Researchers have come up with two new urinal designs to prevent the spillage of “ill-aimed pee.”
Anyone, whether it’s man or woman, who pisses or shits or whatever all over a toilet (i.e. not inside) has quite likely never cleaned a fucking toilet in their life.

I mean the dick is sometimes arbitrary, even when you make sure as not to have any foreskin in the way of your urethra.
But if that happens to me, I’m usually courteous enough to take a hit of paper and at least dab most of it away. But if it’s a rank toilet with already piss waving on the floor, no thanks. Sorry. Can’t help, the amount of toilet paper in one cubicle isn’t enough. And usually the places with that level of hygiene don’t necessarily have even a toilet seat, let alone several rolls of paper.
I’ve started sitting to pee, when at home
I want to know how they estimated that
Story time.
It honestly feels like about 264,000 gallons of that were spilled at a placed I used to work. I still have no idea who the culprit(s) was.
No kidding, the problem was so bad that building management stepped in and… added chamomile scented floor mats beneath the urinals to catch and deodorize the… ugh (gross)… drippings. It was such a strong smell that it wafted out into the hallway with the subtlety of a sledgehammer. This prompted some of the women in the office to remark at how unfair it was that the men’s room was obviously getting all this extra attention. I almost can’t describe the mixture of disappointment and disgust on their faces once I explained why this was happening.
I also once had to explain to my wife that the above situation, along with the smell of urinal cakes and most gas-station-restroom deodorizers, are the reason why chamomile tea is a hard pass for me.
Sounds maybe a plumbing problem.
I’m doing MY part!!!

I seriously doubt this number, as it’s roughly 7ml for every male in America. I recall from chemistry classes that there are about 10 drops of water in a ml, so that’s 70 full-size drops - or a lot more small droplets - hitting the floor during a day of peeing a few times. A lot of it would land on the front of our pants, so it would be super common for guys to have pee liberally splattered all over our pants. That just doesn’t happen, unless maybe you did something weird like pee straight at a tile wall. The only way this could be true is if there are a significant number of guys who deliberately pee on the floor. Anybody wanna fess up?
I quit caring a while back so I could be driving up the numbers.
In space, no one can hear you pee:
where does all the p go captain? 🫣
Its part of the P - drive jet propulsion system.
Just bring back the old floor mounted types
And I know the employee bathroom where you can find it.
Which bathroom floor?
The Cornucopia looks like it’d be hell to clean

Thank you protestor. I mean it doesn’t even pass the possibility test. 300m people population, 1m litres ≈ 300L per person, per day?
You got your numbers mixed around.
1m liters/340m men = 0.00294 liters per day
That’s just under 3ml, which is very little, but still seems high. Assuming that not every man is using only the urinal, the number per urinal usage is even higher. But I also don’t know american public bathrooms, are they that filthy?
I’m sure there’s one weirdo responsible for ~70m liters, peeing at the floor at every opportunity.
It’s not my fault. It just flails around like a garden hose and even with both hands I simply don’t have the strength to wrangle that python.
Oh damn. I sure did.
It’s the opposite, it would be 1/300 L/person/day, or 1L per 300 persons
Oh yeah, sorry about that.
I’m skeptical about this.
There are like 170M dudes
And say each pee is about 300ml
Then 1 in 50 dudes needs to have a full pee on the floor every day.Ok maybe that’s a bit more believable

I’m also dubious on how the number is arrived at.
5ml per man per day misses target.
If you include the outliers that are incontinent, it makes up for the folks who skip a day or two of floor-pissing.
Lol there’s a sentence I never thought I’d type.
It probably includes the nearly microscopic droplets that spray out of the urinal.
I know I, for one, was concerned about all this wasted piss, and I’m glad there’s a team of scientists looking into a solution.
