Urinals! Why?

The Backwards Man

The most useless invention in the history of humankind! I was in the pub tonight and had a call of nature, and as I was relieving myself a neighbour came in to do likewise. Well, he must have had about a dozen pints worth stored up and I ended up fcuking drooked with the splashback.

Who on earth ever thought these were a good idea? Only half the population can use them, they are unhygienic, and if you were to have a conversatiom with someone anywhere else with your cock in your hand you'd be arrested.

Anyone else feel as strongly about this issue as I do?

I agree urinals really take the piss.

The Moldy Gowl

I like to treat myself on special occasions and sit down and wee.

I'm not an animal

KERSPLAT!

I've had some very profound conversations at the urinals, can't do that in a cubicle!

They don't take all of it though, that's the problem

Urinals are more space efficient and thus allow for a faster turnover of pissers, meaning you spend less time with a full bladder. Im all for them.

I like urinals. Its not as easy to have a sword fight in a cramped cubicle

Imagine you were in the local hardware store, you wouldn't chat to the sales assistant about the benefits of a carbon monoxide alarm whilst fiddling with your willy. Would you?

Because they want to create music I guess?

You haven't been in my local hardware store obviously!

Tool Time - best hardware store in the country!















Come to think of it I don't think they sell hardware in there any more. And the music is really loud, and when the hell did hardware stores have bars and male strippers? Doesn't matter - still a great place to just hang out with your lad out.

You shouldnt be fiddling with your willy in public urinals, can get in alot of trouble for that sort of thing.

Limp dick? Sickner.

Urinals are great, no worrying about going into the jacks and seeing a piece of shit stuck to the seat.
It's my 2nd favourite bathroom device, after the dyson airblade.

They're crap urinals. Made an awful mess the last time I used one of them

The Urinals.

The place where all the pricks hang out.

OneArt

I think they're pretty useful, though I don't ever fancy weeing in front of other people.

Plus if I did coke on a urinal everyone else would want some and I'd have to share.

conorh91

Jeez OP… it's only weird if you make it weird. What about chatting to your doctor during a checkup, or going swimming where you tog on or shower with someone?

Urinals are pretty inoffensive. I don't experience the splash back you've experienced. Maybe your friend was disobeying they 'furthest available urinal' rule.

Have you ever seen the queue outside the women's jacks? I'm sure some women would love to have urinals.

fleet_admiral

In my experience of working in pubs for the vast majority if my employed life I have always found the ladies toilet to be much dirtier than the gents after a busy night. I don't mind urinals, I even squeeze in between two people if im bursting to go and its very busy. Im not a scuttler who runs off ir ques for a cubicle

Maybe if you were really, really into Carbon Monoxide.

Spook_ie

Where else would you be able to wash your hands

Paulownia

What about all the guys who don't use urinals and piss all over the toilet seat rather than lift it?

Nodferatu

I thougbt they were for ****ting in!!!!

Paulownia

It seems that young people have much more inhibitions about their bodies now than used to be the case. I notice that in changing rooms they often change using towels , perhaps that is why they don't like urinals either

It would make sense if you have a house full of males, frees up bathroom time

apparently its the western ****ter thats the problem, seems like the hole in the ground is a better and more natural way to evacuate, although Id be concerned for my phone/wallet/keys falling out and having to fish them out. As for the urinals, they are only unhygenic because pubs dont clean em, but no worse than the bogs, uncleaned, splattered on, broken, non existant seat, no TP, you're just touching the door lock, must be some poop on it from before if not you.

Because of this, effectively it boils down to cost and space, which is cost anyway.

I get you, but, when you think about it, who'd want to touch that after someones splattered a Guinness shiyte in there, coliform city. Having said that, Im not convinced thats their motivation, more couldnt give a fcuk ignorant, mark my territory animals.

pics or gtfo! of the urinal, I suppose it uses less water (aside from less space) to flush and thats also why they are prevalent, especially in pubs (self flushing really) and of the trough kind, where they need you to expel as much as your kidneys can process to get you onto the next pint, although I'd guess the troughs are better at catching more piss, I think they create more splashback and are not suitable for dividers.

kneemos

If you're wearing shorts you can feel the splashback,particularly with the type where you pee against the wall.
When we become civilised in the future we'll look back and think how we behaved like heathens.
In the meantime at least we're not French.

cloud493

I have awful pee shyness. Have to go in a cubicle.

It's all about teamwork.

Urinal on the wall and 3ft wide grating on the floor. What's the grating about? An anti slip surface? Or to cater for for those people who couldn't hit a barn door?

Urinals are a great idea, the problem is poor implementation.

It should be difficult to cover yourself in piss, the reality is quite the reverse.

Never use a urinal in shorts and/or sandals, its amazing the level of splashback that escapes.

These I like,and no splashback.

whisky_galore

First time I encountered a bidet I was really confused...

sh1tstirrer

Would the backwards man not be using the urinal for sh1tting in

Urinals are a god send, especially at music festivals.

Me too, but it's a constant source of arguments with the missus - she insists there is no such thing as a kitchen sink / urinal no matter how many times I demonstrate its dual capabilities:D

azezil

The individual ones are grand, just aim for the drain, but yeah the long shared ones can give a fierce splash back. FIERCE I tells ya!

fryup

ever get stage fright?

you're about to p!ss and someone stands right next to you and you just can't do it..and then panic sets in, do i just stand there and wait till he goes away or do i zip up quick and leg it ????

very distressing situation

You still use/used them. If you don't like them queue for ages and go into a cubicle.

God no.. those things are shyte! Deafen you for a start and no use if you want to dry off after a heavy shower.

Paulownia

not sure that the idea is that you have a shower and use the airblade to dry yourself, some parts would fit in better than others obviously! They always remind me of an aircraft taking off. Much preferable to the dreadful dryers in Terminal 2 at Dublin airport though.

Davarus Walrus

Before the smoking ban you could throw your fag butt into the urinal, then use your piss to wash it down towards the drain. Simpler times.
