public urination

if you're facing this, and your source for the sex offender rumor is at all credible, you need to talk to a lawyer

period

if this is who I think it is, you write me about this, court without a lawyer is a bad scene

i wasted my pre-trial diversion thing on shoplifting misdemeanor in 2002 :( will they be harder on me for this??

my roommate told me about an arrest citation he got for having a dog without a leash or something, he said he was poor cuz hes a student & the judge gave him "1 day jail suspended sentence" which means if he ever gets sent to jail for anything else theyll add a day

I just recently peed on one of the Senate office buildings on Independence Ave. I felt very liberated.

what happened ?

if you go to court for this you aren't looking hard enough for a good spot

crucial: a pal covering for you

my friend did this outside a sandwich shop and wasnt allowed to go there for a year afterwards

(that was a judge's ruling, not the anger of the sandwich shop owner)

I got an £80 fine and a night in the cells once. The fact I was completely drunk had more to do with the latter than the p.u.

i got caught doing it in a really stupid place. i went to court and explained to the judge that everything was closed and i was on the verge of having an accident. he laughed and told me to pay like $20 instead of the $200 the ticket said.

i never paid it. :(

Is that how you got your online name? (xpost)

I pissed on Nelson's Column once, TAKE THAT IMPERIALISM.

I have taken to calling people out for this in my neighborhood. I mean, it's downtown Manhattan, there are a billion bars with a billion restrooms. Any non-homeless person peeing on the sidewalk is clearly just fronting.

(I think I've only urinated in "public" once as an adult, at an overcrowded house party with a half-hour bathroom line, and I waited forever and agonized about it before sneaking off down the back alley and going behind a dumpster. The police rolled up behind me before I finished, but they were just coming by to issue a warning about deck capacities.)

never been to court for it, but a Tijuana police officer did rob me at gunpoint for doing this 10 years ago. I too had the decency to find a dimly lit alley, but if I recall, it was in front of the dumpster and not behind it.

I pretty much live on 'pee alley' in the Mission.

Once in NYC my friend and I were peeing in an alley downtown (on our way to the subway late night in an unfamiliar environment) and had cops roll up on us. They drove past the alley in an unmarked car, reversed, turned off their lights and started heading towards us, *totally* creeping us out (had *no* idea they were cops).
Followed by about 5-10 minutes of a tough lady cop feeding us a bunch of classic lines we will never forget: "Oh, coupla' California boys huh?" "Ahh... so it is, so it is" (when checking our IDs) "Hmm.. I wouldn't know. I'm not from AROUND here." (when we asked if we were close to the subway).
Turns out they thought we were tagging and she was *pissed* when they didn't find any spray cans or paint on our hands, and they just sent us on our way.
The end.

But yes, I do this frequently. I think it's sort of an accepted necessity when you end up in remote parts of a city after closing hours. Just be smart about it, right?

well, this revive was brought to you by a drunk guy peeing on a busy corner at 8:30 on a Sunday

xp chinavision: I once left a toilet (long story) on Capp St. in the Mission (just north of 16th). I doubt it stayed there for very long, but maybe some people got to use it and feel a bit more dignified.

i saw a lady poop on the sidewalk once

in Dublin there was nowhere to piss once shops etc close, total nightmare as bars don't want to let you in or they're all closed by the time you're coming home, hence have urinated in public tons of times. one time a police officer caught me and gave me a sort of lecture ending with "does your mother work?" "yes." "what if your mother had to open her shop front tomorrow and someone had pissed on it?" and I said "she works in a shopping centre so it could never happen." he actually lolled a bit and let me off, which was cool.

have to say I think cities can't be strict on this unless they're providing as many good usable non rape zone public toilets as possible.

i got caught doing it in a really stupid place. i went to court and explained to the judge that everything was closed and i was on the verge of having an accident. he laughed and told me to pay like $20 instead of the $200 the ticket said.

LMFAO

Yesterday I watched a guy in a silver BMW pull into the pay lot across the street from our place, park in the far back corner and jump out to very obviously p.u. Well screened I guess, since there's a retaining wall and a building there, but still. Since Seattle sold off and removed all its space-aged self-cleaning public toilets, there's been a whole lot more of this in my neighborhood, mostly in alleys. But one guy whipped it out against the side of Elliott Bay Books just as I was walking past - had to step across the stream as it headed toward the subgrade steps going to the lower level cafe. I made the mistake of saying "dude that is just gross", which caused him to turn toward me, still pissing. D.N.W.

similar thing happened to me i think two years ago. i went to take the garbage out and a car was driving through the alley. he stopped and opened his door and i thought he was just dropping someone off. it was getting dark and his headlights were bright so i couldn't see him or what he was doing at all until he saw me and said "oh i am so so sorry. soooo sorry." i was like "what?" thinking maybe he'd run over a cat and thought it was mine? then i realized. i felt bad for him because i wouldn't have known if he hadn't said anything but he probably thought i could see him the whole time.

also witnessed this yesterday because i go to farmers' market before all the homeless people wake up. as i was coming home the guy who always sleeps on the steps of a catholic high school was awake and painting a wall. i think he saw me staring at him but didn't seem to care. i should have asked him to write my name :)

once in chicago i was stuck in traffic in the middle of the day on the inbound kennedy expressway (carpool lanes) and i saw a guy pull over to the shoulder and piss against the median, using his car as a shield.

he saw me and said "oh i am so so sorry. soooo sorry."

ha, see, this is all I ask for, that people at least feel bad and apologetic about it. manhattan going-out neighborhood = dudes come in from elsewhere and seem to view the urination as some form of joyful, robust self-expression or something, like it's cool.

As the passenger in a car on the LIE I once had to go to the bathroom so badly that I just couldn't wait and the nearest exit was too far. I wound up peeing in an empty cup that was in the car but got caught by the ppl in the only other car on the road at 2:00 AM who happened to catch up with us just then. Tbh I think I was too proud of my awesome feat (which was pretty difficult to manage) to be as embarassed as I might have otherwise been.

a year or so ago, I caught this big Ethiopian dude who was patronizing the bar across the alley from my practice space about to piss in my doorway. He was apologetic, though because he was drunk and English wasn't his native language, it took a little bit of explaining and gesturing to convey, "Bad idea, dude." I think I told him to go piss against one of the cars in the dealership lot across the street.

let's be fair here: peeing outside is awesome

peeing in my doorway is not awesome

i'm not saying it's okay if people see you/catch you in the act--it's totally lame--but peeing outside, everyone: fucking awesome.

doorway peeing: not awesome

i was pretty impressed by this homeless guy because he managed to do it in a way that looked like he was just slowly strolling along. if you drove by in a car you'd have no idea.

ENBB

please tell me you have a penis

LOL

Loooooooooooooooolllllllllllllll

That may be the strangest thing anyone has ever said to me.

No Hondurian no penis here. I was also wearing jeans so now you can understand how amazing the fact that I managed to accomplish this really was.

i saw a guy taking a piss in front of a cash machine i had been planning to use earlier this year. it was night and the street wasn't especially busy but still pretty fucking visble what is wrong with ppl. i'm not sure if he was actually using the cash machine at the same time. wanted to say something but didn't. i basically despise all public urinators who are not as discreet as me.

*small bow*

i didnt think so, but i had to make sure. you get a gold star for that story.

I was pissing against a tree in a public park by a river in Louisville, KY while visiting my childhood hometown. My boyfriend was ten yards away looking in the other direction as I do my biz. So I'm doing my thing and about to zip up when I hear a car noise all of a sudden and then oh god "Put your hands up or I'm going to blow your head off boy" and turn to see, yes, a Highway Patrol officer who has drawn his gun and is pointing it at me. I explain that I was just peeing and ask to be allowed to zip up. My bf and I are separated and it turns out that the park is a cruising area and this guy thinks that 1) we were about to have sex there or 2) we were going to expose ourselves to children in this park (apparently the field nearby is sometimes used for kids sports, tho it was abandoned that day duh). The contradiction between 1 and 2 doesn't really seem like a good thing to bring up right now. A lady cop comes over to me while my boyfriend is being questioned and actually says to me "What were you doing?" "I was peeing." "Well, don't do that. You don't see me doing something like that." Seriously, she says this to me, like, no shit lady, unless you brought your stadium pal you aren't likely to resort to this are you? Anyway, the result was a total farce in which I was put into a cop car, more cop cars show up, I am charged with "indecent exposure", it being a corrupt small Southern town I get an influential relative to have a word with the right judge and just drop the charges. The good news is that they never searched the car that we had used to drive to the park; there were unlicensed firearms in the trunk and it would have been awkward to explain the shotgun and ammo that we borrowed from a friend to go to the gun range with. Ah, Kentucky . . . .

I've always felt that, if you're being discreet and making an effort to not pee on anything, there's nothing wrong with p.u. There have been many times, walking around various parts of Chicago, when I can't find a public restroom to save my life. It's a natural and necessary bodily function that many businesses (even cafes, which makes no sense to me at all) don't make any concession towards. What, am I supposed to just have kidney failure over here?

I peed in an orange grove in Florida on my way to Orlando when there was a 6hr traffic jam on the Florida Turnpike.

omg @ DD's story

I just felt like it was such an insane over-reaction. I get why it's lame to pee in an urban setting; I lived in the Misson around the corner from a liquor store and it sucked to have a doorway that reeked of bum piss. But in a park where there's nobody around it just seems like not worth the whole she-bang. And it was scary to have that gun pointed at me, to be threatened with "taking you downtown", all the cop attitude and ridiculous sex pervert scenario when I was just peeing on a tree fer chrissakes.

yea that was a bit overkill, im surprised they didnt bust out the police tape.

omg @ "please tell me you have a penis"

Yeah, I keep laughing about that. I can honestly say that that was the first time anyone has ever said that to me before.

If a street or paved area is peed on frequently, doe the smell go away quickly, or does it go away only after rain or something else rinses it away?

girl said that to me once. i thought it was sweet. xpost

living in nyc, i see this a fair amount. i've also done it a few times, tho always late at night and in as secluded a spot as possible. (i try to be near some kind of drain too, so it's not just gonna dry up and stink. but i realize i'm fooling myself if i think i'm not contributing to the general ambient piss-smell of the city.) the most accomplished feat i've witnessed was a guy in broad daylight walking along a line of parked cars (in the street, so he was shielded from the sidewalk, but not from the other side of the street where i was). as he was strolling he just casually unzipped himself and left a trail of piss in his wake. he finally stopped to finish up behind an suv.

less impressive (tho i guess at least equipped with foresight) was the passed-out wino on my way to work one day who had taken the precaution of exposing himself before going unconscious, so his dick was flopped out on the sidewalk with a stream running from it.

having grown up in rural areas, i guess i do think of peeing outdoors as being sort of a personal prerogative. and i admit that i've encouraged the 5-yr-old to step behind trees or bushes in central park more than once, when we were a long way from a toilet.

If a street or paved area is peed on frequently, doe the smell go away quickly, or does it go away only after rain or something else rinses it away?

there are places in nyc that i'm convinced would still smell like piss 100 years after a nuclear attack.

^^^ yes. It doesn't always go away.

subway elevators are some of the worst. they always smell like pee (and you're lucky if that's the only gross thing they smell like), and i try to avoid taking them but sometimes with a baby stroller it's the easiest thing. but i went to get on one at times square a month ago and there was actually a whole fresh puddle right in the middle of the floor. i decided to just carry the stroller up the stairs.

If a street or paved area is peed on frequently, doe the smell go away quickly

Visit Minna St. at the Transbay Terminal in SF sometime.

(Answer: it does not go away at all)

a few public urinals here & there in areas where people go out drinking would solve a lot of these problems. in Amsterdam, they even have them for the ladies:

someone invent pee-odorant you will be rich! (cf. va-poo-rize)

oh right I forgot that all of SF is "pee alley"
my alley is still pretty special though

ha! San Franciscans regularly look down on Oakland, but one thing Oakland has going for it, is that it less permeated by the smell of urine.

what gets me is that my neighborhood, like lots of places people go out in this city, is filled with loads of small, one-room bars -- i.e., no cover, no line, no rigamarole -- and on most nights you could walk straight into any of them, use the bathroom, and walk out, in like a minute and a half, without anyone caring or even noticing. so if you're peeing on the street before 4am you are doing it on purpose, either for fun or to show off.

Whenever friends visit I always get a "Does it really just smell like pee everywhere?"
I have to try to make it seem like a charming detail.

there is way more of a vomit problem in the area than a pee one, but the peeing is more annoying cause it seems so willful. I can't really blame vomiters, if you vomit you vomit.

sorry, that's an xpost about my hood, not SF

I have friends that live on Shotwell, and it surprisingly doesn't smell like pee right around their place.

Yeah I do feel that for some people public urination is just kind of a signifier of the wild, unhinged time they're having...

xpost

it's like yelling "wooo" really loud on the street, self-expression through bothering others

someone peed against the side of our building the other night (I didn't see it, but I could hear it) ... no one shouted "wooo" though.

I got an £80 fine and a night in the cells once. The fact I was completely drunk had more to do with the latter than the p.u.

how did he know this

there is a semi-hilarious story in my family lore about someone (a relative whom i won't identify) pooping in the hallway of a university classroom building out of sheer desperation. i can't go into details, sadly. not sure what the statute of limitations on that kind of thing is, but it's possible the maintenance workers who had to deal with it are still alive.

I was walking up one of the alleys in Edinburgh early one morning when the girl in front spotted a guy pissing against the wall up ahead. She and I turned around (these alleys are really narrow), only for the guy to spot this and start taunting us for not coming any closer. That's not really on.

Worse, though, was when I was eating at a pavement cafe in paris and spotted a guy squatting to attend to business on the kerb across the street. I had to keep eating normally so as not to ruin everyone else's dinner, which was pretty heroic I feel.

he saw me and said "oh i am so so sorry. soooo sorry."

I got off a bus once in West LA at the same time a guy who had been riding got off, and as soon as he stepped onto the sidewalk he whipped it out and let go. He had a 64 oz soft drink cup, and I first thought he was dumping the rest of the drink because it was very loud, but then I looked and saw what he was doing. He said, to no one in particular, "I am soooo sorry."

When I was a teenager I lived in a bedroom that had been carved out of the garage, with its own door to the outside. I used to pee against our fence at night because I was too lazy to go through the house to the restroom. Later I looked closely at the post I always hit and it was stained/bleached by all the times I had done it. I figured the rain would get rid of it all.

Ugh, that reminds me of a friend at school who stayed over with a guy in our class one night, and the guy got up in the middle of the night and went against the corner of his room so as not to wake his mum up by walking through the house.

That's about the worst story here yet.

i knew a dude that peed on his roommate in a drunken stupor, TWICE! second time guy woke up in the middle and said "NOT AGAIN!!"

reminds me of friends in college who had some hometown buddies crashing in their dorm room one night. everybody got very drunk, and one of my friends woke up in the middle of the night to the sight/sound of one of the hometown dudes pissing into the dorm-room wastebasket. my friend started yelling at him ("the bathroom's down the hall, dickface!"), but the guy calmly finished peeing and then walked over to the window curtains and proceeded to mime washing his hands and then drying them. my friend realized that the guy was actually asleep, and thought he was in the bathroom. sleep pissing. they made him wash out the waste can in the morning.

^^ I allegedly did that with the kitchen trash when I was 9

x-post On of my friends did that to my garbage can in one of my dorm rooms once. It was so gross.

one of my friends woke up in the middle of the night to the sight/sound of one of the hometown dudes pissing into the dorm-room wastebasket.

yeah I have a friend who is a pissing somnambulist. One night, after a concert, he was crashing on the couch at the apt. of myself & an old girlfriend. Mind you, I'd heard legends of his having peed on houseplants, in closets & such, but had never witnessed it myself. And these were rumors which he vehemently denied.. Anyway, I awoke to find him pissing on the foot of our bed. I flipped the light on, leaped out of bed & pushed him into the bathroom, which was across the bedroom. My gf woke up, totally confused, & I ripped the soiled bedding off the mattress & stuffed it into a laundry basket,s et up some new bedding on the floor & got myself & my gf situated in our makeshift sleeping arrangements. Meanwhile, my friend stumbled out of the bathroom, lumbered across the bedroom & plopped down on the bare, piss-soaked mattress. He woke up in the morning not knowing how he had gotten there or with any recollection of what had happened.

i was eating in a restaurant with some friends one day on the upper west and an old man sitting next to us pissed himself mid-meal at his table. i won't likely forget that slowly spreading puddle on the floor, the mortified look on the man's face, and having to inform the waitress that there was a "water spill" near our table that needed to be cleaned up

I'm good for at least two of these per round when playing golf. Four if i'm drinking during the round..

what's the etiquette of golf urination? ok in the rough, not on the fairway?

i try to stay in the trees. i usually hit my balls into the woods, so it makes it convenient

you need a uroclub!

watch out the sand wedge bill

former housemate crapped in an armchair in front of a front room of astounded guests at a party once. He was asleep in the chair in the corner, and fairly pissed. just stood up, downed pants, sat down again and away he went. only woke up when reaching for the toilet roll from a dispenser that wasn't there.

until he saw me and said "oh i am so so sorry. soooo sorry."

this seems to be a pretty common reaction. one night returning home to my friend's posh apartment in the west village we saw a guy standing in front of my friend's door, looking like he was fiddling with the lock - naturally he was p.u.'ing into the grate and said the above quoted words before ambling off. hope he didn't get any on his nice calvin klein pea coat

downtown Seattle seems to reek of piss. I wonder if the reason why piss stench doesn't go away has something to do with our vestigial ancestry - like maybe once upon a time we used to mark our territory like dogs and that's why our noses are highly attuned to lingering piss smell

one of my friends woke up in the middle of the night to the sight/sound of one of the hometown dudes pissing into the dorm-room wastebasket.

Witnessed a similar event at senior week except the guy was drunk and tripping instead of sleeping and the wastebasket was a girl. She was wide awake, but I can't remember if she was tripping too.

it's kind of awful, but cities are always going to smell like pee. it's just a thing, and if you don't like it you can move to the burbs or wear a mask or carry air freshener with you

"you need a uroclub!"

That's unreal.

SF did smell like piss when I visited. It's fucking disgusting, there's no excuse for it IN THE STREET. In my city there are definitely corners and areas next to cash machines (WHY??) that reek of it but not a consistent waft everywhere you go, like I noticed in SF.

Do the residents of SF just get used to it? Is there any campaign to clean it up? Actually in some areas it stank equally bad of disinfectant, so I guess that answers my question.

Well in addition to drunk party animals, there's a very large homeless population in SF for whom it's much harder to wander into a bar or cafe. Also the fact that whenever there are public restrooms, they are invariably super-gross. I once made the mistake of trying to use one of the ones on Market (don't know what I was thinking) and after jiggling the handle, about 10 skeezy looking people came out in a drugged haze.

But is it really *that* much worse in SF than elsewhere? I feel like it's a sort of city-smell that you get in a lot of places.

I always feel bad about going into a facility just to use their restroom, unless it's a McDonalds or something

Depends where you are in SF, if you're in areas heavily populated by histpers/homeless people: yes.

Thread idea: best smelling/worst smelling cities.

i've been caught by the police twice for this.

there are few things more embarrassing, especially if you're not drunk.

the "case" was dropped by the way, both times.

I always feel bad about going into a facility just to use their restroom, unless it's a McDonalds or something

I'm partial to hotels for doing this. To not look so obvious, I'll go upstairs to the mezzanine or 2nd floor - wherever they have meeting rooms - and use the bathroom there.

Yeah, hotels are really good for that.

peepee le p.u.

I piss everywhere btw

do you have a tapeworm?

boy howdy

never been to court for it, but a Tijuana police officer did rob me at gunpoint for doing this 10 years ago. I too had the decency to find a dimly lit alley, but if I recall, it was in front of the dumpster and not behind it.

those cops make their living off that in TJ. you're almost guaranteed to get rolled up for peeing in the streets because they are hiding out waiting to catch fools.

^^ yeah, it's kinda like an unofficial tax on SDSU frat boys

^^ yeah, it's kinda like an unofficial tax on SDSU frat boys

I lolled.

I think the piss odor thing in SF also has to do with the relatively thick density (by US standards) of much of the city east of Divisadero.

yeah, I think that's a lot of it ... the less dense, less trafficked eastern part of the city doesn't smell as bad. Also, SF's large presence of homeless people plays a significant role.

^^ er western part of the city.

let's be fair here: peeing outside is awesome

― Mr. Que, Monday, September 21, 2009 6:20 PM (Yesterday) Bookmark

basically, almost all the qualities that win San Francisco high praise from environmentalists in terms of urban design & planning also contribute to the piss odor.

Yeah, as someone who grew up in the woods, I too feel almost entitled to p.u. However, I have never been caught by any law enforcement personnel and it's been a long time since anyone has even upbraided me for it. It's not all that hard to find a secluded spot and if you're lucky, you can bascially just piss into a drain to the sewer or a planter or tree root.

I didn't notice SF smelling like pee. But it was raining for most of the first week, so maybe that held the smell down.

re: discolored fence, childhood dog always peed on the same side of a post holding up the back porch. Over the years, it began eating away at the wood.

my ex-neighbours' son pissed in a box cause he didn't have time to go to the loo downstairs. his brother, sleeping in the same room, told their parents the next day. the poor boy was punished by being treated as a dog. "if you can piss like a dog, you can eat like a dog." (from the floor, though on a plate, with his hands) i sat next to him and was utterly ashamed. (this wasn't the worst they did to their kids. assholes. )

(even to this day, i get extremely sad when i think of the abuse they had to suffer and seeing how fucked up they became because of the abuse. again: assholes.)

I peed in a litter box when I was 7 or 8, just because.

xp nath: that's horrible ... it reminds me a news story I remember from when I was a kid, about this mother that made her daughter stand on the street in a halloween pig costume holding a sign saying "I am a stupid pig." (or something like that) for some minor infraction. As far as discipline goes, public humiliation is the most upsetting to me to see.

Incongruous public piss artist once prompted me and friend to say 'how did you manage to locate it?' as we walked past; guy got embarrassed and was all 'sorry sorry sorry' as we were laughing.

xxpost If I think about it too much, I start to cry.

But anyway! I peed on the street once. Middle of the night after clubbing. Boy did it feel gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood.

I and my better half were driving back from Las Vegas from his brother's wedding (the road is long stretches of nothing) and I had an unfortunate female issue at the time, and we were regularly pulling over by the side of highway for me to pee.

kind of embarrassing but late night on the NYC subway i once pissed off that little platform between subway cars. was very drunk and we had a long train ride back to wherever i was staying

was a moving train obv

glad you didn't hit the third rail duder!

wooohhf yea me too, didn't even think of that

they did a mythbusters on that. i think they concluded that you wouldn't get shocked

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tr2yUWP5ke4

worst example: I was waiting for pizza at a local place with no public restroom, and figured out they were just putting my pie in the oven. Wandered next door to a notoriously shitty bar, walked through and determined the restroom was occupied or completely unusable. Walked out the back door and pissed on the dumpster. Might have been acceptable had this not been 7pm.

best example: I have been out drinking with friends in Chicago, and end up walking alone to find the train stop. Bladder alerts me that my navigation skills better hurry up. I give up and wander down an alley that overlooks the freeway to piss before finally determining the train stop was underground.

I was in Mexico on vacation, and at a beach with just my sister and her husband, and we were about to leave, so I went around a rock (out of view) and took my trunks off to change back into shorts, and let loose with a whiz while naked, and since I had a Corona in hand I drank that while peeing, which amused me at the time (beer filter!).

At another time I was attending an art walk in West Hollywood and had gotten kind of buzzed from the wine/etc they put out, so I decided to nap in my car before driving home. I woke up around midnight with a powerful need to pee but nothing was open at this time, so I decided I'd wander the nabe until I found a safe spot. They were no secluded business areas, but the residential streets near there were dark and deserted, and many of the properties had tall hedges right at the sidewalk (I'm talking 8 feet tall), so I went against a hedge while continuing to walk so that if anyone saw me it wouldn't look suspicious. I figured dogs go there all the time, so no big deal.

Speaking of cities smelling of pee, some parts of melbourne's cbd reek of horse piss, because we have all these damn horse and buggy tourist rides that flump up and down swanston and st kilda rd, dropping steaming puddles of piss all over. It stinks so bad.

I have a feeling peeing in public in aus is somewhat overlooked as a "boys will be boys" thing, as you see it a lot and I cant think of anyone I know being done for it by the cops - though i'm sure that must happen. Probably only if you're aboriginal or something knowing our cops.

When I was staying in SF it was in a hotel that was apparently on the edge of the downtown toward the Tenderloin area (Hotel Metropolis I think?) and when I walked out the front door a couple mornings, there was a guy hosing off the sidewalk. It wasn't until I really thought about it that it seemed suspicious..

on the joys of peeing outside but not in public per se, for a year or so i lived by myself in a sort of shack in the woods, which was completely shielded from the road. especially at night, when it was just dark dark dark out there. my routine on arriving home in the evening included a stop at the side of the driveway for a good leisurely whiz while gazing at the stars. it was hokily territorial, but satisfying. (same place, i'd often just go and pee off the porch during the day. the toilet seemed unnecessary for such purposes.)

this reminds me of university 'Recovery BBQs' where loads of dudes would get around pissing their pants all day

Ha yeah thats what I'm talking about: last years St Jerome's laneway fest apparently didnt cater too well for toilets. I heard guys in queues for bands/booze would just get their wangs out and pee where they stood :/

OXNY.COM - Police in Jersey City have arrested an ex-con they say has been urinating on women at a bus stop in Journal Square, a source said Wednesday.

Nitinkumar Patel, 27, has urinated on at least seven women in the last three months, a law enforcement source said.

He was caught Wednesday morning while urinating on a 16-year-old girl at the bus stop, a law enforcement source said.

Two victims have identified Patel, the source said.

He spent almost six years in prison for aggravated assault convictions, according to the New Jersey Department of Corrections. Patel was released in January 2009.

you know I just assumed this thread was being revived because of St. Patrick's Day (on which I'm pretty sure I saw an actual cop pissing on a wall in my neighborhood, a COP)

I'm just trying to work on the logistics of this: like,

He was caught Wednesday morning while urinating on a 16-year-old girl at the bus stop, a law enforcement source said.

so did the girl call the cops, and then patiently wait for them to get there while Patel continued his heinous act? did Patel actually have that much urine in his system? he's only 27 - isn't he concerned about pissing away the best years of his life?

i just envisioned myself getting pissed on a bus stop and can't decide whether i would get on him citizen's arrest style or just feel so confused and ashamed that i let him go

i also wonder if he is related to peepoop patel

recalls the classic dave chappelle bit about r. kelly

peepoop's brother peepee

harbl you should carry around a taser - when this happens, zap the stream

Or just carry around a little baggie full of water & one of those fish that swims up your urethra.

i feel like the chance of this happening to me is not low enough for comfort so maybe i should get a taser, yeah

if i get a urethra fish i'd be afraid of it getting loose

If public urination and defecation are illegal, does it follow that pissing and shitting your pants in public are also illegal or is the combination of exposure/littering the real offense?

As someone who used to have to walk through an alley beside a bus stop to reach our apt door, I will tell you that all you alley pee-ers are disgusting savages.

it's the "lady" that makes it

I was thinking about the stinky peeing horses while reading this thread and whaddayaknow I posted about it already.

Curious as to this "SF stinks of wee" thing. Never heard anyone say that before.

downtown seattle smells like wee

Our city stinks of wee
Sometimes, you gotta pee
Right in the street

the lack of safe and clean toilets in public places really annoys me. personally if i'm drinking i need to piss constantly, i try and avoid public urination but there's frequently no option.

I am pretty good about finding places to pee. mostly cuz I used to live like 45 minutes away from EVERYTHING so often got stuck on drives where the urge appeared midway through.

Classic.

i have pissed all over dear old glasgow town. i only know of one public toilet in the city centre. i live about twenty minutes walk from glasgow central and always walk home from the pub. thus public urination ensues.

apropos the lady poop post upthread i have espied a lady squatting down and pissing on the pavement with no attempt at being surreptitious.

the real reason public pissing is tantamount -- one time I had the urge and decided NOT to do so, and would wait until I got home.

I pissed myself right as I pulled into the driveway. I mean that's like...

...

well pissing yourself as you pull into the driveway.

Glasgow is definitely asking to be pissed upon freely and wildly. Esp after the inevitable occasion wherein you decide to nobly wait until you get on the train only to find out that they lock the toilet on the last few trains of the night.

you can urinate publicy if it's an emergency, but not defecate, according to my local bylaw

i've always found it easier to hold the number 2 unless it's an explosive emergency anyway. bladder muscles are less forgiving.
