You’re in Trouble

A journal scrap from
Fri, March 6,2006

There are tears on my sleeves and little snot bridges between my nostrils and my lips, and sometimes also my sleeves. The body ran out of reactive functions while allocating reactions to the sovereign emotions, ‘cause really it sets the wrong tone, this pouring of tears, when Justin just drank Jon’s urine.
I’m getting the art-slave pity from Jon and Justin on today’s driving shifts. Yeah. Rewind. That’s what I said. Justin just drank Jon’s urine out of a Starbucks covered cup. He was doubling back up to navigator position to cover for me, and marveled aloud, “Ooh! I have some coffee left.” Left from his shift at the wheel two hours ago, and still warm.
Jon was sputtering something with an urgency that only hindered the warning from comprehensibly exiting his mouth. And at the same time, something surprising and immediately comprehensible entered Justin’s mouth.
“Pee Pee”, Jon latently announced to the frozen moment that briefly ensues when a man has consumed another man’s bodily fluid-- before the eruption of; laughter (Matt and me), desperate apologies (Jon), curses (Justin), and saliva/urine (also Justin).
The beat-down in Justin, whether immediate or postponed, buckled beneath the weight of more than just one more straw. The more we laughed, the more we were doomed, we knew. We laughed like it was the last we’d enjoy.

Oh. My. Goodness. It's a good thing I decided not to drink lemonade today, yes? Maybe Jon should take this into some consideration next time uh... nature calls.


Pee in clear bottles.


Hilarious, unfortunate, but hilarious nonetheless...

That's disturbingly deep for drinking urine. Maybe this was Jons fault for not telling anybody? Maybe. Only a good verbal beat down should have come from Justin. Poor soul. Busses are dangerous, poo to you for playing the artist card! That one should be saved.

That is so hillarious I couldn't stop laughing!
Makes me miss the old tour journal...
but now we have the blog!
Anyways, poor Justin...

PS. Sorry about the leakage, my copy isn't going anywhere

I can't say how incredibly amusing that was to read, and a little disturbing. Not only with the idea of drinking uh, fluids, but it reminded me of a incident that happened a couple years ago on a road trip, I'll just say I almost completely feel Justin's pain. God.

And I've come to the conclusion that those journal's would definitely entertain me for days, I'm sure. If not just the way they are written...

Oh, and sorry about the (pun) leakage also. Hopefully it won't go any further than it already has.

the frozen moment that briefly ensues when a man has consumed another man’s bodily fluid

That part really made me laugh. I have to say that I know plenty of men that quite enjoy another man's bodily fluids. Although, not of the "pee pee" variety.

This is horribly entertaining, and you would think it would be a 'make or break' the friendship situation.
I wonder though, is this something that's frequently brought up in conversation? or one of those awkward "we don't talk about it" experiences.

So here I was sitting here feeling sorry for myself when I decided to check and see if a new blog had been posted and you just made me laugh. THANKS

It was a mediocre day in World Lit today until I got on the internet to check your blog. I was so very happy when I was that there was a new entry and eagerly read it the whole thing twice while suppressing giggle fits. My teacher promptly showed up and inquired as to what I was reading to which I replied "oh nothing, just a blog". That kept her away until I cursed at the computer for blocking the comments page! Damn firewalls. Needless to say, this comment has been stewing around in my head for about 8 hours now. I even pulled out some of my spiffy world lit language...

im sorry for Justin...the poor dude. but seriously, how could his coffee have still been warm after two hours of sitting around?
maybe im just weird but i usually look into the cup im drinking from first before sipping.

sorry for that being excessively long and random

It has previously been stated but I feel the need to reiterate it; poor Justin. I think the moral of the story is always pee in plastic bottle. I never thought a tale about drinking urine could be so poetic. I agree with Mal and Victoria about the leak (what a terrible choice of word) and I promise my copy will not get sent around.

Sucks for Justin. What was Jon thinking anyway?

Sounds like it wasn't a great day for you though, aside from urine-related hilarity. It's funny; I wax poetic in that sort of mood as well.

it might be the 3 allergy pills that i took one every hour, finishing the last one off 32 minutes ago, that were only supposed to be taken once every 24 hours that brought me back to this, but i've had a mind-numbing giggle over "you're in" sounds like "urine" for at least the last 10 minutes.

I am confused. Why would someone urinate into a starbucks cup? And why would someone drink starbucks after it has been sitting there for two hours or more? I wouldn't even think of drinking something that I left unattended for more than a few minutes, but I am also incredibly paranoid and trust hardly anyone.

Why would someone urinate in a Starbucks cup? Bladder emergency whilst in between rest stops of course.
Starbucks after two hours? Perhaps there are people who do not mind their Starbucks two hours old.

How did Jon do this without anyone noticing? Well I guess it's easier for a guy to get away with that, at least easier than it would be for a girl.

question: did jon pee into the cup with all intentions of it being ingested as a prank? Or was it just meant for someone else. Orrrr did he just pee in a coffee cup for the hell of it.

he porbably peed in it cause he was in a bus and he had to go. on road trips when you have to go its commmon to use a bottle or cup, for guys anyway. ive done it a lot when a bathroom wasnt readily available.

As I read this, it played out in my head, and I laughed pretty hard. Apologies to Justin for laughing at this unfortunate situation, but if it wasn't him, I imagine he would have done the same.

But I got the impression that you would trash it instead of leaving it in the open to be mistaken for coffee.

you know, no band makes it until someone drinks pee. Benji Madden did it, now look where THEY are.

So... I think that's a sign of good luck.
