Society & Culture Why do you piss in the cubicles?

[JiggaDog]

Maybe an odd thread, but this has pissed me off (pardon the pun) one too many times ...

You go into a public dunny with an uncontrollable urge to back one out and start looking for an available cubicle only to realise there's piss all over the seats. To answer your call of nature, you'll either need to grab handfuls of dunny paper to mop up someone elses ill directed urine, or do the stand on the seat and squat (just adds to the filth problem and is generally limited to one ethnic group).

So .... that's the problem .... but the question is:

Why the **** are you doing a piss in the cubicle instead of the trough?

Is it because you're scared others will see your manhood (or lack of)?

Do you have difficulties urinating under pressure? (one of my mates is genuinely afflicted by this)

You don't want to get splashes on your shoes?

Your antisocial side comes to the fore every time you visit a public dunny?

So ... unless you piss sitting down, IMO the cubicle should be reserved for shitting only, with any man caught only urinating in there open to public ridicule.

Got no probs with people pissing in the cubicle.

however, under no circumstances is it ever acceptable to wee on the seat and not clean it up.

 

[BEEG]

Most of the times i will use the trough

But if i walk in and see it free i will just go in there much easier unless its filthy

Nothing to do with being worried or having others around me it does get annoying though sometimes the piss splashing back at you or having the smell just smash into your face from below you

 

[Jesse Custer]

As BEEG said, most of the time i'll use the trough. The smell is the problem.

Sometimes though i want some privacy when im pissing and that's when i decide to use the cubicle. I try and aim in the dunny at least.

When some wierd Japanese guy begins staring at me in the Bali International Airport toilets when I undid my zipper, I couldn't help but do it back up and go into a cubicle.

never stand on a toilet. while at TAFE (completing first aid course) we were shown images of really bad accidents that paramedics see first hand.

anyway. some girl used a public toilet and was covered in piss so she decided to stand on the toilet and squat over it. the weight of her standing on it broke the cermaic bowl and she came crashing down. slicing her hamstring all the way up her leg, past her buttocks and up her back.

basically a massive slice that the surgeons could peel back and fourth and see her muscles, tissues and some organs. had many many surgeries and was in months of pain and rehabilitation.

so after seeing that. i think i would rather wipe up a pissy seat then possibly go through that.

 

[Kcrack]

I absolutely hate it when guys do that. Thankfully the only time I really need to use a public toilet is when I'm out drinking (meaning I don't need the cubicle).

 

[JiggaDog]

I guess I don't see any benefits of pissing in the cubicle. Sure, the trough might smell a bit worse (not always) but there are the added benefits of not having to aim (or painting a mural), not having to touch anything (lifting toilet seat unless you piss on that too, open/close door, etc) and they mostly flush themselves.

If it wasn't for the missus I'd install a trough at home ... but I guess that's what the backyard is for.

 

[Selective Retention]

One thing with urinals is you don't want to stand in someone else's piss to do your own. Sometimes it's a cumulative thing and the piss on the floor stretches a fair way back from the urinal.

The way some cubicles are people must not want to touch the seat to pull it up so just aim and hope for the best with it down, there is surely no other explanation for the way some public toilets are left. Animals.

 

[Lemma]

Anyone who pisses in a cubicle is a girl

 

[Igloo]

I have always wondered how SO much piss gets on the floor in front of troughs/urinals. Is it because of the splashback, or do people just have horrendous aim?

Personally I aim at a bit of an angle to reduce splashback, and am nowhere near missing the thing altogether.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

i piss on the seat and on the floor etc. gotta keep cleaners in jobs.

 

[Biggy_Boy]

Maybe the question should be: why are people pissing in the toilet without lifting the seat first and aiming in the bowl?

 

[woopedazz]

I piss at the Urinal most of the time. However when I'm halfway between a little tipsy and completely sober I sometimes take the cubical if there is a few people at the Urinal already. I don't know why, but I get a shy bladder and it's hard to start when I've got one or two beers in me. Once you get started it's fine. Who knows why?

 

[Doctor Feel]

I'd rather use niether the cubicles or the trough. The cubicles in the shopping centre I work at are reverse kanga territory. There is generally shit smeared on the walls, all up the bowls, the toilets bowls themselves are generally jam packed with shit and toilet paper, the seats are covered in urine and the place smells like a gigantic indian shitbox.

End result: I got sick 4-5 times in as many months, thought it may have been the public toilets. Switched to the staff toilets which a few stores use communally (they are barely used most of the day) and voila, haven't been sick in months. I used to get sick once a year if that, until I started working in the centre.

Heck i used to always leave the toilet door open when i had to go at home and i was alone. These days i always close it.

However i will also admit for further humiliation purposes that i pee while sitting down 99% of the time . I have exceptional aim while peeing so much so that i can shoot in the middle of the bowl while the seat is down, and suffer no spillage!!. But what i hate is the final moments - i find the conclusion rather annoying (i'd rather be sitting and wait for it to finish dripping, rather than standing like a moron).

Probably something more for the "Things That Shit Me" thread than here, but anyway - When you're out at night, and someone (who's probably a bit drunk) comes in and stands at the cubicle next to you and pisses haphazardly to the point that some of their urine splashes on your shoes. I don't mind a bit of the standard "Alright mate, how's your night been?" that you get at the urinal, but just stand still and aim forwards while you're there! Don't try and paint a picture with your penis when others are standing next to you!

In situations where I'm using public toilets (most often when I'm out at night) and the urinals are full or have a few people there and I can't be bothered waiting, squeezing in or possibly getting my shoes pissed on, I just quickly duck into a cubicle.

I do also sometimes get a bit of "stage fright" though when someone's standing near me. Don't know why (not an issue when I'm alone), just happens. People probably don't notice it, but you do feel like a bit of an idiot standing there getting no result while other blokes are in and out in no time.

 

[Sylvia Saint]

I suffer sometimes from the stage-fright syndrome (does it have an official name?) and as such will always go for the cubicle when available. It's an annoying and potentially embarrassing thing to suffer from but generally no-one really notices/cares.

Not sure how many people get it, but it wouldn't be that many - so not sure what everyone else's excuse is.

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Use urinals most of the time but it depends. Sometimes there are two fat whales pissing in a 2 metre wide trough and there's two cubicles free - in that instance I'd always take the cubicle.

I don't usually judge when guys use the cubicle. Though I do find it odd when there is a urinal available, a few cubicles in use, and the guy actually waits to use the cubicle to have a piss. A shit is understandable, but waiting for the cubicle to do a piss??? Very very strange.

 

[d0gs]

Only really use public toilets when im out and I will only go for the cubicle when the trough is full and im in dire need to take a slash.

In instances where I need to back one out in public I will always do a reverse-kanga for the lols.

 

[BandF]

I piss in the cubicle and shit in the trough

 

[Hipster Doofus]

I don't

 

[WCErevival]

I always use the cubicle if I'm in a pub or out drinking. Nothing worse than trying to piss and some ******** starts talking shit to you or gets hell close and nearly pisses on you.

 

[WeetBixKid]

I'll piss in a cubicle when the urinal is really crowded & it's hard to fit in without practically touching dicks, pretty simple.

 

[WakeUpPies]

Grade 4, using urinals, a small kid comes in and pees as hard as he can....Piss everywhere.

Been using cubicles ever since.


Edit. Also want to shake it wildly without looking weird.
