Tied Down
Well there's some folks who badly need something to do. Pretty sure you figure this one out by the time you're what, six or seven, max.
Guess BYU wanted to up the game on stupid. Here I thought they were leaving it for Riddle students who come here asking inane questions in surveys.

I have a urinal at home.

I agree, getting up close is the best solution. I disagree that aiming into standing water at the bottom (if the urinal is of that type) is bad in all cases.
You see, however, until everyone gets up close and tries to not make a mess, each successive user is standing farther and farther back as the urinal gets nastier and nastier.
My home urinal - no problem. It's clean and stays clean. I have no issues with my trousers touching the sides of the urinal. The bar bathroom... not so much.
Side comments:
I have a customer in a building that is >100 years old. They have a bathroom off of a shop that has the biggest freaking urinal I have ever seen. It's one of those "to the floor" models, but this one is at least 5' tall and 3' wide. It looks like a freaking shower stall.
This, of course, is the coolest urinal installation ever:

I would like, for above my urinal, a composite shot of vintage risque airplane nose art. Anyone know where to find something like that? I keep thinking that I'll find it at OSH one year, but I never see a "composite", just individual pics.
Edit - here is the "training aid" for a clean bathroom

Yes, I do think about odd things.

That is really funny!
I wonder if laughing out loud makes it easier to pee, or more difficult.
Do you know where that restroom is?
I do not. My guess is "stage fright" would be more common if you were not expecting it"
I do recall a bar/nightclub that had one way mirrors above the urinals. As you stood there and did your business, you looked out on the crowd. The ladies, on their way to their bathroom, would file by this mirror. It was humorous to watch them checking themselves out and fixing hair and makeup as you stood there and took a leak. Some, however, must have had boyfriends that spilled the beans. Those gals would sometimes wave as they walked by, point and snicker, or cup their hands around their eyes up against the glass to see how much they could freak out the guys.
