WHEN URINALS TURN AGAINST URINATORS...
SCREEN GRAB FROM A COMMODORE 64 GAME DEMO
Meet the urinals of R-Place.
This Capitol Hill bar is where I spend most of my time on those
uncommon occasions when I actually *do* venture out of the house.
Powerchairs and wall-mounted pisscans don't mix. They obviously tried to glue the piece back on, with limited success.
These pissers are in the Baltic Room, a Seattle nightclub I occasionally venture into.
I wonder why so many places install different styles of urinal side-by-side like this.
This is the men's can at the Manray, a gay bar near Seattle's Capitol Hill.
I used to do LED lighting installations there, but I don't anymore.
There are small video monitors above each urinator, but they seem to have been
all slashed up and only glow white, displaying diagnonal knife marks on their bezels.

From a sign posted on the wall of the men's room:
"Use the urinator instead of the toilet to pass water"
I guess this means they want you to pee all over the guy standing at the urinal next to yours, or the fixture sprays your pee back on you, thus truly making it a 'urinator' :-O
Seattle, WA.
An angry patron kicked the urinal off the wall at a local nightclub, smashing it on the floor and kicking the pieces under a toilet.
Customers were forced to urinate into a small segment of black plastic waste pipe that protruded from the wall; all that
remained of the urinal was its flush valve.
The remains of the urinal were later found scattered all over Crawford Place approximately 1 block away; no piece of the urinal was larger than
a "D" cell battery at that point.

For women fed up with long lines for the ladies' restroom, a Dutch company says it has come up with the answer -- the world's
first female urinal.
Bathroom equipment maker Sphinx said Tuesday it was introducing the "Lady P" -- a unit made up of a ceramic pot, a frosted
partition wall, space for a toilet paper dispenser and disposal unit as well as storage for handbags and jackets.
Seattle, WA.
Hazardous materials units were dispatched to a
downtown office building after a plumber who came to replumb a broken
urinal knocked the valve off of an ammonia tank. No injuries were reported.
Bellmawr, NJ.
A 42-year old man was taken to the emergency room after
a wall-mounted urinator came off the wall and smashed both of his feet.
The man, who refused comment, is listed in fair condition today.
Seattle, WA.
A man who was caught stealing urinal mints and placing them in his gym bag has been ordered to purchase a full case of
the offending items, and carry them everywhere he goes for six months.
The sentencing judge, who wishes to remain anonymous, said "forcing the offender to openly carry the stinky urinal deodorizer cakes
all over the city might teach him a lesson".
It is not known whether or not the urinal bandit actually learned any kind of lesson from this experience - or whether he had to carry the entire case
or just stuff a few dozen of them in his garments.
Off the net...
I found this funny not because of the joke itself, but because of the misspelling of the word "urinal".
"al Gore was at the White House talking to Bill Clinton about the future election when he asked to go to the bathroom.
Bill Clinto politly pointed it out.
When Al got there he noticed there was a GOLD urenal. That night he was talking to his wife while they were getting ready for bed, he said, "I cant wait to become president, the white house has a gold urenal" the next day Tipper Gore and Hilary Clinton were eating lunch together and Tipper said " my husbands really exited about the Gold urenal in the white house". That night while Hilary and Bill were getting ready for bed, Hilary said to Bill " I know who peed in your saxaphone" "
This pisser was in the old R-Place in Seattle. It is probably in a landfill now. This is the only known photograph of this urinator (and it WAS a 'urinator' too, as it spashed
pee all over when flushed!)

Newly-installed urinals inside a not-yet-open baseball park.
Nobody's even pissed in these things yet.

What's wrong with this picture?

The bartender was very angry at this, because he said "it was the good one too". :(
