Mens urinals

[Drago]

I always go in the ladies. Their urinals are so much cleaner!

Glad you specified men's urinals, with all those women's urinals you see around these days.

but seriously

1. Yeah, there are "talented" ladies who have mastered the art of the urinal. I've never seen one in action. I believe they have to stand a lot closer so their shoes would be at serious risk.
2. On average, the ladies shoes would be nicer.
3. <feminist>I noticed a very public urinal outside Vauxhall Station. Definitely men only, as modesty is only preserved by passersby averting their eyes, thus "very public". My first thought was "better than them pissing in the gutter", which was probably the motivation for the installation. But any ladies in the area might be more desperate for a wee, but hesitating to squat in public, have to do without. The future bladder infections of those ladies doesn't get recorded, so doesn't drive infrastructure.</feminist>

I don't think much to those new Dyson urinals. OK they blow warm air on your cock, but the piss just goes everywhere

What , the Air Blade? I've heard it does quite a passable circumcision.

 

[Brandane]

Just stand further back.

might not reach then

"Biggs" in name only then?

 

[snorri]

Don't blokes just wazz on the floor normally anyhow, Indoors or out?

Not when away from home.

Why is there often a pong of pi55 in alleys and dark corners? And don't be blaming foxes and dogs

Yeah but the queues are way longer.

 

[vickster]

Cats?

Nah that's not a cat p!55 smell

Douglas Adams says:

Nevertheless, like every car park in the Galaxy throughout the entire history of car parks, this car park smelt predominantly of impatience.

The French are so much more laid back about public urination than us. I was in a pub in France and went off to the loo for a pee (at the urinals). Next thing was a stream of women walking past at my back, heading for the ladies loo which was the cubicles a few feet away! When I checked the sign on the way out, it was right enough. I thought the women were using the gents toilet as the ladies was busy, but no; it was unisex toilets.

There's nothing worse than a French loo where the urinal is next to the wash basin

Chinese toilets are far worse though!!

I came across a fantastic urinal in a pub in Cork a year ago. It was a standard (horrible) stainless steel wall-mounted trough, about three metres long. The entire floor of the Gents was a perforated stainless steel mesh beneath which was a shallow stainless steel sump. The urinal drained directly into the sump. Random or deliberate drips were of no consequence, they all ended up in the sump.

Never aim your jet directly at the urinal, always aim for the side so it swirls round not splashes back.
These things are supposed to stop splash back, they have them in my local pub.

I've come across those in mountain restaurants in The Alps. It's a bit un-nerving because you have to pretty much shed most of your ski garments to "do the needful".
