As a clean-and-sober 34 years recovering alcoholic, I call this "the drunkard's tripod"...feet wide apart, head against the wall, and peeing in an altered state as long as you can hold that position and the world turns around you. Done that back in the day, from the US to Mexico to the Panama Canal Zone.
Oh, yeah. Bachelor party before my wedding, held at a dive outside an Air Force base 50 years ago. Went to sleep standing at the urinal. They said I was gone so long they sent somebody to look for me and found me standing there passed out, leaning against the concrete blocks. Pads would have been nice.
At many times in my life, this would've be a great bathroom. Head pads to keep yours from floppin' around. A vertical hand rail, disguised as a water pipe... Damn!
Looks like somebody dropped a deuce in there, and did not even do the paperwork. Many such cases. SAD!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking it was a glove.
Delete"Man I'm sooooooo fucked up. Don't puke - don't puke."
ReplyDeleteWent to Munich once for beerfest. In the heads they had regular pissers, toilets, and special barf sinks with hand grips on either side.
ReplyDeleteIt's early. Can I be forgiven for not understanding?
ReplyDeletePads for the drunks to lay their heads against when they piss. You've never been that fucked up before?

The vertical handrail is a nice touch.
ReplyDeleteYes it is. Or would be. But that's the pipe going down to the flush.

It's probably got just enough strength that you'll trust it to hold you - until it doesn't.
DeleteOne more reason to thank God for allowing me to quit drinking alcohol 15 years ago.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! 15 years is a long time for a drunk not to drink. Keep it up one day at a time! Lots of Bill's friends everywhere.
