    Doesn't matter what I do or what I've done in the past.

    Good day, sir. I'm not going to entertain you anymore.

    Yes, and I have not EVER pissed n a bottle. On the shoulder, yes. Behind a tree in the middle of nowhere with no bathroom available, yes. In a Porta pot in 100 degree heat, yes. There is no reason, at all, ever, to piss in a bottle in your truck. How long have I been out here, 4 years driving. Since about 3 years old as a passenger every chance I got to go along with dad. I've been 8 years old and pissed off the passenger step while we were pulled over by a trooper in Iowa, there is no reason, at all, EVER, to piss in a bottle in your truck. That's just nasty behavior.

    Sir, I must respectfully disagree. If you've been caught in a traffic jam in one of our wonderful metroplexes (Chicago, LA, anywhere in the Northeast) and been stuck for hours, you either use a bottle or hang it out the window and have some Karen have a screaming fit, call the cops and have you charged as a sex offender.

    I've been out here driving 21 years longer than you, and I do believe it's a far different world than when you were a youngster.
     
    DoubleO7 and Gary Muldewski Thank this.

    I've sat through a couple hour traffic cluster in Chicago as a 6 year old kid. I was in NYC when I was 12 with him, we were about half a mile from the statue of liberty at some golf course/resort under construction, picking up a 40 foot chunk of pipe. I have a pretty good idea what it's like. I stand by my original statement and it's still nasty behavior.
     
    AModelCat Thanks this.

    I can't fit in a bottle.

    But I carried cups and a bucket.

    People have died holding their wee. Ask that one radio station. They got sued.

    I forget where. But it was a contest to which a lady won. And died 8 hours later.

    The lady was Jennifer Strange, and the station was somewhere in Kalifornia, IIRC.
