• The Golden Rule: mammals only take 21 seconds to urinate

[quote]Yang and her team discovered this commonality after observing male and female cows, dogs, elephants, goats, and rats at the Atlanta Zoo. They filmed these animals urinating, taking note of their size, bladder pressure, and urethra length, and then searched for videos of other peeing animals on YouTube. Based on mathematical models derived from these data, the scientists found that every animal took an average of 21 seconds to relieve itself, despite bladders that varied in volume from 100 milliliters to 100 liters. The video below offers a more visual explanation. [/quote] [url]http://www.theverge.com/2013/10/19/4855076/the-law-of-urination-mammals-take-21-seconds-to-pee[/url]
i once took a piss that was 2 minutes long when i was like 11 not even kidding i stinked out the whole house for a good hour or two but it felt amazing
I love long pisses, when I can feel my bladder go OH GOD YES Too bad they happen rarely.
If humans are mammals... And it takes me like, 2 minutes to take a piss... STUDY INVALID.

11 seconds? My experiences with going to the loo after going out drinking with mates SERIOUSLY begs to differ.
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;42575230]"Don't go in there, I just took a piss." wtf[/QUOTE] bart im piss
I'm pretty sure they're talking about mammals under normal conditions I think it's a given that intoxication/sickness are not normal conditions and your body is not functioning normally so gee I wonder why it could take you longer to piss when you're drunk or sick
Bladders that varied in volume from 100 mililiters to 100... [b]liters[/b] Holy shit that's piss capability. That has to be a typo

I must be way off the curve then cos I consider less than 40 seconds to be unsatisfactorily brief. [QUOTE=Psychokitten;42575627]Keep in mind humans have this really bizarre habit of holding it in.[/QUOTE] This pretty much explains everything
After I had a surgery the anesthetics refused to let me piss for like a day and a half. So what happened? My bladder distended so much that I couldn't piss. When they put me on a catheter I pissed out a whole 3 1/2 liters of piss and oh god was so satisfying. Took like ten minutes straight.
I once got really sick on a cold campout, woke up in the middle of the night, pissed for three minutes, then threw up and went back to bed. Study is invalid.

[QUOTE=Siduron;42575622]Who would even upload this kind of stuff?[/QUOTE] People interested in scientific advancement! ... Not really, probably the same kind of people who upload clips of cartoon women being shrunk.

Title's a bit misleading, the article's just talking about an average based on proportional scaling, it doesn't say you always piss for 21s.

Wow I was drinking orange crush as I was reading this thread and I'm kinda grossed out now.
bizarre thing to research
If I were to add up all my dog's various territory pisses, it would add up to like 5 minutes
Surprised no one has mentioned pissing in a sea of piss yet.
[QUOTE=The golden;42575652]Next time I have to go I'll just go all over the carpet or something. When someone asks what I'm doing I'll just cite this study and say I'm supposed to take 21 seconds.[/QUOTE] And then you'll both yell "science!" and high five.
my dad isn't a mammal? :(
[QUOTE=Raizo;42575258]Eat a bunch of asparagus, then you'll know. Like holy shit.[/QUOTE] Yeah, garlic does it too. We eat a lot of garlic, so I usually have the garlics. You know... Sweat smells like garlic, Piss smells like garlic, Shit smells like garlic, farts smell like garlic...

Garlic and Asparagus is the devil amongst households with multiple people. :v:
My friend's school has a urinal with a spinny propeller thing in it, and the longer you pee on it the higher your score is. I think he said the record is 30 something seconds :v:
