How Long Does It Take For Pelicans To Pee
 

Okay, let's do some science!

Very simple: report how long it takes you to pee AND your age. If we get enough data points, we'll see if there is any correlation.

Methodology: time from the moment you, err, point the nozzle and open the valve, to the moment that you are done and, umm, ready to re-sheath the nozzle. I dunno how you'd going to hold the stopwatch and everything else. That's really your problem.

If you are a girl, please note it. The dataset will be analyzed both with and without your data, because the presence of the superior sex could throw off the experiment.

My peter works great........whip it out it starts, I'm 59.

22 seconds is the average for all mammals to pee regardless of size.

John, I think you need to define a standard pee event, such as "how long does it take for a Pelican to pee, xx minutes after consuming xx beers within an xx minute window of time." Might need to control temperature and humidity, too.

How many minutes of "shake time" is allowed before you're considered to be just playin' with it :)

Do we count the time it takes to fill the hose?

That adds significant time for some of us...

So I go to take a leak, don't have a watch so I'm counting seconds....

One missapissi,
Two missapissi,
Three missapissi...

Totally lost concentration, count, and just made a mess around my toilet....I'm out...

My guess is that the PPOT community would fare to the right of mean in relation to the pee time bell curve.

Perhaps we should refer to median or modal pee time?

(This being said by a person named "LEAKYSEALS"):D

does blood count too or is that a separate time?

how about asparagus? other than the obvious effect, does it lengthen or shorten the time? It's in season now so a good time to see.

In the privacy of your own loo, that's one thing. At a trough shoulder to shoulder with a redneck in a wife-beater, the valve often will take control and prevent progress. If you're talking stream time only, ok. But zip to zip? Whole different matter.

Maybe ten seconds, but also in the middle of the night. Really ticks the wifey off if I don't turn on the bathroom light to aim.

2 seconds. to start. 61.
15 seconds duration. beer free.

I thought we were going for distance. Now we're going for time too? Gawdemmit, competitive bunch here.

I'm 64 with a neurogenic bladder. If I pee at all . . . it's in Morse Code.

...---...?

Depends? ;)

Seems if I wait too long it takes longer to get going.

i have a large P-hole. it just goes..and goes fast.

Who says you make it to the loo?

2-3 seconds. 52. Don't drink.

How's that?

few minutes...

This is not a good survey. You need to have the same starting condition. Don't go pee until you can't hold it anymore - then compare times. It undoubtedly depends on the fill.

Generally it is 20 seconds. At a party where plenty of beer was consumed this same question came up and guys were timing themselves. It was probably 20-25 second range, if I recall correctly.

I suggest you have a beer party and invite us. Maybe some proper timers too! :)

How are you guys getting 2 seconds?

The measurement is from when you start to pee until you are done peeing.

If you only take 2 seconds, you are a human pressure washer.

Please re-measure and re-post!

He is trying to say there is a large pipe. I think my response must have been the only one with data you can trust!

Long enough to touch the ground.

No, he's saying he has an aging prostate. 2 seconds....20 times a day.

That's an exaggeration, I hope!

One time in May of last year it took me two days to pee and only got relief coz they put a catheter in me. Had a turp operation(ream out the prostate) and now it only takes a few seconds. :):)

Never actually timed the actual flow from the nozzle but I do know it takes longer to unreel the hose.

The process can be quite dramatic, depending on the pressure.

Depends on whether or not I am writing in cursive...

Entirely too long & about every hour.

And what about accuracy? Are we being graded on accuracy? Lights on or off?

This would make a beautiful poll.

Or pole.

takes my ultra hard-core mtn bike buddy about 30 seconds to get any action.
should be worrisome. no?

Identical for me. 60 in August.

Standard pee.

Just out of bed and going to return, I just sit down.

Way less drama.
