Urinal Dividers: A Good Idea
Now many of you already know, especially since this was covered in a previous article by one of my fellow interns here at mancouch.com, that there is a certain code to using the urinal in the men's bathroom. You may also know because you are a man who is not agoraphobic, or because it tends to be common knowledge.
But for the uninitiated, when a man enters a public bathroom needing to relieve himself in a urinary fashion and happens upon the row of urinals, man code states that you must take up every other urinal and only once every other is already taken may you take a urinal directly next to another man.
This is a good and fair system to which there is one exception: urinal dividers. When there are urinal dividers, all bets are off. Even if there are 15+ urinals and only one man peeing, you can take the one right next to him (although, I wouldn't suggest it as that would be quite awkward).
My question is, why aren't there urinal dividers in every public bathroom? We've progressed beyond a non urinal divider world! We have the technology to make everyone's lives just a bit more comfy and we completely ignore it.
Men, level with me. Don't you get a little tingly in your peen when you see a bathroom has urinal dividers? C'mon be honest. Nothing to be ashamed of. It's exciting.
Why wouldn't every business put them up?
It's not like they can be that expensive. Look at them, they're just one thick piece of plastic. And they wouldn't be hard to put up. Hell, I'd go to every single business in the tri-state area and put them up myself if they wanted me to. So why aren't they up everywhere?
It's like we've invented something that clearly makes something else better and we've collectively gone, "eh, I'm not too sure." Once someone starts making real robots, like the type that can gain sentience, start a revolution and overthrow the bonds of their human oppressors, there's no going back to a non-robot world.
So why are we denying the natural progress of things?
Men, don't you love the urinal divider? Wouldn't you like to see them everywhere?

I do. I love them. It's hard to talk about it, because I've never been good at expressing my emotion. I usually just want to bottle it up inside, but not this time. Urinal dividers, you make my life worth living. I love you more than any motion-activated hand dryer could even imagine. Thank you for being you.
Yes, dividers are quite nice. They give that sense of privacy. I wish all bathrooms had a minimum of 3 urinals like the one above so if 2 guys were in the bathroom at the same time, they wouldn't be forced to stand next to each other. I also like the bathrooms that have things to read at eye level.
hahahahahahahahahahaha
urynal dividerz ar boring
Hell yea. The only time I ever need to use a bathroom there is only one left so I'm stuck in between two people...
Or even better is when there is only one to begin with and its taken. You have to hold it or watch the guy and wait for him to finish. I guess dividers wouldn't help in that situation...I think I'll just give up on public bathrooms in general.
I've said it before, I'll say it again, "I think urinal dividers should be required by law." haha.
but also, I don't think all bets are off when there are dividers, I still think you should stick to the every other rule no matter what.
They make necessary business outside of the house slightly less inconvenient, but you're making a mountain out of a molehill.
I wouldn't like it if I was aguy.
And a tranny was starring over me
While I'm drunk.
So I wouldn't know.
I definitely prefer bathrooms that have urinal dividers. Most of the time I won't even use the urinals if they don't have dividers. No, I'll take up a stall before I use an un-isolated urinal.
@Cameronie@xanga - 100% agree. Every other urinal rule still applies.
I dream about urinal dividers. =P
does there really need to be urinal dividers like come on are are we that insecure if there was just a big hole u gathered around id pee in it stil
agreed. and another thing about urinals. i love how we have such advanced technology but whoever it is that designs these damn urinals can't figure out how to design one such that we wont piss on the floor. really, is it that hard to have one of thos urinals that actually extend down to the floor? (i rarely see those, but when i do, my wee-wee does tingle with joy...and my shoes are happy too)
yes please.
@thecommonfate@xanga - ROFL!!!
Seems like a good idea for you fellows.
hahahaha they should be everywhere.
lol divider not bad but loves more the fact that one... very few posting females and two lol why are any posting?
I am honestly wondering what the original purpose of that urinal robot is, and if I can get someone one of them as a gag gift.
Seriously!!... Is it too much effort for the owner of a venue to go to Home Depot and buy a painted board and some brackets?
HAHAHA. Yeah. I may be a chick, but I am with you for many reasons.
Probably because my gay best friend who is a guy hates urinal dividers. (:
Enough said.
Urinal dividers should be MANDATORY. Lack of urinal dividers should be PUNISHABLE BY DEATH.
