That is nuts. I've seen some crazy stuff in lift stations (never enough screening or grinders), but bedsheets?

Does your city have combined storm/sanitary sewer?
Sometimes even when I understand the design of sewer systems it blows my mind what manages to get in.

I remember when I moved to El Paso both my grandparents were convinced I was moving to a warzone. It had the double whammy of being a scary city AND right next to Mexico. Instead it was a safer and nicer (people wise) city than Colorado Springs at times.

Anyways this is the most "old man yells at cloud" thing I have said but it isn't even a "kids these days" thing, one of the couples was old as hell

I hate this so much because I love the concept of earth ships but the more I learned about engineering, air quality, etc etc etc, the worse of an idea it seemed all around

I've climbed in temps from 30-110 and shorts are so not an option. I've worn them at the gym, but outdoors? Ouch

Green for beer will also give you green pee depending on the dye, I'm already seeing how this could work

Off topic but does your WWTP have a "weird shit found in screens" collection? I have to go to a lot of wwtps for for work and two of the six I've been to had collections of weird stuff (post rinse)

Yeah, I ate a lot of microwave meals as a kid because my parents both worked long hours, and the options nowadays are so much better.

If it's by a door maybe you have a cat neighbors let outdoors in the summer that stresses yours out? My cat always pees by the door when she gets stressed at something happening outside.
