did the daily urinalyses. After sitting in sterile collection bottles for most of the night, the urine reeked with ammonia (caused by bacteria).
A whole flock of ducks can land and crap in the resavour and it doesn’t hurt a thing.
A couple of kids pee in it and they come unscrewed.
If they peed in it every day it wouldn’t hurt a thing.
“Isn’t urine sterile?”
I’m sure it is, I was changing a transmission years ago while drinking beer and a “friend” of mine refilled my quart with pee and didn’t tell me until I drank the whole thing.
I didn’t have any ill effects.
Geez...at least we refrigerated the bottle of urine we gave a drunk friend during a poker game.
Say what you will, but Fran Drescher was so hot back then.
It’s not what you call affirmative action know nothings.
It’s worse. It’s privileged white liberal males. LOL
The city commissioner is a guy by the name of FISH.
You can’t make this stuff up.
Actually it could be more than 95% water.
In the meantime, this kid, this Deuce Bigelow wanna-be, is now enjoying a much richer life with his female circle of friends. He’s a hero.
POWs in North Vietnam, several of whom were/are MDs. Maybe we’re talking “fresh” urine?
As a physical chemist with a baccalaureate minor in medical technology, I am well aware that the specific gravity of urine can be significantly lower. And, I'm also aware that the ordinary bladder content volume is normally much less than 300 ml.
I chose the first, because it was readily illustrated, and the second, because it was the farthest from exaggerating the minuteness of the offense, which I was demonstrating. A fallback to more nominal values, if I were challenged, could easily render the offense an order of magnitude even smaller than I stated.
That's called, "scientific conservatism".

As to your second statement, I take it as a clear sign of the degradation of feminine sensitivity and sense in recent generations. How absurd! In prior generations, the miscreant would have been shunned as a nasty, antisocial deviant who deliberately offended the sensibilities (if not the health) of the community in which he lived. And the sensibilities and the outrage would have been maximum in his female peers.
What a sad (and disgusting) commentary on the young "ladies" [sic] of the current teen generation IF their reaction is the polar opposite!
And, IF those happen to be your attitudes, as well -- then you reek with the rest!! </CURMUDGEONMODE> '-)
You might want to highlight the remainder of comment #90 — starting immediately after the last exclamation point... ‘-)
Ain’t that a wicked pissah!
DANG!
She was hot in The Nanny, too!
