Splatter Factor

[Griz]

All you scientists, engineers and ski-bums out there - What is the optimum distance in metric units (keeping this scientific) to stand from a urinal to reduce splatter factor?

Ultimately the coniferous urinal is the always the best solution, but sometimes we just have to be civilized dang it!

clean out the end of your hog for more controllable stream

I'm sure it depends on the length of your 'little fella'.

I go for the "tangential join" where i aim down and to the side, with hopes that my stream will meet with the least resistance and join the shimmery flow without any backtalk.

Minimize the angle of pee-toilet incidence

[ridinshockgun]

You would also need to factor in the mean velocity of the stream.

The contributing factors to this are how long its been since you last visited the urinal, and of course, how much you've had to drink.

For example, last night at the bar 1-2 meters would have been the optimal distance.

all I know is that there is no way, regardless of angle or velocity, that those guys who get totally up to the urinals don't get splashed or just plain rub other people's urine off on themselves.

Yeah, what's up with those guys? It looks like they're trying to mount the urinal, for Pete's sake!

[Mrs Roo]

Little winkies.

Most guys I know would rather pee in the great outdoors that worry about the potential for urinal blowback.

That's great...if you're a mountain man.

It looks to me like their trying to conceal a secret document down in there or something...

Looks to me like they're a little self-conscious of someone casting a sideways glance at their little buddy... Notice, too, that these are the guys who always have to clear their throat in an overly manly fashion, exaggerate the 'flop' back into their pants (like it's three feet long), and they're definitely more likely to steal a glance at yours.

ggh you give this way too much thought. I think you're a closet peter gazer.

[yentna]

Men talking about the restroom? Thought only us chicas did that....oh, wait, that's IN the restroom.

[cj001f]

I dunno, I just pee into the hole on the floor - the urinal has a tube emptying right onto the floor

[pechelman]

incident angle is probably the most common technique to reduce splatter where you dont feel like showing off your gear.

if youre that concerned about splatter, you have two options

1. stand really far back
2. use a toilet

[G]

I usually stay back about six or seven feet.

Sometimes I dribble.

[kchri]

It depends on the amount of alcohol consumed...
