    If I ever make it to the point where I have a removedin’ deck overlooking some fine wilderness then you’re damn right I’m gonna piss off it.

      I’m curious what word you tried to use. I didn’t think “fuck” was filtered on dot ml.

      “Bitchin’”?

              I mean, I can think of plenty of slurs with innocuous origins. It’s about how they’re used.

                I’m tempted to start a community about the country between Chad and Mali… A nice wholesome community… I’m completely unqualified and know nothing about it but the amount of removed words would be amusing…

                True, though “bitchin’” isn’t used as a slur in this context, it’s slang for “cool.” Since like 1970 too, it isn’t some “new rizz.”

                If we want to get technical, a slur is “A disparaging remark; an aspersion.” So by the dictionary, any negative remark, especially one that is a false or damaging accusation or insinuation, is “a slur.” Therefore “you are a silly goose” counts as a slur, as it can be contextually negative to be seen as silly, and it is false to insinuate that you are a water fowl.

                We don’t really treat the word “slur” in real life as it’s definition would suggest, or to reign in my above joke a bit, words like “fuckface” or “dick” would commonly be considered a slur. Instead they’re just considered negative remarks by the community at large, to be a “slur” in the eyes of the public (not the dictionary) it has to have something more than just “bad.”

                I posit that “bitch” is truly no different than those common “bad” words, and should not be considered a slur. Frankly, same for “cunt.”

                  No, it’s automatic based on a filter list. I wonder if it accounts for other languages though.

                  Haven’t read their policy – simply saying origin is a useless way to determine whether or not something is a slur.

                The newest example being “DEI”

                I’m sorry have y’all not seen racists using that as a slur lately? Saw a dude refer to Baltimore’s “DEI mayor” the other day

      Y’all are some of the most anti-control people around, and then… use an instance that heavily censors the naughty words you can say.

          “I see,” said the blind man
          to his deaf dog
          who was sitting on the corner of the round table
          on the third floor of their two-story building.

      The footprints in the snow that show he was still pissing off the deck.

      My only question is why does she care?

            I know… it’s pretty much written into marriage vows, “till death do us part or one of us stops pissing from the deck”. She needs to fulfill her duties and start joining him at night on the deck

              You’d have to have quite a lot of last few drops to smell up the place. Or some ridiculously potent piss.

                  No of course not. Please elaborate. Do they get similar amounts of users or something else that’s comparable?

                Not if he does it every night. A few drops after a few weeks is a fair bit and wood soaks up liquid pretty good.

                  Wood for an outside deck isn’t going to be soaking up much liquid, or the deck would turn to shit after a couple rainstorms. It’s probably pressure treated

                I’m now imagining him getting bottles of concentrated piss and pouring it off the deck in the middle of the night to deter predators.

              If Upper Decking someone is taking a dump in the toilet tank, what would pissing in the humidifier be called?

              “Watering the lawn” is about all I can come up with & I think it’s a pretty shit name. Need some more suggestions…

              Also, my brother & I had go cart growing up. One afternoon we ran that thing until engine overheated, leaving us stranded.

              Being an impatient lil redneck, my brother decided to whip it out & piss on the engine to cool it off…

              Hot piss smells fuckin awful…

      Nitrogen content in your piss is pretty high and can end up killing your grass in excess. It looks like OP’s husband pisses in two spots right beside the stairs so the nitrogen will accumulate there.

      Judging by the shrubs there could be a little garden down there the wife cares about, or she wants the habit cut so there’s not a yellow splotch that guests are being funneled between.

      … Or plain old prudery. Who truly knows~

        Unless hes literally pissing gallons a day on the same spot, or they live in a severely dry area, this is not a concern, rain and other sources like morning dew will dilute and wash it away. Plants aren’t that sensitive to it.

      In the original POST, OP says that it’s killing the shrubs down there.

      Suggestions included making a designated piss spot or moving the shrubs. Not, you know, just respecting your wife enough to not piss off the deck if asked.

      A family friend shared 2 problems she’s been dealing with since moving into her house:

      1. The ground is all clay so it’s impossible to grow anything without bringing in a crapload of dirt
      2. The septic has an issue and has to be pumped every 3 weeks

      I pointed out that clearly they need to be using the septic to fertilize the flower beds to solve both problems but for some reason she didn’t like that idea…

          The effluent filling up the leach field, then the tank, then the house, due to the surrounding clay preventing it from draining quickly enough.
