Men, is this unreasonable?

[JimNasium]

Yesterday I mentioned to Jenny that my dream home would have a man cave (my current home has one), a dedicated brewing room (nope, garage serves double duty), and a bathroom with one of those floor console urinals. Now young Jenny didn't balk at the man cave nor the dedicated brewing room but when I mentioned the floor console urinal she looked at me like I had been smoking crack. WTF? Is a urinal in the home a stupid idea? I think it is genious (CPS).

[Buck]

Definitely Reasonable.

[Nzoner]

[Hammock Parties]

I think urinals are a bit tawdry. I like the loo.

[Eleazar]

I know someone who installed a urinal in some guy's garage. That is awesome.

How come you want the floor one? Bad for your shoes.

[Discuss Thrower]

If there is at least one house in America fitted with a bidet, then a floor to wall urinal should never be out of the question.

[Fat Elvis]

A urinal is genious if you haven't yet learned how to piss in the pot.

Floor console urinals are classy. You can sit your beer on them while you water the lawn.

[milkman]

Not only is it reasonable, it would eliminate this problem.

[88TG88]

someone explain how a floor console works. i dont think ive ever used one

[Phobia]

I definitely want a urinal in our next house. I don't think it's unreasonable at all.

[Bugeater]

I'd like to have a floor drain right in front of my couch so I can just stand up and pee. **** walking all the way to the bathroom.

[ChiefsCountry]

How about a trough like at Arrowhead, or the hand washing stations at K that look like urnials.

[Simplex3]

I know a guy that worked the acquisition and installation of a urinal before he got married. It has been years and he still doesn't have it.

I still think it is a stroke of genius. I will certainly be installing one in my retirement home.

It looks like this and you put your piss in it.

I tell you what I'd like. A bidet.

[|Zach|]

Won't that make it hard to install the light up floor tiles?

Priorities.

Urinal, and a classy stainless steel pad [with radiant heat, natch] inlaid into the tile, right where you customarily put your hand when you lean for the power stream.

[Phobia]

I agree. Seriously.

[morphius]

The only issue I could see with it is that I would probably be the one who has to clean it.

Damn, I need to remember all of the accessories before I put this plan into action.

I went to an "open house" for sale a few years back, and they had a urinal in the bathroom.

It seems like a good idea, but I think there's a huge downside risk that needs to be taken into account. If only men use it, then only men will be expected to clean it. I'd rather be able to shrug and look surprised at any cleanliness complaints.

[JimNasium]

We aren't married. I think I can wear her down in the event that does occur in the future. It would take a different house.

I've seen them in a couple of houses...very cool...

Having morning wood and sleepy footing could spell disaster.

You should register at American Standard, and maybe we can all chip in on the urinal as a wedding gift.

[Hammock Parties]

Morning wood is the best argument I've heard for one of these.

[StcChief]

Friend had one in his Uni-sex pool house/bathroom.

Very nice addition especially for parties.

Urinals are respectable.

If she says "no" on the urinal, tell her you want to be released from all obligations to put the lid back down.

[Yellowbutter72]

Personally from the female aspect, I think a urinal is a great idea! I mean we would never have to put the seat down when we want to use the restroom!

[Jenny Gump]

I've been thinking long and hard about this and I suppose that if I can have my art hanging on the walls, my smelly candles all over the house, and my crap in 95% of the bathroom drawers....he can have his urinal. Small price to pay for sex whenever I want it.

[el borracho]

A couple of questions:

1. Why would you want one as opposed to just using the toilet?
2. Why does she object to your having one?
3. How do most people think a floor urinal would affect the resale of a house? Seems like it would be a negative. It would make me slightly hesitant to buy a house and, if I bought a house that had one in it, I would remove it as soon as possible.

Review: Book examines significant business blunders

Kimberly-Clark’s Cottonelle Fresh Rollwipes, debuted in 2001 as an alternative to dry toilet paper. Who knew that after $100 million in R&D costs and a $35 million advertising campaign featuring the tagline “wetter is better,” the product would languish for two years in test marketing and never take off as expected?

I think urinals are a bit tawdry. I like the loo.



Main Entry: 1taw£dry
Pronunciation: ‚t•-dr‡, ‚tä-
Function: adjective

cheap and gaudy in appearance or quality; also : ignoble
synonyms see gaudy
–taw£dri£ly \-dr„-l‡\ adverb
–taw£dri£ness \-dr‡-n„s\ noun

You think something that could be a SHOWPIECE for other males while bonding in your MAN CAVE drinking beer is Tawdry?

You are teh Gehy aren't you?

I find NOTHING wrong with having such a showpiece in my bathroom as long as it is KNOWN that it will be a relief area JUST for men and I would be the SCHLEP that cleaned it so there would be NO FURTHER DISCUSSION in my house.


I find this idea BRILLIANT!

I'm gonna bet my argument was the difference maker.

A man Bathroom without a TV is just a bathroom

[RNR]

A buddy of mine has a huge basement and converted it into a sports bar set up. He has six TVs one is a big screen, a full bar, keg beer the works. It is really cool you can watch every game just like a sports bar. His bathroom is set up with a floor urinal, the first time I saw it I laughed. I asked him why he put it in and he said it is easier to keep clean when us drunken ass holes show up for Sunday parties.

[jettio]

I think you subject yourself to the risk of litigation under a theory of premises liability for invitees.

Some meat-peeker will slip a cervical disc spinning their head around trying to size up the guy that would be next to him if it was not a solo urinal.

You are definitley going to have to post some disclaimers above the urinal, on the door to the bathroom, on the entry to the man cave, and on the front door.

You could probably get a good deal on those at a sign company. Let the old lady have some say in the disclaimer signs and she will come around.

[kepp]

A console, huh? It's not unreasonable at all. In fact, I'd say go all out and get the optional navigation/DVD system.

If you have to ask these questions you are most likely in need of an intervention. I suggest eating 1 pound of red meat cooked over hot coals and served rare. After that drink at least a 12 pack of cheap beer. Finally, avoid showering for at least 24 hours then smell your armpits and scratch your privates and bum liberally. That might cure what ails you.

The brewing room will happen. All I need is a place with a John Deere room or a workshop and I'm set. A floor drain would be nice but isn't totally necessary.

[BucEyedPea]

Get the floor drain and it can work as a urinal too. :p

Floor-drain or funnel fitted with a garden hose run out the window..good for the lawn....

[Iowanian]

You might want to reach down and touch that fleshy patch where your testicles used to be.

You're the man here aren't you? Tell her if you don't get a urinal, you'll just pee in her shower.

I also don't think its normal that she craps in most of your drawers either. don't even allow DEAD flowers in your man cave.

This is a slippery slope on which you're standing.

If Jim gives in on this, especially if he hasn't bought the cow.....he might as well sit to pee anyway.

Just as a point of clarification she is not living under my roof. We just spend most of our free time together. I do allow her to take shelter in my man cave and I will admit that she assisted with decorating it.

If she is assisting with decor then a Christening should be part of the deal!
