    I always wonder about this, it seems like such an obvious lie.

    Any Lemmy plumbers want to confirm or deny that jism protein can fuck up the pipes?

      Not a plumber but worked with one for 3 months. the urine seemed to be the worsg thing in the pipes. the solids settle out in the trap and elbows, building into a cake of urea/phosphorous cemented to the pipe. this is only anecdotal.

      Fatbergs near apartment buildings are the problem more than anything. The local high schools where I live only have 8" sewer laterals
