The Psychology of Urinals: 2

[VT]

I'd choose urinal 3, this way I'm maintaining the comfort zone and not have the door annoy me.

Same thing here. Although I normally always choose the one in the middle.

I'm close to the door if there's a fire.

Wow .. those extra two feet are gonna kill you.

I could understand if you had no legs, but then why (and how) the hell are you using a urinal anyways?



ONE urinal comfort zone is enough, anything else sends people to whizz in the toilet.

Number 2

#2 - see first thread for explanation

#2. Two urinal gap, no door problems, and if another guy was there beforehand, he's likely going to be there only a few seconds longer, so there shouldn't be a problem with taking up more space.

I would go for urinal number 2. becuase, I wouldn't get hit by the door, and I wouldn't go stand right next to the dude taking a piss. I would get the **** scared out of me if a guy picks the urinal right next to me if all the others were open.

What is wrong with number 1??

Also, what if there is a guy right behind you. You'll either be standing right next to him or you've forced him to stand right next to the other guy.

Why on earth would you not pick the first one??

I chose #2 also mainly because of a previous incident. Say a guy is in #5 and you're in #1. Another guy comes in briskly in such a hurrying manner that just tries walking right around the alcove and into stall #1 not being able to see the person but rather bump right in the guy that's pissing. (You)

You know what Sage there's just to many rules.

Of course! This is serious business! You don't pee carelessly, do you? Every part of the peeing process needs to be carefully considered (my alliteration monitor just exploded).

Again, all of you choosing #2 are being rather inconsiderate. Would you like to be the one who walks in when two people are at urinals #2 and #5? Of course not – because then you have to either invade somebody's comfort zone or be a jerk and hold up the line. #1 is a win-win situation, #2 is a losing situation for at least one person (maybe even both of you).

Are you serious? I've never seen that happen before in my entire life of pissing.

Its happened to me too.

 

[Solid Lifters]

Number 2 urinal, unless 1 or 3 has a bigger urinal cake. Hmmmm, urinal cake

OK, what do you do if your pants "gets away from you" right in the middle of a mickey. Do you stand there wizzing with your bare ass to be seen by all? Or pinch it off, bend down and pull up your pants? OK, you're all alone, but there is some activity right outside the door.

 

[Iceman]

That happens to you?

How the hell do you manage to let your pants get away from you? All you do is unzip the zipper ....

Err, I don't think most of us go commando…

Sage my friend you forget to regard wind. Everytime that door opens there's a possiblity that your pee could end up on your kakis and le odour de urine could be the new fragrance you'll be wearing all day.

Also everytime someone opens the door there is a chance that a lady could pass by and see you doing your dirty manly job. And not to mention if someone has taken a dump and that smell rushes out the door and that woman sees your face she'll immediately match your face with the stench of crap.

Wind? There's wind in bathrooms? See below.

Also everytime someone opens the door there is a chance that a lady could pass by and see you doing your dirty manly job.

Every single bathroom I have EVER been into that was outside of the home has had some sort of barrier between the urinals and the door to prevent any sort of unintended 'indecency' (or wind).

And not to mention if someone has taken a dump and that smell rushes out the door and that woman sees your face she'll immediately match your face with the stench of crap.

No they won't. Unless those women you speak of have no sense at all or are 6 years old.

Yes when people open doors Air rushes throught them.

Wind (air that rushes in when the door is opened) will come in most likely in less it's a 2 door....door.

No they won't. Unless those women you speak of have no sense at all or are 6 years old.

.........Yes they will.......next time she takes a dump she'll remember your face. Probably.

 

[Sw3d1sh]

Man, you're really insecure. What's the worst that can happen, anyway? I don't care where others stand, as long as it's not directly behind me. (rape. ah!)

I do get that way when I have to take a major dump in school, though. Whenever there are morons causing a commotion outside, it just takes the urge away. It's only at school though. I remember one time this kid came running in the bathroom while I was trying to get something down on paper. It was like the apocalypse....he really had it bad. I couldn't help but silently laugh my ass off.

No, it's not being insecure that's the problem. It's something else and I can't put my foot on it. Something about having a guy stare at your manhood while your trying to do your business just doesn't do it for me.

 

[VT]

I highly doubt that its enough air to cause shifting of the piss-line unless either A) you're in some sort of pressurized bathroom, or B) its windy as crap outside of the bathroom, which isn't likely if you're inside.

Wind (air that rushes in when the door is opened) will come in most likely in less it's a 2 door....door.

See above.

.........Yes they will.......next time she takes a dump she'll remember your face. Probably.

Not unless you smell that way all the time. In which case I suggest you take a nice long shower.

 

[the_undrtaker89]

first of all there is air conditioning outside(right now I'm refering to a mall washroom and I have been this whole time.) when there is ac in the mall and there isn't any in the washroom. When someone opens a door into the washroom air will rush in. And don't make me draw a diagram.
Second smell is the most influential sense on memory. So ****+your face = You

Ok, I can see that. Although, I still don't think it will be enough to move your stream a considerable distance to get it on your pants. Unless of course .. well .. I'm not going to go there.

Just because someone sees you in a bathroom that doesn't smell too good doesn't mean that they equate you with a shi*tty smell. Public bathrooms don't usually smell too good in the first place, so the fact that you were inside one at the time of the smell doesn't mean a thing when it comes to a specific person in someone else's memory.

 

[the_undrtaker89]

If it was a sudden burst of air and it usually will be it could move the stream depending how much pressure your putting. For I find it relaxing so I don't put pressure so if a burst of air suddenly hit my stream it could move bend the urine just enough to the side and I'm going to hypothesis that the curvature of the urinal at the side will send it onto your pants.
( please don't judge me by what I've said above.)
The memory smell thing, I can't prove more than what I've said. So let's just call it a draw.

 

[VT]

That post made me laugh, 👍.

so if a burst of air suddenly hit my stream it could move bend the urine just enough to the side

That must me a damn small urinal.

Just to make it clearer sorry I can't really draw.

 

[VT]

That diagram is hilarious.

 

[Omnis]

damn....do you have prostate problems or something? That stream's gotta be a line of yellow justice.

and swedish, guys staring at your manhood is gross. That's totally different than someone just taking a piss next to you.

Really though, you don't have to care so much about pissing. it's not a big deal. I've had to piss so bad sometimes, that I don't really give a damn. One time I had to pee in a parking lot, so I just opened the Explorer's front and rear doors and stood between them, opened the fly, and did my thing on the ground under the guy next to me's car. I feel bad though because i hit his side skirt at the beginning. It's only something I had to do because of the extreme emergency i was put in.

 

[EvilToast]

lmao i lost my voice from laughing so hard.

 

[the_undrtaker89]

It's fun as hell pisses on little bugs. Your god in a way and their scared like ****. Most fun you can have peeing I swear.

#3

[Touring Mars]

Ha ha! I feel vindicated by this vote... !!!

I said in thread one that most people would select urinal #2 if urinal #5 was occupied...!! Go figure....

I'd still pick #3, for the same reasons described in the first thread!!

#3... here's my logic... #1 is going to be unpopular, because it's nearest the door... most people will go for #5... if someone is at #5, the next person will go as far away as possible... but will try to avoid #1, so they will go for #2...

 

[G.T]

#3 because I then have a distance from the other person, but I'm still keeping away from the door.

What is wrong about the door - and don't say it has anything to do with wind bending your stream.

 

[Duke]

#3. A 1-urinal buffer is enough; it keeps me away from the door, but it leaves #1 open with the required buffer in case the next guy comes in before the guy over by the wall finishes draining his massive bladder.
