Real answer is that it's obscenely heavy

Not contradicting, trying to learn here. How is it a feature of capitalism, and not fascism? Or are the two similar enough they can effectively be put in the same group?

The man did in fact need to be stopped, but "shouldn't be deadly" is still potentially deadly. The dude might've had a heart condition, could've dropped dead right on the spot. Not worth risking for a baseball game, IMO.

I did not personally see him peeing in the bottle, but have had to clean them up after the fact. Actors are typically given water bottles and are essentially the only ones who would have them handy on set. Oftentimes, they'll forget to grab them on their way out. Typically not full of piss. I've worked with plenty of other actors that do NOT leave behind piss bottles. It's disgusting and unheard of anywhere else.

There are nearly always bathrooms nearby for the crew, whether portable or otherwise, so there would be no need for them to piss in a bottle.

I also have friends who have worked on other projects with Dwayne Johnson and can corroborate the piss bottles.

If you being late to work meant that dozens of other people had to work overtime, I'd say you deserve to be called out for it.

Also, he's not exactly picking his piss bottles up after himself. Other people have to clean those up.

I'm a set dresser now, but have worked in most other departments as well. Right now I'm a glorified furniture mover and cleanup crew, nothing too interesting about the job lol.

Can confirm many people do NOT do it. It's very bad practice and an overall dick move.

I work in film and can also confirm the on set piss bottles.

If I borrowed your car and put sugar in the gas tank before giving it back, is it my fault or yours when the car shits itself to death while you're driving it?

Everyone has preferences, but you've done yourself a disservice not going back and finishing. OP's right calling them a cinematic triumph.

It's not free shipping, you're paying $140/year. Worth it to some, but if you don't order much it's worth cancelling to cut costs.
