2. "The Whizzinator" helps to pass drug tests
The device, sold on the Internet under the name "The Whizzinator," is often used to try and falsify drug test results. It retails for $150 and comes complete with dehydrated urine and heat packs designed to keep the sample at the proper temperature.

Los Angeles Deputy City Attorney Robert Cha told Celebrity Justice that authorities had recovered from Sizemore a prosthetic penis attached to a pair of men's underwear holding a container filled with clean urine.


The device, sold on the Internet under the name "The Whizzinator," is often used to try and falsify drug test results. It retails for $150 and comes complete with dehydrated urine and heat packs designed to keep the sample at the proper temperature.


Cha said that Sizemore has been caught using the mechanism once before and has failed drug tests on numerous occasions.


Rovell said that Sizemore had denied cheating on the test and had offered to be tested again and had even passed a lie-detector test on the matter.

5. Uuummmm....
Urine is always clean, unless you have a kidney or bladder or urinary tract infection of some sort, it's sterile.

12. sterile, yes. "clean", no
drugs that are metabolized in the kidneys leave metabolites in the urine that can be detected by drug tests.

not that the drug tests actually detect these metabolites, not the actual drug. anything that produces these metabolites can cause the test to test positive. the classic example is poppy seeds, which produce the same metabolites as all poppy-derivate drugs (morphine, heroin, etc.) the tests are (hopefully) calibrated so that only a massive amount of poppy seeds will lead to a false positive.

18. All Americans should have a right to posses prosthetic penises.

If they take away our penises, what will they take next?
