I would pay money to see that.
What makes you think something analogous to that doesn't exist already? It's NSFW, so ...

I'm betting that an actual pee stream would have less gaps and also be more conductive given the electrolytes in pee.
Is it possible the gaps in the MythBusters episode were due to the liquid's pump? Small pumps often have intermittent spurts of pressure, and if not regulated, result in a discontinuous stream of droplets. Continuous liquid pressure from the muscles around the bladder would not display such a phenomenon.

So am I. Had I been the person in charge of the episode where they tried to set a ship on fire with reflective devices, it would have been ignited. I've seen many things that they have done wrong, but can't be asked to go and correct them. One other case stands out (among many) when they heated up candy in a microwave with no door and pieces flying out burnt them. No protective gear? Dafuq? Blinded by superheated candy, anyone?
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

That's probably what makes you attractive to the smart ones.

Do you get this one?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

That weather man is a fucking comedian, and he knows it. He can even say "[...] I think steel melts at that temperature" without flinching. Great vid.
