You cannot make this stuff up.

Left Party members of a Swedish county council said they want to encourage men using the council's toilets to sit during urination.

They want to pass a motion the toilets reserved of stand up peeing be labeled.  The author of the motion hopes this leads to sitting only bathrooms.

Is motivated by feminists ideas or is this in reaction to men who can't aim properly and don't clean up their messes?  Judging by the comments in the article, it is the latter.  However, it won't help as a lot of that is deliberate I think.

For several years I worked on management staff for one of the business units in my company.

These were VERY heavy hitters in their field. One guy had been a deputy director of CIA, one had been the number two at NSA, we had at least three retired 4 stars (two Navy, one Marine) and a BUNCH of lesser general officers...

Not one of them could hit a toilet.

After 3 p.m. I wouldn't even go into the men's room in our wing. The floors were awash in urine, and as often as not there were feces in locations OTHER than the toilet bowl.

...there were feces in locations OTHER than the toilet bowl.

I've always wondered exactly how that occurs. Then again, I probably don't want to know.

Our two maintenence techs are rotund.  They both have issues making a mess, to the point that the wimmin folk at work have complained.
I opined that it's because they can't see thier equipment.....  :lol:

Problem is, no one can see their ass when they're crapping.

But, the very design of the modern toilet makes that unnecessary. You don't need to see your ass to adequately "drop the kids off at the pool."

Except that some of the fools I worked with were dropping their kids off in downtown Newark.

That.

People who do it in places entirely different than toilets - say, mass transit buses - have at least the advantage that they, for some sick, perverse reason, made a depraved decision that they deliberately wanted to do it in a mass transit bus.

People who fail to reach the toilet by just a foot, them I do not understand. (failing rare and unforeseen medical issues).

You think that *expletive deleted*it is accidental? Hell *expletive deleted*ing no they do it on purpose because they are mother *expletive deleted*ers who should be shot, and then shot again.

Worthless wastes of oxygen.

Could be that they are so fat that they can barely reach their junk let alone see it while being really bad at point shooting.

Another explanation is there has never been any sort of marksmanship training in these men's lives.
We had to teach my son when he as 2 or 3 the skill by throwing a Cheerio in the bowl to aim at- the whole 'aim small-miss small' concept.

Some urinal maker in Europe embeds an image of a house fly in their porcelain to provide an aiming point.

I don't understand why the problem exists.... maybe it's a question of sight radius?

I can't think of the name of the movie but Jack Nicholson plays a man recently widowed by his controlling wife of many decades.  He's sitting on the toilet peeing and suddenly realizes that he can now pee standing up after all these years.  So he does.  Then he goes hands-free, chuckiling to himself.  Then he misses the toilet on purpose and I think it ends up with him walking around the bathroom just peeing on everything.  :rofl:

Personally, I think it is deliberate for the vast majority of those that do.  I am not sure I can even speculate as to why. 

If it wasn't deliberate, there would be a whole lot more guys walking around with wet pants legs and shoes.

Generally, wimmen's public toilets are nastier than men's, and it's not for the reason you might think.  It's because instead of sitting down they try to "hover" and end up peeing all over the place -- or worse.  So then the next lady doesn't want to sit.  A vicious circle.

A comic strip years ago, I think it was "Crankshaft", talked about cleaning the Ladies Room at the gas station with kerosene.  "Kerosene and what?", another character asked.  "A match"

Yes. To be fair, ladys rooms are often packed and we often see the face that belongs to the butt that was seated there before us, and, well, if that's how they take care of their face, I don't want to know how they sanatize the other end.  [barf]

Oh, have no fear, we have our far share of asshats. Used lady products belong in the convinatly located trash receptical located in each stall, yet I'm always backing out of a stall I just entered in a hurry due to improperly "disposed" of lady products.
Also, no one knows how to flush.  ;/

I sit to pee at home, or when at the home of someone I know. In public places I stand, as I don't know who or what was sitting on the seat before me. When it comes to #2, I try to wait until I'm home, if at all possible.

I was in a hurry one time and in one of the AA clubs I go to the ladies room is exactly the same as the men's room, there was three guys waiting and no one in the ladies room-so I locked the door and used it.

One of the guys there said "That's the ladies room"

So I put my hands on my hips and said "I am a woman!"


 =D =D :angel: :angel: :laugh: :laugh:

I doubt he has ever questioned anyone again, if there is only one toilet in a room why don't they just put a darn restroom sign up anyway....it was a lot cleaner too.

Used lady products belong in the convinatly located trash receptical located in each stall

I've been wondering what those were for.  Kinda figured, but I never asked.  I got shoved in the Girl's when I was a kid and wondered why they put a tiny trash can under each commode.  I also didn't get the color.  The boy's was blue tile, but the girl's had green.  I thought pink would be more appropriate.  An ideas there?

I had the grand opportunity once to pee exactly on the Continental Divide, right on the stone marker.  Had Wife1 check to see if anyone else was around.

I took the position, made sure of my sight picture, took a deep breath, let half my breath out, and let it go.

My aim was true and I was secure in the knowledge that exactly one half would end up in the Atlantic Ocean, and half in the Pacific.

A personal best.
