I love how the title is How to MAKE a Goldfish Live for Decades. It brings to mind a mad scientist fretting about a table to which is strapped a little yellow creature.
To me, the most horrifying thing about Wal-Mart is the shelf where fish (bettas, usually) are sold in tiny plastic tubs. I can't imagine that goldfish are happy in their tiny little bowl.
...
How does someone even decide to TRY this? "Hm, I've been bald for years. Maybe DRINKING ME PEE will fix it!"
Yeah, the article mentions that books are being written about (ugh) "urinotherapy," but it still means some crazy person had to try it first, and then a bunch of other people saw him and figured they'd try it too.
Awesome!
