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.

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...

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")

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.

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.
