Way OT: The Swiss poop silver and gold
I'm tired of talking about last Saturday, so here's a story about all the silver and gold in Switzerland's sewage system. There's apparently enough to mine.

Disagree. I believe this thread is "shitty".
I will see myself out.

I logged in to post the same exact thing. Beat me to the toilet.

I'll go so far as to say it's a load of crap.

I've known this for years. This is why every time I hook up with a Swiss woman, I ask her to give me a Cleveland Steamer. It is both sexually arousing, and intrinsically valuable (and inflation proof, in this age of quantitative easing!!!).

Only when I pee... I mean, the bathrooms in my office building are unusually warm. That is what I meant...

Apparently, they have the poop fairy. Although no one there has bothered to harvest the prizes left behind.

Came here to make a similar joke. Now I won't. Thanks for ruining my day.

truly sorry

It's strange the things that can make you nostalgic. Sometimes I really miss those simple times.

Great stuff (although I wasn't a Frosty fan. Prof. Hinkle could've melted him for all I cared.) But what struck me years later were the Hollywood heavyweights they got to narrate those shows:
Rudolph: Burl Ives
Frosty: Jimmy Durante
Grinch: Boris Karloff
Santa Claus is Comin' to Town: Fred Astaire
Year Without a Santa Claus: Shirley Booth
Little Drummer Boy: Greer Garson
That's some pretty weighty talent for a bunch of Christmas cartoons.

You measure it in Courics

Lucky Swiss bastards. No one ever attacks them for anything and now they're literally shitting gold.

If you ran the water treatment plant would you:
A) Alert my higher ups to start an investigation into why all this gold is showing up in my plant?
B) Work with the team to start extracting it and sharing the wealth with those involved?
C) Work late and send empoyees home early setting a good example and generating adoration amongst your employees, meanwhile you are $2 million richer?

Or plenty of them flush evidence when Interpol is at the door.

I live in Geneva... guess it's time to reverse the flow of my toilet so that I can get rich!!

FIrst and foremost, this is Way OT and it may very well go away as a result, but as I am just getting home from an offsite that took a lot out of me and resulted in nearly 90 minutes of brutal traffic on I-94, I am feeling generous - and by this, I mean admittedly apathetic.
My neighbor had his sewer main redone last month, but as he didn't move away, I assume there was no gold - only shit.

Would this be chocolate gold?
