Someone help… Please… Help...

THE BIG SITT · April 11th, 2012, 02:47 PM

Throughout my entire life, there has always been that one question that has always haunted me. I always thought "Don't worry Andy, you'll learn the answer as you get older." or "One day, your life experiences will lead you to a glorious epiphany."

Needless to say, I am still in the dark. Although I am young by most standards (21), I feel like I am more than old enough and mature enough to be enlightened. So here I am, relying on my fellow Ninjetters to hit me with some knowledge.

Why on earth does nearly every public restroom utilize two different types of urinals. Theres always the standard pisser seen here:
2353.prd.s.020.jpg

This urinal is used for all of the standard height pissers.

Now for the burning question. Why do they use a different kind of pisser altogether for the handicapped/children's urinals. Often times, I see a pisser like so:
189.prd.s.020.jpg

This makes so sense to me. What type of condition does someone have that they aren't able to use the normal pissers; they can only use one of these funky ones?

So please, enlighten me.

If you must ask, then you are not ready to know.

Are those second kinda usually lower to the ground? I think my office back home has that second kind on the end but it's lower to the ground. Could be just to make it easier to hit the target. *shrugs*

Precisely! But that just makes me think "if a person can aim at one of those, why not te other kind?"

he is right you know

most places have multiple type to be ADA compliant.. which gets them free advertising as an ADA compliant business

TnNinjaGirl · April 12th, 2012, 10:48 AM

I'll venture a guess....

I would say the second kind are for ADA compliance, which makes them very expensive. It probably costs less to install the first kind so they have a mixture.

EthioKnight · April 12th, 2012, 10:56 AM

This is just too philosophically deep for me to even contemplate...

USMCEvan · April 15th, 2012, 08:05 PM

For those of us who are too big to stand so close to the first kind, so we are able to stand further back and still be over the bottom edge and not drip on the floor (you know, the last few drops that don't have as much pressure as the main stream). That's all it is.

You gotta be "gifted" to get it, that's all.

xSean13 · April 15th, 2012, 08:26 PM

And what about the ones that go all the way to the floor?

Jono · April 15th, 2012, 08:46 PM

ewww...i never knew things like that even exist. i always thought females had it worse since we have to squat n place our ass on public toilets but that my friend is just nasty, just looking at it in that pic makes me sick let alone coming near one in person...

greg737 · April 15th, 2012, 09:50 PM

Forget about the urinals, what I've always wanted to know is why some guys have to spit into the urinal before they can start pissing? What's up with that?

I notice this a lot in the military. No idea why. Then again, I'm not one of those guys who just spits all the time. It really sucks out here because our compound only has porta-potty urinals so they're phlegm/spit mixture gets stuck to the plastic. Pretty gross.

For the record...

Link to original page on YouTube.
...a lot of American guys aren't too familiar with them either!

I was a custodian at Walt Disney World for a while. I had all sorts of questions after that. lol I want to know how so many dudes pee on TOP of the urinal. Seriously, is just taking a leak on the wall so difficult that you can't pull it off?

Those are nothing. Never used the big round ones where you all piss towards each other in a circle? What has been seen.....

Miles_Prower · July 5th, 2012, 07:47 AM

oh those trough type ones..i had bad memories at college. they had one at this popular bar and my friends always dragged me to that place. I have a tiny bladder so I have to pee after every drink but I had stage fright so to speak, so I never went to the trough. I would always end up having to hold it until we went somewhere else LOL.
