Do Vancouver Men Suck?

[Makarov]

I am leaving myself vulnerable to ridicule here, but I have to be brave and spread my gospel: I sit down to pee (only at home obviously), not because I'm forced to (this was entirely my own initiative), but because it is simply superior to standing to pee: (1) no splatter mess = way less cleaning of the bathroom; (2) no need to be constantly lowering and raising toilet seats; (3) excuse to take leisurely pee and even read a magazine article some times. The only drawback is that sometimes it turns into a poo at inopportune times (like commercial break during Flames game), but I think I can control that better with more practice.

1) I have impeccable aim. And, if by chance I do miss I have a wife or a sock to clean it up. OK I kid, I would never use a sock to clean up a mess.

2)I think it would actually take more time and energy to sit down each time rather than raising and lowering the lid.

3)I get in and get out. Efficiency is key. Sitting down can restrict the flow.

4)I stand because I am a goddamn man and it is an instinct not choice!

One thing I like about Vancouver is that they have far, far less jacked up pickup trucks covered with Tapout logos driven by morons.

I work down in Yaletown (if your down that way the building with the big white plastic cover is my new one) and I am sure glad I am married. I would not want to be single and looking in this market. I walk past those restaurants and bars and shake my head, some of those women look down right mean and willing to crush a poor mans soul with a flick of her hair.

I get the sense that the guys that are dressing down or playing video games have just given up the charade of trying to impress women. Shot down to many times without even getting a real chance.

If I'm ever single I am screwed. Not handsome, have a beer gut, drive a minivan, wear jeans 80% of the time as I find my suits don't go well with my Flames hat, I am never looking to impress and prefer substance over style. Poor me.

Yes, but on the other hand, while I'm not there often, I'd think there are more hybrids with peace sign logos driven by morons (that drive too slow to save fuel...and mother earth)

On the contrary, it's the thread that sucks, not the thread title. Who knew CPers would rather complain about women than Canucks fans?

You can't play death star if you're sitting down to pee

You may fire when ready.

You, sir, are definitely married. Hook, line and sinker!

Vancouver sure, but the Greater Vancouver Regional District is another story. Take a drive through Surrey/Langley and you'll find more than enough jacked trucks, and a lifetime supply of Tap Out.

Seeing as I'm moving to North Vancouver in a few weeks I'm not liking my chances after reading this thread. lol

When the Affliction/Ed Hardy craze was at its worst, The Greater Vancouver area was douch bag central.

I love it when feminists complain about men not opening doors for them. They deserve the Ellen, Oprah and Steven and Chris shows.

Don't be ashamed. You are in good company. A recent study showed a dramatic increase in German men peeing sitting down. And they almost conquered Europe....twice, you know.

So when you're at a friends home and your "impeccable" aim fails you, what do you do? Call your wife? Leave it for them to clean up?

I think it's insulting when I have to clean someone else's urine off my bathroom floor because they're too lazy or think it's not macho to sit down. To me it's about respect for other peoples homes.

Are you kidding? Thats the best part!

If you're at a friend's place, odds are you're drinking, so if (when) you miss you've got deniability and dont have to worry about it. Its not your problem.

And why are the Russians all advocating for sit-down peeing? Comrade and Makarov are the champions of this new cause?

Of course, you should always give the rim a little wipe after you're done.

I always do, no matter where I am.

Sometimes I'm even like a human toilet duck and up the pressure to clean dirty areas of the bowl. It's a great gift.

Who pees on the floor? Even when ridiculously hammered I steady myself on a wall. If urine gets on the seat, I have a system for that too. You hold about 5 picse of toilet paper by the end and stretch it out flat. You then use the cetnre of the toilet paper to clean the seat. It ensures that you always have 2 pieces of toilet paper between yourself and urine.

If I ever walked in on my buddy at my house sitting down to pee, trust me, he would never ever ever hear the end of it.

Also, who wants to sit down on your friends toilet seat. Who knows what he did with it before you sat there.

The reason for opening doors for woman has never been about chivalry or good manners, its all about checking out their a$$

Woman have a right to complain if they want too, but they're complaining for the wrong reason.
