Mark my words, in 100 years we’ll look back at urinals like we look back at communal toilets in Rome where you shared a shit covered sponge to wash your ass. Why use a urinal when you can just use the toilet? Do you like having other people’s pee splatter all over you? It’s a barbaric practice. I will make sure urinals are abolished once i am made the general secretary of the central committee of the communist party of the fucking world republic

    Serious answer:

    • They use a shit ton less water.
    • Vandal-proof urinals are a lot cheaper than vandal-proof toilets.
    • They use less space.
    • Men are a lot quicker in and out than when using toilets. They don’t dally or sit scrolling on their phones, blocking others.
    • Less chance of drug use.
    • When smoking was still popular, playing “scoot the cigarette butt” was a decent multi-player game.

    If anyone is interested, there’s a lot of, ahem, “time and motion” studies on public conveniences out there.
