Peeing for distance?

My cousin has prostate issues. He told me his doctor said, “if you can’t pee 4-feet, check in with a doctor “.

I tried it. In my backyard. Probably shouldnt have faced the school yard thru a chain link fence.

I’m good. 🙂

Four feet. I guess I could if I climbed a ladder.

Asking for a friend.

Is it 4 feet at the base of the triangle, or 4 feet along the curved hypotenuse?

I’m thinking it depends on whose 4 feet they are.

Context is everything.

Haha. The base. I asked my cousin the exact same thing. My pecker is very close to three feet up, so we know the hypotenuse!

Next question, do we have to start with a horizontal spray, or should we start at 45º above horizontal (to max distance). I'm assuming at 45º.

Yes. You can immediately see the results and adjust as needed. Drink lots of water first! Do this quickly, as urine pressure drops fairly quickly.

When I was kid I had a neighbor friend he and his sister were poor renters and yes a bad influence. We had peeing contests like 6 or 7 kids who could pee across the driveway. Yes in full view of neighbors and traffic. We had the best time when we found a refrigerator box and used it as a bicycle jump with kids inside. His mom was a roadie for ozzie and had all his albums and not afraid of blasting them with the biggest stereo iv ever seen. Riding around in her jeep was awesome because there was no floor in the back you could see the road and throw out whatever you could find. He had to move away aparantly there was a gas leak in their house.

I’m hoping this won’t turn into a pissing contest.

In a public restroom, once saw a kid, maybe about 7 or 8, standing about 4-5 feet back and shooting a laser-straight stream right into the urinal. Probably learned that he had to keep some distance to avoid the splashback

One of the funniest thing I ever witnessed in a public bathroom was at a buddy's dad's Elk Lodge. We went there to play cheap pinball and cheap sodas and free peanuts. Lots of old men drinking cheap booze and beer. I needed to use the facilities, and a row of men were standing shoulder to shoulder using the urinals. Some 6 or 7 year old boy came running in, with his um, equipment out, and he was dancing a jig with urgency. He let out a stream right across the back of a drunk that was leaning on the wall, using the urinal. He looked up for second, and went right back to standing there.

I just backed up, and tried to not burst out laughing. The kid ran to the first open urinal and I figured I could let him cut in line as I did not want to be behind him. The kid was done in no time and out the door before the old drunk finished.

Drinking several beers 6-8 in quick succession will help even more than a lot of water. Then if you really want an accurate measurement, use some paper that'll darken when wet, like old grocery bags, newspaper or packing paper.
