That’s Some Aim

Something I never understood: why men’s bathrooms are so dirty.

Well, I know why. But the thing I really, really don’t understand is this.

I walked into a bathroom last week and approached a urinal. There, on top of the urinal, was a lot of pee. A lot of pee. And this was the shorter of the two urinals, but the top of the urinal was still pretty damn high off the ground. How does something like this happen?

Here are the likely options.

  1. SomeoneĀ aims up instead of down just to see if they can do it. They do it, and then neglect to clean it up (because no one puts TP by urinals.)
  2. The last user of the urinal was Shaq.
  3. Someone brought their dog into the bathroom and attempted to help the dog aim into the urinal, but failed.

That’s all I got. What else could it be? Also, man, I’m tired of dirty bathrooms.

March 6th was the 100th anniversary of the Oreo. I can’t believe The Daily Ping let that auspicious date pass without notice.

Some things are more important than the Oreo. Not many. But I think urinals are one of them.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
