So, does the human and animal waste just get dumped (sorry) in the lake? And related, is the lake where they get their drinking water as well as water for washing themselves and their food? Genuinely curious. Pic related.

lol. Well played.

Right. Like North Korea would have a trolling website like The Onion. Just keep living that fantasy. Here's something to help you along.

I'm voting for Julian Assange to be The Man With The Thistledown Hair. Not even joking. :-)
