If it walks like piss, smells like piss, it's definitely a duck.

Who are you so wise in the way of science?

why would you doubt that?

were you pissing on the same spot everyday repetitively without anyone complaining?

Because liquids are absorbed by the ground and don't dry up. Pee stinks when drying up, not when being in the ground.

Unless the guy pisses on the porch or in a serious heat wave/drought, its not gonna stink as the ground sucks the pee in.

I have. Doesn't smell (not just according to me)

Nitrogen content in your piss is pretty high and can end up killing your grass in excess. It looks like OP's husband pisses in two spots right beside the stairs so the nitrogen will accumulate there.

Judging by the shrubs there could be a little garden down there the wife cares about, or she wants the habit cut so there's not a yellow splotch that guests are being funneled between.

... Or plain old prudery. Who truly knows~

Unless hes literally pissing gallons a day on the same spot, or they live in a severely dry area, this is not a concern, rain and other sources like morning dew will dilute and wash it away. Plants aren't that sensitive to it.

Ever see "dog spots" in a yard? Urine can absolutely do damage to plants if concentrated in one area.

Probably just seems nasty or something

In the original POST, OP says that it's killing the shrubs down there.

Suggestions included making a designated piss spot or moving the shrubs. Not, you know, just respecting your wife enough to not piss off the deck if asked.
