confused by public urinals


there are so many things i don't understand about other humans, that i doubt sometimes i am human at all. the other day i used a urinal at white castle. it was a normal public urinal, which means dirty. dried and drying urine on the rim i can understand, though it really is a large target. the amount of public hairs stuck all over the rim, though, is perplexing.

what do people do to unleash so many pubes while peeing? do they rustle it about? do they pluck and preen to pass time while peeing? are the access slits in their underwear too tight? is the average person that hairy? is this a territory marking i'm unfamiliar with?

as i say, i'm confused. there must have been forty or so pubic artifacts on the urinal at white castle. there was sufficient variety in shape and color to suggest a recurring problem rather than a single shooter. am i the only non-shedder? what am i doing wrong?

Since you brought it up ...

What's with all the snot and boogers on the walls in mens rooms? There's paper on rolls in there, you don't have to blow on the walls.

Haha, funny observation... it's almost as bad as peeing into a disgusting urnial and feeling the faint rebound spray slightly misting you in return. Ugh! Also not fond of standing in pee to take a pee in a public restroom. Why can't people get it into the urnial? What are you, three years old that you gotta hose down the floor too?

Good points. Thanks to Elmer, especially who is something of an expert (rateajohn). On little kids: I walked into a public bathroom the other day and a little kid was standing in front of a urinal with pants down around his ankles. I had forgotten that little ones need as much clothing clearance as possible.
