Is urinating in public ever acceptable?

Getting "caught short" in the countryside is one thing, necking 20 pints of lager then redistributing it on war memorials and historical buildings is another.

In city centres at weekends, where hundreds of "bladdered" ejected clubbers relieve themselves in the street simultaneously, there's a definite hygiene problem.

So it's a :nono: from me.

I do it quite a lot tbh

If you've got to go, you've got to go. Maybe not on memorials and such though

Might have a slash all over this thread tbh

i always do on a night out

Y'all are classy.

I don't think it's right just pissing out in the open whenever the need calls like some drunks do on monuments and benches and stuff. But at least trying to be discreet, in some bushes or whatever I think is fine. If you have to go, you have to go.

It's never acceptable. a 200 pound fine seems appropriate to me.

It's acceptable as long as its out of view imo

Don't see the problem if it's out of sight. When landscape gardening, you don't really have a choice.

I only ever do it in an alley or a bush.

I do it in places cut off from the main part where everyone is. If I need to pee I will pee.

I have a terrible bladder, I need to pee a lot and if I can't immediately get to a toilet I have to go in public. I've peed on the four main streets in my home town :laugh:

I've no problem with it so long as you're not pissing on someone (unless they have some sort of fetish), their property or memorials etc.

If you have to go, at least be discreet about it. Sometimes you see people hosing down the streets and waving it about like it's something to be proud of. Don't particularly want to see girls crouched in the gutter with their knickers round their ankles either. There's normally an alley way or a large tree to hide behind.

Boris should be building less bikestands and more publicpottys

Meh done it a few times, always somewhere private-ish though..like I wouldnt do it in the middle of a crowded street or anything :laugh:

I remember I once had to stop my taxi halfway home and get him to wait while I went into a random field for a pee...then promptly fell over on the way back to the car and he made me sit on a plastic sheet all the way home because I was covered in mud :joker:

I can technically pee anywhere I want now anyway, at any time of day. I can even ask for a policemans hat to pee in if I chose to :pipe:

Obviously not on memorials etc. but if I need to go say on a long journey in a car I will. I'm not going to risk getting a bladder infection because I was being 'considerate' to the natural landscape and all that rubbish. Animals do it.

Those urinals in the streets they have in some cities are genius, should get more of those

There is a famous colonial American flag that has the picture of a snake and the words "don't piss on me"

(i might have got the phrasing wrong)

The ones that pop up from nowhere?

Years ago there was one in durham (dunno if its still there now) and it started going up while my mate was walking over the top of it :D

I think it is disgusting. Walking down to McDonalds down the usual back-alley route, and someone is stood there with their doodahs out urinating. It put me of my McDonalds anyway lol

you should sue.

Still disgusting

In most circumstances, no. If you're desperate, piss behind a bush, really. I don't really want to see someone's dick churning out water when I'm walking down the road with a fag in my mouth.

Would you be alright with it if you didn't have a fag in your mouth?

speak for yourself

:joker:

Yeah, bad "habits" like that are usually a result of poor parental upbringing, a poor education, too much alcohol or just sheer laziness ..... :hmph:

The culprits should be put in the stocks for a week and left to stew in their own "juices" ..... :evilgrin:

Gives the stray cats something to drink.

It's quite disgusting.

do bears sh*t in the woods

Alleys/Corners/Forests are 110% fine.

When there's a hosepipe ban, a gardeners gotta do what a gardeners gotta do.





:D


No. It's a vile thing to do unless you're in the middle of the woods or something similar and there are no toilets for miles and miles.

:joker:
No, it would be worse. Fags calm me down, see.

Spunky

Is urinating in public ever acceptable?

No - Not if it effects a nearby house

:laugh2:

Urgh! no way ever its uncivilised and unsanitary in the city centre. However if I were travelling and it was a desolate countryside road and I was miles and miles from a loo I might.
