    Imagine the cacophony of urinary verbiage from a wall full of discordantly operating and probably watery messages. Pity the poor dude who thought that a hallucinogens might be a good chaser with his booze.

    @federica -- I assume that taking a piss activates the benevolent lecture.

    well, if a talking urinal doesn't make a man lay off the booze, then nothing will...

    "'....onesht hunny... I pisshed on it - and it shpoke to me...*hic!*"

    @federica ... LOL

    It says it's activated by movement, so prehaps a judicious aim might avoid the lecture.

    yes, but your trouser legs would be a mess.....

    And when the battery slowly runs out of power the talking gets softer and softer.
    But you can’t resist this; you just have to know what this thing is saying.
    So what do you do?

    please... i think I really don't want to know what men get up to in urinals... especially when blind drunk and they believe they're hearing voices.....

    It does interest me that Michigan didn't think to extend this kindness to women.

    Oh, the inequality of it all!!! :)

    It doesn't even need alcohol to become twisted. Years ago I had a job in an engineering company where the staff, spent much of there time playing pranks on each other. The urinal was a ceiling to floor tiled wall that had a steady stream of water pouring down its face. My main nemesis was parked in front of this wall, legs a splay with both hands dealing with the task at hand. A small tap from behind caused his unbalancing so that he had to use his head to keep the rest of himself off that drenching wall for the duration of his business as his hands were otherwise occupied.

    This was a supreme violation of the unspoken sanctity of mens urinal etiquette and resulted in me never again being able to feel safe when it was my turn to face the wall.

    I think you'll find we spill less, because we sit down....

    They've already tried tackling urinal boredom.

    Myself, I don't see good reasons for the existence of urinals whatsoever. :scratch:

    Trust me - if they weren't there you'd get it.
    London is awash with drunken messages, left there during the night by guys who could do with one....
    It stinks, it's filthy and combined with digestive offerings from the other end, it really can ruin your walk to work....
