No idea, but my curiosity is piqued.

A perfectly sound reason to celebrate, and a solid form of celebration! Piss Poker!

I know, right? I almost think if I used cards, I'd have to have a flush or a straight flush become losing hands because . . . I'm not using a toilet LOL Yup, I do that one also, except I go on odd, not even. I also have a more complex one where I hash the current time (hashing is more IT speak -- run it through a formula that messes up the outcome in a determinate, but quasi-random way), or I'll mentally go "yes, no, yes, no" etc. and whichever was the last one I said when the minute changes is the one I go with.

So, here's the setup I use and I've written about numerous times. First, I have two mattress protectors. There is a quilted mattress cover between them. Waterproofing is great, but you need to couple it with absorbency to control where your pee goes, else it will run all over the place. The quilted cover between the protectors is so that in the case of an upper-cover failure (which has happened) it still gets controlled. A second quilt goes on top of the upper cover. Beyond this, I keep two plastic bags and a towel handy. After I pee my bed (note, I do not ever wear diapers

Well, this is kind of a geeky way to approach things but I work in IT, so . . . . Sometimes when I feel like playing, I'll pull up the 2FA token on my phone. It generates a quasi-random six-digit number every thirty seconds, and the computer systems that I use it to log in to can generate the same number. If they match, it serves as proof that I'm me . . . . So I get these six-digit numbers. I take the five "best" and treat them like a poker hand. 0 is wild. The first number to be revealed after I open the app is my pants' hand. The one that comes up after that is my bladde

I've been known to do that when I'm still in bed in the morning and not really ready to get up yet, or while I am out for a walk or run, or occasionally while doing yard work.

Gonna second this one. One of my favorite moments was when I was at work, at the end of a training class I was teaching along with a very cute co-worker, and she said, "Well I am a about to pee my pants!" It took all of the professional restraint I could muster not to tell her that she's wearing black and nobody would know but me.

I have two mattress protectors, two different brands and designs, but both are zippered. There's a quilted mattress cover between them. If the upper cover fails (prone to wear and tear) the quit soaks it up and keeps it from forming a pee pocket. A quilt then goes on top of the lot, which soaks up the pee, and keeps cleanup easy. When I need to clean up, I roll up the wet quilt and stuff it into a bag, then use a towel to dry off the upper cover, and deploy a dry quilt. It takes me about ten minutes to do a complete reset. Then there's just the matter of the laundry . . . .

I'm going to need a mop and a change of pants in a minute.

I'm intrigued, but only because of the opportunity it presents. If wetting your pants becomes cool, I'm totally going to be as cool as Miles Davis.

I once forgot to take my wallet out of my pocket. That's about all I've got....

If you hadn't suggested this technique, it's exactly what I would have. It should be pretty accurate, depending on the precision of your scale (I have an electronic one that weighs in 0.1 kg increments). I also looked up what it is in the US. a gallon of water weighS 8.3 pounds, so it's probably close enough to say each pound is a pint roughly. Note that US measures are different than Imperial measures. Imperial pints are 20% larger than US pints, so if you want it in Imperial pints, multiply by 0.8.

Yeah, I hear ya. It would have been hysterical, yes, but I'm about 90% sure my Dad was listening to that show when I called in.

This is the worst thing about that period. It was so divisive that there was no avoiding getting hit with shrapnel unless you literally, and assertively, refused to talk about anything that even comes close to being political. Heh, reminds me of when a talk-show host called me (as a caller) a bed wetting liberal. I didn't say it at the time, but all I could think was, "Yes. Yes I am. What of it?"

No, sorry. I didn't really get drawn into the show, but I'd assume it was one of the first two or three.
