Not really.

These people were called piss poor. People who we worse off than that didn't even have a pot to piss in.

My great great grandma has an outhouse. She kept a pee pot in a kitchen chair by the back door so if you had to go in the middle of the night you just used it and she’d give it a sling out into the back yard. I was blessed to have her till I was 15. I’ve used the pee pot and the outhouse. She lived right beside my great grandparents. When I got married we bought my great grandparents old home. My great great grandmas house had been torn down many years before that but the old outhouse was still there. After a few years we finally tore it down.

Which’s a terrible adjective. Those people were the nobility, not the bourgeoisie, which were not yet the ruling class.

[@isaackellogg3493]

@@felipevasconcelos6736the terrible part is why it’s a terrible adjective. The original meaning of “bougie” was “middle class.” Unfortunately, due to real wages dropping over the past fifty years, what was once considered middle class or even lower middle class* is now considered upper middle class, hence “Bougie.” *The classic example given is Homer Simpson, who married his high school sweetheart, has three children, a stay-at-home wife, owns a house, and takes multiple vacations per year, all on the single income of a technical job he has had for years, and which he got without a college degree. In 1987 he was considered a middle class or even lower middle class loser, but today there are people earning six figures who don’t live so well, and the vast majority of Americans cannot even aspire to such a lifestyle. Hence what was once merely bourgeois has now become “Bougie.”

[@felipevasconcelos6736]

@@isaackellogg3493 the meaning of “bougie” (or “bourgeois”, which “bougie” is short for) as “middle class” is not its original one, and is in fact quite recent. The bourgeoisie was, in the Early Modern period, the merchant class, which could include very rich and very poor ones, but notedly did not include nobles, which were in a higher class. After the Industrial Revolution, the people who owned factories (who were the bourgeoisie, as they were generally not nobles or clergy members) became much more influential in society, eventually becoming the dominant class. Until this day, the bourgeoisie remain the ruling class, not because of how much they make, but because by owning the means of production they control many aspects of society. Homer was never a bourgeois, because he is employed by someone who owns the means of production. Nowadays he is comparatively quite well off, but his situation fundamentally hasn’t changed.

Imagine being the guy who broke it. Appears it was a ceramic container.

[@johnclose2925]

Sounds like me and my dad drinking together. My sister used to get really annoyed when we would piss off the patio into the back garden 😂

Had a boss that was VERY finicky. He went to his wife’s family’s reunion in Missouri and wouldn’t stop talking about the guys around the keg that night going into the trees to pee. “they had a perfectly good bathroom inside!” Dude was so out of touch

[@V.E.R.O.]

It's because of the stench, it accumulates. If you go to the areas where the homeless hang out it usually smells like piss.

[@twocyclediesel1280]

@@kianvalizadeh8033 Definitely not dignified, just very finicky.

​@@twocyclediesel1280why would they piss in the woods when they have a bathroom? That's unhygienic

Great restaurant, a must visit when in Edinburgh

oh my gosh, passing the piss pot around the table 🤣 that's great 😅

Been there numerous times. Besides dining, The Witchery also has a small number of suites available if staying overnight in the city.

"Upper class" 😂

[@thecook8964]

Upper class did what they wanted. It's the middle class that is so insecure & afraid of slipping down the ladder that rigidly followed the etiquette books

[@G_v._Losinj2_ImportantPlaylist]

@@thecook8964true in many cases, but it is often the upper class that fails to properly due it’s part in the socio-governmental system, while enabling cartels of bankers/industrialists. (For example: “The RevoIution” as they called the Coup of 1688, w/ the Crown creating/seIIing out to the cartel that is the BoE, Franklin stated that entity led to the prohibition of Colonial Script & caused the American Rev, modern day examples of 120+ years of unnecessary wars, including Wilson regretting his actions w/ The Fed, and in history (recent & old) of countless nations (factionalism & greed from the US to Africa to Europe & Mod-East); Polish & Belrus/Lith nobles (Derzhavin wiki) & also Ruzzian nobles/leading classes failing to do their part (absent, apathetic, failing to hand issues (I.e. Derz wiki)).

Gay.

This gives new meaning to “he ain’t got a pot to piss in nor a window to throw it out.”

[@themysteriousdomainmoviepalace]

Now they do it in the street. And don't come even close to looking as good as these gentlemen. When I was in London they had just finished rebuilding the Globe Theater. Before they built, they took soil samples by driving a tube into the ground. When they got the lab results, they discovered that the floor of the Globe had been soaked in peanut shells and urine. Imagine the stench!

Sometimes we can learn important stuff from history, lets take notes boys.

If my high school history teacher presented the lessons like this narrator, I'd have skipped my nap to actually pay attention.

[@pam5389]

Brings the expression "a pot to piss in"to a whole new level 😉

[@pistonburner6448]

Brilliant! Why have we forgotten this inspired invention?! (The video itself is edited in a very unpleasant way. And I'm not old either, so that's now why I think that)

Gives you motion sickness 😅

I think we have all used these a time a two.

We're not like you. You are a real human person. We are real human beings. Do you recall the hospital you were brought into this Earth in?

That piss container should have a cover. Imagine the scent. I guess they are so drunk, they dont care anymore 😂

I didn't think I'd ever hear someone say "pass the piss pot round the table"

JFC The Witchery is the ONLY accommodation available in Edinburgh city during the Taylor Swift concerts next year 😂 very nice rooms for £3000 per room per night, I'd rather camp in the woods 30 miles away lmao
