The Practicality of the Dreaded Urinal
this entry brought to you by the rapture, "heaven"
So, I started using urinals consistently for the first time since... well, ever, actually. I have always picked an empty stall over urinals, and have only gone to urinals as a last resort.
But I read this article that had said a lot of hippies and earth-conscious rich people have been installing urinals in their bathrooms to save water. And that kind of got me thinking. You know, why waste all that water just taking a pee? When we had water leaks back at the trailer and have to turn off the water to keep from flooding, we would turn it back on after a poop to flush, but pee? Let it accumulate. I mean, yeah, it stunk after a while, but it wasn't worth turning the water back on. And it was then that I realized how much water is wasted just pissing.
So I started using urinals. I've noticed it saves time, too, as I don't have to worry about the door behind me or anything. I still head straighht to a stall if even just one person is using one of the two urinals, and I despise how people coming in the restroom behind you seem encouraged to make small talk with you (What's going on? What do you think is going on, jackass?) so it still takes some getting used to. But look! I've just taken another step towards being a normal human being!
