Male restroom etiquette

It was funny, a little long, the unwanted sexual advance warning was funny..... still doesn't explain how men get pee on the walls and all around the toilet. Its like a charged fire hose that has been left unattended.

This in particular probably comes from playing football, try going pee in those tight pants, better yet, try just getting it out.........Our locker rooms had 1 toilet and then what looked like a funky sprinkler system on 3 walls about waist to chest high that dribbled water out constantly with a trough at your feet. The trough was the drain, you went pee on the wall and the water washed it down. I have no idea who the unlucky person was who had to paint the wall from the sprinkler down to the trough...........

How about some etiquette when it comes to designing men's bathrooms? Is it really too expensive to put dividers between the urinals? Bathrooms used to have those dividers but that was before we revealed what putzes we are when we allowed the rich to take our homes and damned near everything else we own. Are we entitled to a little dignity? Nope, I guess not.

What is really sad is there are so many putz's out there that pee all over everything intentionally. Sad.

Some drivers could not easily fit between those dividers......too many bags of potato chips and candy bars.

This thread reminds me... husband and I were at a baseball game and he used the restroom, came back and told me he caught a guy checking his junk out. Either he didn't see this video, to know it was a no no, or he was....;) propositioning him. Either way my husband was disgusted a few more beers and this guy would have been toast. Yes they need dividers. If it were women with no dividers we would all be sizing up each others choice of under garments.

I recall going out with a girl friend recently and this bathroom was gross worse part the walls were up so high you couldn't help but see everything waist down. Luckily she has already seen me naked so I wasn't to upset. (She's my MT)

I can't think of the exact location, but the Pilot franchise on I-81, north of Harrisburg, PA (around the 100 mile marker):

When you open the door to walk into the mens restroom, you can see "everything" at the first urinal. I was the unfortunate soul using the 1st urinal. Someone opened the door to walk in or out and there was 3 VERY young girls standing in the hallway just outside of the door, and they happened to look into the bathroom when the door opened. Yes - they saw "me".

I promptly complained to the manager. She said she's received multiple complaints about that setup and she had informed management. Six months later and it's exactly the same setup. I guess they can't afford a divider. I'm hoping a parent files a lawsuit against Pilot for that.

No divider can make for some interesting conversations. I remember one time I was telling the guy next to me my theory of how driving too many miles at once can cause shrinkage from lack of blood flow and you might find this hard to believe but I'm not sure he appreciated hearing it. In fact he was downright rude when I asked where he was coming from and remarked how Detroit to New York is a pretty tough day.

(Just in case it isn't obvious, I AM joking. I'm not that brave... or dumb.)

Europe has it right, I think. Most of the stalls I saw there had floor-to-ceiling walls.

That might be true in a few cases but it's not the reason. Anybody that big is too big to leave their house and even if they did manage to be in a public restroom, 9 times out of 10 they can use the urinal at the end or the handicapped stall.

Nope, it's because we're putzes. We allowed the rich to hollow out the country and take nearly everything we owned and then we punished them with a gift of 700 billion dollars. And to top it off, 1/2 of us believe Fox News when they tell us it's the poor people's fault that the rich people stole from us. If you look up putz in the dictionary you'll find a picture of someone who allows his brain to be turned to mush by Fox because he thinks some blonde has great legs or a decent rack. We are putzes and because we're putzes no one in their right mind is going to spend maybe $40 on a urinal divider to afford us some dignity.

I do try but I'm very good at failing at most everything. :) I tried to watch the video and quit after a couple of minutes. I didn't think it was very good. I thought the thread picked up a bit when Mal started talking about how he was discovered and how he's looking forward to a brilliant future as an adult film star. :)

Oh... I must have misread that post. I thought Mal was talking about his "mini-me!" :D


[Sorry Mal.... J/K.]

MichiganDriver 10-20-2012 05:33 PM

Keep in mind Hobo that the talent spotters weren't even in the same room with Mal and he didn't say how far down the hall they were. I'm afraid to ask. I'd rather not know. :o

That would be Pine Grove, PA. I was just up there a few weeks ago at the DG, but didn't go to the Pilot.

I've seen that video a long time ago, and it still amuses me. I, too, can't stand the way that the urinals are arranged in there.
Speaking of urinals, something rather amusing always happened to the ladies that visited the older dorms at my alma mater. ALL of the restrooms had urinals (no dividers, though), whether they were marked for men or women. The reason is that said school used to be all male, but is coed now.
