is there like uncontrollable dribbleage that occurs some time during the process, and guys can't help but drip some on the floor? that's all i want to know. 😛

just turn on a hose and let it run adn then shut it off real fast and watch what happens,

same thing happens to us

Also...does anyone have the issue where after sex you can sometimes end up with two streams that shoot out in different directions, and the angle is just different enough so that both cannot go into the damned toilet?
i think the plumbing is suffering temporary post coital confusion there. :Q

yes

I HATE that. It's annoying. And you just don't think to sit down.


it only ever seems to happen in the morning and im normally so groggy that i just look down and notice that no pee at all is going in the toilet and its honestly like 10 seconds before i realize im peeing at a 90 degree angle and its going all over the wall

:laugh:

I never measured the angle of mine.

I usually just sit down to pee if I get up during the night. Saves me the trouble of turning on a light and then bumping into shit on the way back to bed because I can't see anything.

I have to say that 90 degrees is a bit extreme. I would 30 degrees would be about the worst I've gotten.

The worst is when you accidentally grip your member a bit too tight and the urine decides to take some weird angled path. You have to stand sideways because if you loosen up your grip you have no idea where its going to go.

why are you holding on to it like its gonna fall off?
 
I got a trick for you guys and the pee streams issue. Almost start, then hold onto it for as long as you can, then let it out really fast. Usually it breaks up whatever dam you built the night before.

😛

PEE TRICKS FTW

Edit: Whatever you do, don't cross the streams!
 
i did some dumb psych research on bathroom etiquette years ago (let's say 3 years ago) and usually, people go to the urinals or stalls on the far end.

i guess people are close minded.
 
Y'know what drives me nuts? I can shake it a few times, give it the nod-really-fast motion. Pretty sure the well is dry and the moment it goes back in the hangar something gets unkinked and you get spillage.
 
I do find it kind of amusing how people don't ever go to the middle one and it's also interesting to see who will go straight to the middle one.

Also, someone was all "/tapfoot"... isn't that supposedly a "call sign" that you're lookin' for lovin'? Some politician got slammed (by the law you pervs) in a bathroom sting because of that or something.

No, not unless you are a savage :Q!
 
Our bathroom fixtures are old school urinals with no paritions between them. So the urinal doesn't even wrap around, it's just 2 feet down and your junk is hanging out there for all to see. I don't need my fellow co-workers walking in and looking at my junk so I just go to one of the stalls and lift the seat.

yeah, thats really annoying.
when i put it back in i usually grab my boxers along with it to get a final wipe.
i hate feeling piss dribbling down my leg.

I had that same thing happen when I woke up today. Two streams! One hit the floor, one hit the underside of the lid. I had to stop and open it up before I could finish. (And of course, I had to clean up my mess.)

I can get really technical about what I think happened. Let's just say that some guys produce some "lubrication" when they get excited, and that happens to many guys several times throughout the night. So, during sleep, lubrication leaks out and dries at the tip, partially sealing the opening. The result: a messed up stream first thing in the morning.

I'll walk into the bathroom with a protractor tonight. Hopefully my roommate doesn't ask. :laugh:

Oh, he got "slammed" outside of the law, too, many times, I'd assume. It was senator Larry Craig of Idaho, a republican hypocrite with an openly homophobic voting record. He was busted by an undercover cop cruising for ass in a men's room at the Minneapolis/St. Paul international airport. Oh, the irony.

(How'd you like to be that cop? Carsina, you're on bathroom duty in the C concourse: gay sex patrol. Ugh! Out of all the reasons I'm not a cop, that's one of them.)

Fixed. And I love the irony of that story. It's freakin' great! :laugh:

Dude, don't knock it till you've tried it. Like I said, it beats turning on a light and having to wait for your eyes to adjust and then being blind for a minute or so after you turn it off and make your way back to bed. 😛

Besides, if your masculinity is defined by whether or not you stand up everytime you pee I think you've probably got other major issues to work out.

I'm too tired to stand in the middle of the night, so either I'll sit down or I'll lean up against the wall and miss the toilet thereby pissing in the heating vent.

No, wait, I think I'll sit.

It's not like it's a lazer beam. haven't you seen Me myself and Irene?

It does what it wants, when it wants to.
 
It just makes me laugh when guys use the stalls to take a leak.

Just like guys that take showers in their briefs or boxers at the gym. Those are the same guys then put on their business dress clothes and get into their raised, turbo diesel F350 extended cab to go back to their office job.

If it can be pissed on, it will be pissed on. That's just how it is with guys. The floor is fair game, as is an arcing blast into the sink, and the stall doors.
