Sorry, but no, I havn't yet managed to hit the front of the bowl with shit. Could it be common in your country to shit into the urinal? Or are you from one of those backward countries that hasn't raised their men properly, thus they piss standing? Spreading backsplash all over the bathroom? Backsplash mixed with shit? Piss and shit mixed backsplash on the floor, the seat, the toiletroll and possibly even the sink? Is that what you are saying?

I was surprised to learn recently that in Germany sitting while peeing is considered the proper way for men, since I lived there from '83 to '94 and never heard about it. Being American, I usually stand like a savage. Is this something that became more common after I left, or did I somehow miss it for 11 years?

Thank you for confirming my predjudices about the lack of manners in the USA. This gives support to my firm conviction of never letting an American use my bathroom.

I've heard it beeing done in dirty public stalls, but only if there are no urinals. In my youth (10+years ago) this was a topic of discussion in my group of friends and it was consence that you do not do this in anyones bathroom you respect.

You should know that in most of the cultures in the world, men prefer to stand and pee. So you can hate Americans all you want, just don't think that that's in any way unique to them. While we're on the topic of other cultures being perceived as rude, I always hated how in Germany it's not considered impolite to stare. It's super rude to me.

I too prefer the comfort of a propper piss; to have the time, solitude and comfort needed to relieve oneself in peace, but alas, sometimes dire need drives us to do, what we couldn't even imagine in the nightmares...

They're referring to when you trying to remove a stain from a previous poo

They know. They're being intentionally obtuse.

[–] pitiable_sandwich540@feddit.org 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What? No, I wouldn't dream of ever doing that. I clearly have no idea of what the OP meant, and am not in fact mocking that as uncivilised. Why would I do this? To point out this is but one step removed from sink pissing? I would never...

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 2 points 2 days ago

There's really nothing wrong with sink pissing if you run the water and clean the sink on a regular basis. It's just a hole that water goes down.

You mean someone who shat like this (without trousers ofc)?
