Far as what they do in Asia...If I ever find myself traveling through Asia an see folks doing that in the street, I'll kindly mind my own business an move on. Not my country, not my ways. Here in the U.S. I use a bathroom. Or at lest find a way to not make it obvious, vs just whipping my #### out in a truck stop parking lot.
If I recall back in the day they would do as was pointed out in Asia. Doing their business in the open. There is a reason your told to pee down stream.
Dysentery is no fun. Not to mention has killed many folks over the ages. Pretty sure up there in the great north aka Canada, they would frown upon people just popping a squat an doing their business for all to see. An if not...you Canadians are weirder then I thought.
TLR - You wanna do your bathroom stuff out in public, then be ready to handle the consquences of your actions. Whether it's a fine, ticket, punch in the nose, insults, mocking, etc etc. I don't live in Asia, I live in the US. We use bathrooms. Well most of us...
Sirscrapntruckalot - Peeing off your balcony is delightful. I just wish my neighbors in the apartment below would be more understanding. - anonymousBrickwall Thanks this. -
I've seen adults and children pee in potted plants in restaurants and stores in Beijing. One place they were peeing in an indoor fish pond in the lobby of a restaurant.
KB3MMX and austinmike Thank this. -
I am a fairly new (under 2 years), female trucker. I spent the first few months angry whenever I saw "no trucks," or "no truckers" signs anywhere. I was thinking "What are we hurting just parking here?! We have to park SOMEWHERE!" But it didn't take long for me to realize the why. Truckers are gross. They have no respect for other people's properties.
I have driven solo, and in a team, but mostly in a team. I have a small toilet in the back, and my teammate (male) uses empty bottles (his choice not to use the toilet - he prefers the bottles). But! I have forbid him from ever throwing them into the garbage cans, and make him take them inside the bathroom to dump out the contents in the toilet, the same way I do mine. Then he rinses them out, and then he tosses them. It's illegal otherwise, and it's also disgusting.
If we all treated other people's properties the way we would want people to treat ours, I think there would be a lot fewer places off-limits, which we would all benefit from... especially now with all the stricter regs in place. -
I don't hesitate to pull over on the ramp and take a squirt after 10pm and before 6am. I always go to the right side of the truck, out of the view of traffic. After the sun comes up, I look for a restroom.
A few weeks ago, my wife and kids were driving home from her brothers place in a snowstorm. We got on top of a mountain and saw a car sitting on the road with his flashers on. So, I slow down and nearly stopped to see if they needed help. Turns out the driver of the car had to take a squirt. He was standing in someone's front lawn, in full view of the house. While his car sat in the middle of the road.
So it ain't just truck drivers who are pigsKB3MMX, Brickwall and Sirscrapntruckalot Thank this. -
That drivers sister is probably his mother too along with his uncle which is his brother.
Probably has a couple farm animals bound an gagged in the sleeper.Midnightrider909 and Sirscrapntruckalot Thank this. -
I don't know about you guys, but I go outside to pee when I'm at home at night.
Call it marking.. or leaving my scent.. whatever.
I'm a man, and this is my house.
I'll pee on my Azaleas with the dog if I want to.
I'll scan for neighbors, first, though.Rubber duck kw, Brickwall and austinmike Thank this. -
OK in my book, I'm a redneck hillbilly, but the parking lot - off the top step, is not the same.
-
Hopefully not rinsing them out on the bathroom sink?
speedyk, swervyjoe, Hammer166 and 1 other person Thank this. -
How is it any different for a guy to be peeing in public than for a woman to breastfeed her kid right in front of my family, while eating dinner at an Olive Garden?KB3MMX Thanks this.
