Public pools are disgusting, I will never swim in one again. (whatever)

submitted ago by Tuftedtitmouse

Think of all the disgusting things that are left in public pools (especially water parks).

  1. Fecal matter
  2. Cum
  3. Boogers
  4. Blood
  5. Puss
  6. Bandaids
  7. Dandruff
  8. Fold cheese from fatties
  9. Pubic hairs
  10. Spit / loogies from coughing while sick
  11. Toe jam
  12. Urine
  13. Ear wax

Sure, they add tons of chemicals to kill all that stuff, but now you are soaking yourself in heavy chlorines and other acids, on top of the now dead, but still present items listed above.

Just the thought of it makes me gag.

Now do lakes.

Depends on the lake. Some are gross, some are pristine.

I've went cliff diving at a lake once and a couple of times swallowed some of the lake water by accident (goes up your nose, etc). Who knows what was in that. Never again.

Every lake I have been too smells of dead fish and gasoline.

Lake superior is amazing. Super cold but that's what makes it crystal clear. Lake Michigan is okay but it seems to have a lot of algae in it compared to 20 years ago. Idk about Huron. Erie is full of toxic algae and Ontario I don't know about.

Erie is the worst. Even when I went there 15 years ago, the shoreline was covered in algae. I can't imagine that has gotten any better.
