Just a friendly reminder...

  • friendfromlowry
    Being back at school today, it's amazing how many guys don't understand bathroom etiquette. And I'm not referring to washing your hands or flushing or whatever -- I'm saying that if I'm at a urinal, DON'T come up next to me in the immediately adjacent urinal. Especially with these urinals being eight inches from each other with no border or separator. Just stand there and wait your turn. No one will think you're awkward - they will understand and respect you.
    Here's the urinal game to practice:

    Given a choice I won't pick one beside you, but there's no way I wait to piss if there is an empty urinal.
  • majorspark
    That's not the worst. Why do some people feel the need to strike up a conversation at the urinal? These people have no shame.

    We have this dude at the office that will clamp anyone up at the shitter. Drops his pants on the floor around his ankles. Baring his fruity boxers. Grunts, farts, and explodes in the shitter with impunity.

    Exactly, how insecure does a guy have to be to gripe that there's a person next to you? Goodness, even at Augusta National one of the men's restrooms still has the trough with no barrier. If you're that embarrassed to pee next to another guy, don't force your idiosyncratic behavior on the rest of society, wait for a toilet with a door and sit on the throne and pee like a woman.

    Agree with this...where you park it is not the problem, but all men know that there is no small-talking in the head...just look straight ahead...shake it when you need to...and get on wit your bidness.

    Empty urinal = I pee.

    Ah, that rip-roaring OSU education at work again! ;)

    Teasing. I agree with you. I never opt for the adjacent stall if there are other options (mostly because I know some guys just aren't secure with the whole thing), but if nobody is using it, I'm using it.

    If there is no other choice I am definitely using the empty urinal. Don't worry, 99% of the time no one is going to try and sneak a peak of your little baby penis.

    This...if ya gotta go, ya gotta go.
  • said_aouita
    I'll use the sink in either the guys or girls bathroom if I gotta go bad enough. Happened plenty of times on High Street back in the day.
  • Con_Alma
    This isn't bathroom etiquette at all.

    I'm with the others on this issue. If there's an open urinal I'm using it, no matter where you are standing.

    Sometimes there are only three urinals. if you are in the middle, i am definitely not waiting while two urinals goto waste. even if there is a little kids urinal available, i am still going with the adult sized one first whether you are next to it or not.

    biggest pet peeve are people who cant hit the target or shake all over the floor and you have to straddle everyone's piss.

    And sometimes only two....I can't imagine someone being upset that a person decides to utilize an unmanned receptacle. Grow the heck up, no one cares about you peeing.

    It's not a phobia, my doctor told me not to lift anything heavy.

    tl;dr
  • Laley23
    As many have said, never go next to someone with other options out there. But WAITING??? GTFOH. Im pissing if there is an empty urinal dont give a shit if its next to somebody.
  • ernest_t_bass
    I will often go out of my way to piss next to someone. I'll often join someone in an occupied stall (shitting or pissing) and piss in the pot.

    no what you should do is not piss next to them, but instead, stand uncomfortably close behind them. just tell them you dont want to make them uncomfortable by pissing next to them, so you'll just wait.

    I invented that game.

    What about the game where you know someone like friendfromlowry is waiting for you to finish, and instead of finishing, you just stand infront of the urinal and dont leave until he says something or grows a pair and uses the urinal next to you?
