Is it just me, or are the posts in the basketball thread about players testing the draft getting kind of detached from reason?

My son only plays Smash Bros. Part of a group at college (and some people who come in from off campus) that plays every Tuesday. Went to Goodwill and bought a CRT television, because response times are faster. They all have them.

I played these.

Someday I will be able to share all the potential issues with my exit property with my agent, who is also one of my closest friends.

Someday. But for now, he is still an advocate for the process and he doesn't need to know how the sausage was made...

That's when you figure the decision to drink has been made and if the result doesn't scare him away, it is time to have a the "how to not be the fucking idiot who can't handle their drink" talk.

I received that at a young (relatively) age from my much older brother. It was basically a "if you want my friends buying for you and being chill around you and inviting you to drink when you are tagging along, you best not play the fool." I was 15, my brother was 28. So kinda a 2nd dad.

Why do older men need to spend 10 minutes washing up and grooming after pissing in a public restroom? I swear I always run into an old dude basically taking a bath in the public bathroom sink...wtf.

I've never understood the practice by any man of any age. Even college students do it constantly. They don't necessarily piss first, either. They come, set down all their encumbrances, and spend 10 minutes over the sink thoroughly luxuriating all over themselves.

I want to get out of public restrooms as quickly as possible, but I'm often slowed down by somebody who makes the sink the central vessel of his daily ablutions.

I don't go to a public gym any more, but the lack of discretion by men in locker rooms of public gyms always weirds me out. You don't need to walk around buck naked, but a lot of people do for no apparent reason.

At the risk of being ageist, I also found that it was most prevalently an issue with older guys. There were old guys that would stand there naked and use the hair dryer to dry the sack/taint interchange. I wouldn't do that at home, alone.

"Older" men only do that when they perceive that the younger guy is a good prospect to give them a bj....

I just walked into my bathroom at work and saw a guy pulling up his pants from his knees at a urinal and now I'm questioning everything.

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Tue Jun 27, 2017 12:03 pm

Was it this guy?

scumdevils86 · Post by **scumdevils86** » Tue Jun 27, 2017 12:10 pm

maybe he lost a lot of weight recently and they slipped down to his knees while he was finishing up?

Longhorned · Post by **Longhorned** » Tue Jun 27, 2017 12:29 pm

Related question: At the urinal, do you just unzip and pull your wiener out through your fly? Or do you unbuckle, unbutton, splay your pants out, and pull your wiener up over your underwear's elastic strap?

I'm guessing it's 50/50, and the guy with his pants beneath his knees belongs to the second category.

If I have a fly, out through the fly. It's the same basic reason you don't need power tools to open a jar of pickles.

But what if you're wearing jeans with a button-up fly? With eyes watering, do you patiently unbutton from the top of the fly? Or do you just unbuckle and rip it all open from the waist button down in a fraction of a second? For this, I believe, is the origin of the habit described in our second scenario above.

I lack proper flow at my age, so have to go over, not through. Path of least resistance so to speak.

On the obverse side, what the heck do younger men do in stalls while taking a dump?

Pretty much every day, when I take my morning dump, I am the last one in there and the first one out.

My only guess is playing games on their smartphone. I don't even bring my phone in with me. Just do my business and leave.

I've evolved beyond the button up fly. I honestly have never owned a pair of button up fly pants.

I'm a two dump a day type of guy.

In 630 am after the morning workout and coffee.
Between 2-3 pm to get me over the hump and into the last 1.5hr of work.

Sucks for the wife; she's trained for like 3am.

I have IBS. I'd kill for only 2 dumps a day and a relatively settled stomach.

That's how much dignity I have left.

In terms of random thoughts, some people get all weird about discussing boweling. I've never seen the point of that. Yeah, you don't need to offer it unsolicited, but if the conversation goes there, it's as close to a universal topic as you can get.
