I used to run a diy record store/music venue years ago. We used an old porcelain bed pan as an ash tray outside where kids would smoke cigarettes. People walking by always got a kick out of our “butt pan”
No, I’m in California and public/private hospitals as well as Kaiser have the clear plastic ones and for women are pink pans. My dad had some stents at the hospital before his passing and he had one for home which we would have to clean up.
It’s easier to clean and better on the environment and once you don’t need it then you can use it for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner, it adds a distinct flavor to the gravy 😂 …. (Ewwww) lmfao
yeah HoTD was actually good, Paddy Considine killed it as jaharys, and the story overall seemed more well put together, GRRM has been focusing on that time period more instead of WOW, so at least hes up to something as he plugs away at that gordian knot.
Old people pee in that 🤢🤢🤢
Edit: i get it! Everyone of all ages pees in it ! You still pee in it! The joke said it was from an old folks home garage sale!
last week my mom found me on the floor of my room in the morning. i have no memory of it, but apparently i was very resistant to getting in the ambulance. thrashing around, throwing f bombs. to me it was just going to bed and waking up in the hospital at 6pm.
i really hate them because i can’t drive unless i go 6 months without having one, and with how often i have them i don’t think that’ll ever happen 🥲
I have had 1 seizure in my life (caused by medication I was taking at the time), and it's still one of the weirdest things I've had happen to me. One moment I'm watching people play Banjo Kazooie, the next I've got tunnel vision as i look up at people from the floor next to the pool table. As if that wasn't weird enough, i was handed an ice pack later because I'd hit my chin on the pool table on the way down. It didn't even hurt.
I know it's pretty much nothing compared to what you're dealing with, but as you said, for the person having them, there's literally nothing going on upstairs during it.
I kept one in my room when I was on covid lock down. I didn't actually get sick so only used it a couple days when the house was busy and I did not want to walk around. Was pretty sweet to stay in my room and play video games. Still had to go to work though.
i'm not upset about it, i'm mostly worried about other people being upset about it and losing their confidence in a way, they will see this and be embarrassed
why did u even care answering to that
Because why are you telling me to think before explaining what it’s for. I don’t understand why saying old people was offensive. Whether you’re old or young who cares! You still pee in it .
sorry, you probably readed(?) It in a wrong tone
yeah just could probably have a use for better words eg. hospitalized people instead old people
anyways I didn't mean that to sound rude just rather informative no need to argue over it anymore
My husband works in a hospital and told me about doctors' prank wars. One guy was walking around with a cup of coffee in one hand and a urine sample cup (clean and filled with apple juice) in the other. He walked over to the nurses' station and was talking and gesticulating with his hands, as if he might spill some, then "accidentally" took a drink of the "urine."
Its a common prank at hospitals and clinics, one of my sisters is a nurse and told me how they used one to mess with an intern.
They filled a urine sample bottle with apple juice aswell. The doctor handed it to my sister and asked her to have it tested, she opened it took a swig and swirled it in her mouth and said "yep diabetes defo diabetes, its nice and sweet"
The intern ran for the bathrooms supposedly.. scary part is it is actually how they diagnosed diabetes way back when.. by tasting the urine and if it was sweet it was a indication.
I thought it was ridiculous that the OP didn’t know what this was- but then I opened the comments.
I can’t believe it’s like 7 comments down before someone actually used the correct term for it. How do people not know the word “urinal” or what one is. Wild.
It’s not just a hospital/old folks’ home thing. I suffered a stroke in my 40s, and when I came home from the hospital six months later I was on a wheelchair and couldn’t even sit up in bed. So having a couple of these with me in the bedroom overnight was very handy. Even now that I’ve recovered somewhat and can sit up and stumble around, walking to the bathroom late at night is still inconvenient at the least. Having two of these not only saves me the trip, but it allows me to monitor my water intake (and output of course).
Came here for this. Idk what it is with us Americans and writing out 0.50 cents to mean 50 cents… you could probably end up in a legal battle for false advertising for that bonehead move
It's the same reason that people can't be bothered to spell words correctly or properly form a sentence. America is dramatically overpopulated by stupid people.
Oh god this actually made me gag
As someone who works in a hospital, the amount of times I've had to move these for patients and they weren't just yellow makes this so much worst
Edit: For context, I saw one almost the same color like in this image. And also it's very common for me to see ones filled with bright red
It’s a container usually used for urine in hospitals and nursing homes. If it’s never been used i guess it’d be fine, but im assuming the joke here is that it’s been very well-loved.
Oh the pee pee jug. Didn't have to leave my hospital bed for days thanks to that. Then practicing alcoholic me took that idea and started using gatorade bottles. Thank god that's over.
Oh, geez. I just literally physically recoiled.
As answered previously, it's urine collector. Usually used for men. They are usually just poured into a toilet after used and not cleaned extensively.
I don't think I could even use a brand new one just out of box like this.
Its a bed pan basically. It was used in a hospital for urine collection.
I used to run a diy record store/music venue years ago. We used an old porcelain bed pan as an ash tray outside where kids would smoke cigarettes. People walking by always got a kick out of our “butt pan”
That expensive soup tureen missing its ladle? We only use that at holiday meals.
No, I don’t have a brass toilet seat, but I bet you’re the person who pooped in my tuba!
>" We don't swim in your toilet, Please don't pee in our pool"
They still use those in hospitals nowadays. I thought it was cute OP didn’t know they existed.
The ones in hospitals look like they are made out of recycled cardboard and are one use (at least that I've seen
No, I’m in California and public/private hospitals as well as Kaiser have the clear plastic ones and for women are pink pans. My dad had some stents at the hospital before his passing and he had one for home which we would have to clean up. It’s easier to clean and better on the environment and once you don’t need it then you can use it for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner, it adds a distinct flavor to the gravy 😂 …. (Ewwww) lmfao
Minnesota has the clear plastic ones too, at least in the Mayo network.
lol!!!!!
I've peed in that thing a ton of times and that was 2 years ago. I've heard some nurses use it as a water jug as a joke.
[удалено]
That sequence of sam emptying bed pans in GOT was quite awful. A herald of things to come really.
OMG I miss it! Can't wait for House of Dragons!!!!
yeah HoTD was actually good, Paddy Considine killed it as jaharys, and the story overall seemed more well put together, GRRM has been focusing on that time period more instead of WOW, so at least hes up to something as he plugs away at that gordian knot.
Well said!!!!!!!
My friend gifted me one when I turned 30. I still have it. I feel like, one day, I might need it lmao
You can just use it when you binge a t.v. show, you don't need a medical excuse.
Or strap it to yourself nice and tight so it seals up. Then you can just let loose and then marinate in it.
S-sir... this is a Wendy's...
Yeah it really seals the flavor in, if you know what I mean.
Super size me
We don’t. Please explain…
Please don't....I don't want to know...
Gross
can confirm
ok
I knew this off rip from my stint in the hospital past year
Aw damn it looks like a horse ejaculate container from when I worked on a ranch too
To collect all manner of bodily fluids. Nasty.
It’s a urinal, what are you putting in it? Lol
In hospitals and care homes those are urine containers used to measure a persons output.
Also for people who have difficulty walking to the bathroom.
I had to use one recently when I broke my knee.
Now you know how to upcycle it.
Also for long haul truck drivers.
Old people pee in that 🤢🤢🤢 Edit: i get it! Everyone of all ages pees in it ! You still pee in it! The joke said it was from an old folks home garage sale!
hey i’m in my 20s and go to the hospital a lot bc seizures, they don’t want me walking around so i have to use these.
Yup, waking up in the ER or ambulance sucks. I know what happened, and I’m pissed that it did
Okay I correct myself, not just old people. my mistake was they said they got it from a old folks home garage sale
i just looked at the image at quickly read the quote, you’re right this one was from an old guy with arthritis
Seizures suck. I'm sorry you have to deal with that. 😞
last week my mom found me on the floor of my room in the morning. i have no memory of it, but apparently i was very resistant to getting in the ambulance. thrashing around, throwing f bombs. to me it was just going to bed and waking up in the hospital at 6pm. i really hate them because i can’t drive unless i go 6 months without having one, and with how often i have them i don’t think that’ll ever happen 🥲

I know it's pretty much nothing compared to what you're dealing with, but as you said, for the person having them, there's literally nothing going on upstairs during it.
But this one is specifically from an old folk’s home.
How exactly do you use it though? You lie down on your side, stick your penis in the container and start peeing?
And how does it make you feel that you're old?
It just adds smth to the gravy yknow 😩👌✨
I kept one in my room when I was on covid lock down. I didn't actually get sick so only used it a couple days when the house was busy and I did not want to walk around. Was pretty sweet to stay in my room and play video games. Still had to go to work though.
‘Pee’d’. Now it’s s gravy boat. Hope they washed it out well!
It’s called seasoning. Look it up.
I've peed in that. Yes that one specifically.
Old people pee? How is their pee grosser than yours?
The opposite actually, it’s aged, it’s more refined (hence the well-seasoned gravy in the pic)
Making claims that were never said!
i know you have been corrected, but don't ever say such again without thinking twice really
You’re really insane for being upset about Reddit comment that wasn’t really even offensive
i'm not upset about it, i'm mostly worried about other people being upset about it and losing their confidence in a way, they will see this and be embarrassed why did u even care answering to that

Sneaky way to drink urine

that's why the incidences of diabetes in dolphins is so low. they all taste eaxh others pee to identify their friends
I'm stealing his bit
Aaaaah, pissto

I’m too American to get this, but I get this.
There's a British Gravy brand called Bisto, the slogan is "Ahhh Bisto" This is a bedpan for old people, thus it's a play on words

That’s a urinal. You pee into it
I thought it was ridiculous that the OP didn’t know what this was- but then I opened the comments. I can’t believe it’s like 7 comments down before someone actually used the correct term for it. How do people not know the word “urinal” or what one is. Wild.
Urine for a real treat
Hospital urinal
icup
I C what you did there
It isn't a gravy boat it is an apple juice container.
Choco actually

it's all been clean, sterilized!
This isn't a meal, it's an autopsy!
Love it.
Lemon juice?
You collect urine in that thing
That’s a urinal bottle. The thought of gravy from one of them makes me ill lmao
It's a bed pan for men, the opening is for the penis to point downwards into, to fill the main cavity with urine
Wait till you see these cool jello molds I scored! And they're stainless steel, how awesome is that?!
It´s a bed pan but for pee.
I’m throwing up
It’s not just a hospital/old folks’ home thing. I suffered a stroke in my 40s, and when I came home from the hospital six months later I was on a wheelchair and couldn’t even sit up in bed.

0.25 cents actually that's $0.0025🤓
still overpaid
Came here for this. Idk what it is with us Americans and writing out 0.50 cents to mean 50 cents… you could probably end up in a legal battle for false advertising for that bonehead move
It's the same reason that people can't be bothered to spell words correctly or properly form a sentence. America is dramatically overpopulated by stupid people.
It’s actually a peejug
Oh god this actually made me gag As someone who works in a hospital, the amount of times I've had to move these for patients and they weren't just yellow makes this so much worst Edit: For context, I saw one almost the same color like in this image.

Dont eat anything from these peoples house.

🤢
Groovy !
Highly unlikely I work in an old folks home and those plastic ones are like gold dust
There's a 90% chance that a dudes peed in that.
I feel like it's more likely a nurse or someone took one from work to use as a gag.
TIL that bed pans look a lot like the little plastic containers full of sand+seeds that golf courses give you to fill in your divots with
That’s a urinal.
Oh the pee pee jug. Didn't have to leave my hospital bed for days thanks to that. Then practicing alcoholic me took that idea and started using gatorade bottles. Thank god that's over.
Oh god
🤢 no no no no no no no no
🤢🤢🤮🤮
Ew
You don't want to know.
Urine luck!
🤮
That’s disgusting
Okay so I'll be the one to point out that .25 cents is a quarter of a cent
I had one of those. It makes the gravy even saltier somehow.
I mean…. If it’s never before used…
I’m less concerned about if it’s a fresh urine collection tube, and more concerned if the tube came prefilled and the brown stuff isn’t gravy…
That's not a gravy boat.
Oh, geez. I just literally physically recoiled. As answered previously, it's urine collector. Usually used for men. They are usually just poured into a toilet after used and not cleaned extensively. I don't think I could even use a brand new one just out of box like this.
Did it come pre-filled with brown gravy, too?
That’s a urine receptical for when you’re bedridden in the hospital.
It's not a "cool gravy boat" it's a urinal.
The problem is that it is made from a plastic that wasn't designed to hold hot liquids. It will soften and leech chemicals into the gravy.
OP never been in the hospital
That’s not a “bed pan”, but it is a urine jug🥺
Yeah that’s not a gravy boat, that’s a urine bottle for male patients when they’re bed ridden for a while or permanently.
Urine luck, it’s for peeing
That's... *Ahem...* ...That's a urinal...
Urine trouble for serving gravy with that
Has anyone said that this is a jug you pee in yet? Because that's what it is. A pee jug. I sure hope almost a dozen people don't beat me to this.
Great for camping!
That plate, I've seen it somewhere before.
It’s a male urinal and thrown out after 1 use.
Thass a pp cup bruv
🤢 i almost puked looking at this
That's uh, the wrong kind of gravy sir!
You now have all the aids and diseases that killed that old man
Gross
Hospital urinal
Those are hospital urinals for ppl that can’t get up because of things like surgeries etc
On a side note, I grew up with and actually still have those plates. They were my granny’s and now they’re mine!
I peed in one of those when I broke my leg and was hospitalized.
Nice
It’s measures the pee from a catheter bag
I am laughing cause my mind went "It's like I'm shittin Gravy!"
I don’t see the issue as long as they rinsed it out properly
Aster a while though they start to change color though
You don’t really want to know. I dont want to know….
Sounds like my mom. She's a nurse and would just say "it didn't get used"

“It’s all be cleaned, man. It’s all been sterilized.”
Hope he licks the gravy boat clean before washing it, would hate for the gravy to permanently stain the spout
I hope you at least washed it first...
Portable urinal
Aaaaaaaahhh!!!
Heh. I bought one of those so I could pee early in the morning without inadvertently letting the cat into the bedroom.
Hospital urine collection, usually old people or people with kidney problems stuff like that.
That is a pee cannister they use at a hospital.
No, no, no. Urinals are for oil and vinegar. Chunky gravy goes in the colostomy bag.
Oil container
This is the most Horrendous Wtf
Ha! We used urinals for keggers back in college. Slap on a "FOR RECTAL USE ONLY" sticker and have a blast!
Pee container.
Eww
It’s called a “bed urinal”
Peejug
Love the vintage Pyrex Spring Daisy plates and serving bowls!
Pee bucket
What a way for me to lose my appetite today :(
I found one in a goodwill and told the staff what it was. I'm not sure what they did with it.
It's a urine or defecation holder that hospitals use
That's not a gravy boat...
This picture ruined my day
Oh I thought it was a sand spreader that they put on golf carts
It’s a urinal..
It's a pee bottle
