The 2015 trivial drivel thread

[Clang McFly]

Took my daughter to our LifeTime outdoor pool yesterday. It's a big reason we keep our membership; to enjoy the pool during summer.

Well, for the second time in three weeks some toddler shit in the pool 5 minutes after we sat down. It then takes an hour or so to clean and sterilize the water (while everyone is kicked out).

Very frustrating.

No way that water was safe to swim in after an hour MS. It takes at least 24 hours to cycle all of the water through the filter and if it was my pool, I'd do a 24 hour shock as well to eliminate the bacteria in the filter. You and your family swam in a cess pool.

Thanks BG for your concern but we left.

Good call. That's especially dangerous because kids open their eyes under water and parents usually attribute the eye irritation to the chlorine when in fact the kid has a bacterial infection. I would't swim or let my kids swim in public pools. They're disgusting. Most people assume that the high level of chlorine makes it safe. It doesn't and it isn't...

now I don't feel so bad for peeing in the public pool every time I swam.
