[weslinder] No-handing it at the urinal, acceptable practice?

I'm not weslinder, but my feeling is there's some serious risk involved unless you have some semi-wood going on. And why would you, in a public restroom?

 

My tendency is to say that it's not acceptable, but I can't account for others' aiming ability. I need a hand to aim, so I won't no-hand it. If you can aim well without hands, more power to you.

 

No hand it like a champ

 

Only if there is some level of drunkenness with the pee-er...and the no handing approach is due to one hand holding said cause of drunkenness...and the other is used to prop against the wall...to keep from falling into said urinal.

 

I have to always two hand it.

showboating in a public restroom is never appropriate.

Plus I think it's textbook reckless endangerment (to his khakis... or to other people if he's at one of those old school pee troughs), or possibly gross negligence. The janitor would concur with the gross part. If he sings 'wiggle wiggle wiggle' ala LMFAO when he's done, a beatdown might be necessary.

and asking for a helping hand from a friend is definitely offside.

 

Why? What is the point? Is your penis not clean? Is the shaft so full of bacteria and filth that merely touching it will make your hand melt off?

Or do you have something else to do with your other two hands while at the urinal? Helping other guys out, maybe?

The point is, there's no valid reason I can see not to hold your penis while you pee. It reduces the risk of peeing on your leg (super flaccid) or over the urinal (super hard) and helps in directing the stream to reduce splash.

 

i have to hold it...

...to keep it from touching the bottom of the urinal.

 

Thanks to the links in this thread, I went on a Clutchfans bathroom etiquette journey and tried to rep this post, only to find that I already repped it a year ago!

Well done, SunsRocketsfan

 

Clearly, standing at the urinal is an inappropriate time to assume such a lais-sez-faire position. Perhaps if one was at one of those long troughs, feeling lucky.

 

I did not know anyone even did this. My piece would prob look like a fire hose with no one at the helm, everyone look out!

 

The time period of a pendulum's swing is primarily dependent on the inverse square root of its length. Just thought I would throw that into the discussion.

I think the no hands things is a little weird. But one hand on cell phone and one on junk is almost just as bad.

Worst of all is urinal companies with (I'm assuming?) female designers who make poorly-angled splash surfaces, unless the idea is to decorate khakis.

 

this drives me nuts....to get splattered

 

Friend of mine told me he was once at a urinal and notices a guy walk up next to him that proceeds to piss with both hands on his hips. Perplexed by this, my friend decides to look more closely at this individual, only to find out that it was none other than Rudy T himself. True story.

 

I've peed next to Rudy T! Back when the Rockets had camp in Austin, I was lucky enough to know someone who knew the head bball coach at the high school they held practices. So, I see him going to take a piss and I follow him in so I can have my chance to say whassup to the best coach of all-time.

 

How the hell can you even tell?
