Yes, what’s the big deal about peeing standing up anyway? As any woman knows, it just means an increased likelihood of spray in all directions. Apparently it’s now fashionable among Japanese men to pee sitting down like women. At least it would keep the toilet cleaner.
All guys end up sitting down to pee in the end anyway although before that finally becomes necessary it does make it a bit easier during the proverbial “I can’t hold it any longer” pit stop on the highway.
As for the brains part of it I plead the fifth. I’ve been around long enough to know when I should keep my opinion to my self.
A little boy and a little girl went on a picnic and they both had to pee.
They went behind a tree and she had to lift up her dress,then her slip and then she had to pull down her panties and squat down and only then could she pee.
The little boy just unzipped,whipped it out and peed against the tree. The little girl was stunned and said,
” Wow, what a handy little gadget to bring on a picnic.”
Haha . .you lot! There’ll be no spraying in my bathrooms thank you. Actually I toilet trained Adam using a ping pong ball in the loo and asking him to take aim. Unlike many, he’s now right on target!
Magpie - I once heard that if you lay one piece of loo paper on the surface of the water it actually prevents or lessens splash-back. I will let you test it!.
I’ve had a lot of fun with our Rory who still pee’s out through a hole in his tummy due to his unusual plumbing arrangements from his secondhand kidney.
Recently he’s become fascinated with all things lavatorial - so last week instead of emptying his overnight urine bag into a jug, I walked him to the loo and we emptied it straight in - all 400 ml of it! He got such a kick out of it, shrieking with glee loving the fact that he was peeing like a big boy - even if it was coming out of a plastic tube!!
lol it reminds of an episode from “The Big Bang Theory”. Lenoird has a thing for his neighbour Penny and she wants her t.v. from her old boyfriend back. The boyfriend is known to be a big fellow who can thrash people. Lenoird agrees and his friend Sheldon, the geek extraordinaire, responds, “This has but only one conclusion, you think with your penis”.
In defense of men though, women being the naturally kinder and generous version, Eve shared her brains with Adam. In the process men and women both became smart and dumb at the same time ;).

It’s just good manners when in someone else’s house! That’s what I was taught..and for the very reasons of spray…
Gives a whole new meaning to “Let uspray.”
Now those Brains…just look where it’s landed us…she was responsible for “The Fall ” after all!

@Nick- A Table-tennis ball and NOT a billiard ball in the bowl is the answer… aim low!
@Magpie - She only had ONE apple!
Now we are told to have at least 5 pieces of fruit a day. What fun! :rol:

@Kirk M - Welcome to the party. You are a brainy man staying stumb!
@Nancy - Wait until she grows up!
@Baino - That idea should be in all the baby training hand-books.

It’s the splashes that are a nuisance…saw some figures on it! a radius of up to 2 feet (60cm) splash zone!

I had a note framed and put up in our guest toilet that read “Stand Closer, It Is Shorter Than you Think”.
May God give your anonymous fan long life and lots of sources for such gems.

@Ramana - I am sure that signs are being printed as I type. for many another guest bathroom. Amen, and Ah! Men! to my anonymous friends!
