One gallon = 4.55 litres, if you were wondering whether your bladder might be able to hold it.

[–] TheOhNoNotAgain@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago (2 children)

In my book it is 3.79

[–] GCostanzaStepOnMe@feddit.de 26 points 2 years ago

Why would you pee in your book?

[–] andthenthreemore@startrek.website 5 points 2 years ago

Looks like your book is in freedom units rather than gold old chap units.

1 Imperial gallon = 4546.092 Milliliter

1 US gallon = 3785.4118 Milliliter

You'd probably be on your way to water intoxication

[–] SheDiceToday@eslemmy.es 1 points 2 years ago

But the average adult bladder can hold 14 ounces. So in liters that's about enough, right?

Hydrohomies is one sub a forgot about and now miss when I left reddit

Just saving people a search: https://lemmy.ml/c/hydrohomies

[–] CommunityLinkFixer 3 points 2 years ago

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !hydrohomies@lemmy.ml

Their vibe were different after they had to change the name.

Just a warning, don't do this

A gallon throughout the course of a day will not harm an adult.

[–] Sombyr@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Indeed. I drink between a gallon and two gallons every day, depending on how active I've been. According to my doctors, it's perfectly safe. I'm fairly certain water intoxication only hits at pretty absurd amounts.

[–] ninjan@lemmy.mildgrim.com 3 points 2 years ago

No, just in a very short time frame. You probably don't chug two gallons straight up, but if you'd did it'd be super dangerous. Even one gallon could be dangerous if chugged.

[–] STUPIDVIPGUY@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

1.5 gallons in 3 hours might kill you. 1 gallon throughout the day, especially if you are very active, is harmless.

[–] candyman337@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Oh yeah definitely, but it's also unnecessary usually, that is a lot of water

[–] MegaTony@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I drink a gallon a day because I work outside

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I drink a gallon a day because I work out

Remember homies, pee is stored in the balls. So the more water you drink, the bigger you get.

[–] ImFresh3x@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

I drink lots of water, but I’ve decided to drink more in the AM and less in the evening. I’m getting older and I hate waking up to pee.

[–] dondurma@hexbear.net -1 points 2 years ago

I still scroll when I pee. . I have a huge internet addiction. Help lol.
