You Must Pay to Pee

Due to a serious water shortage, all residents of the Boston metropolitan area must now use only public amenities to pee.  To reduce the serious burden on our water supply, a fee is charged for each use.  Please be sure to have your money ready before entering the amenity.

Starting today, the fees are going up.  All residents must now pay the increased fee.  No exceptions are allowed.  The fee hikes were approved yesterday by the Massachusetts House and Senate and signed into law by the Governor.

Your cooperation is required.  Remember, it is a privilege to pee.  Those who are caught peeing outside of the public amenities will be arrested and sent off to Urinetown.

One more weekend to see Urinetown
