    A truck has to have a nose that looks like a big slab of concrete to oncoming traffic. If it doesn’t men will be forced to wear dresses, sing show tunes while sitting to pee. Thems the rules.

      I sit to pee because I’m lazy. The dresses I wear while belting out ballads from Skykid shows are just to assert my dominance in the workplace.

          There’s less clean up if you have bad aim though.

            Clearly you’ve never had a half-asleep sit-down pee session where your little fireman played “find the crack” with your pee stream and the toilet seat. Nothing like sleepily pulling up your pants to find your underwear cold and wet.

                That’s what the shower is for.

                You mean you don’t bend your dick down as far as it will go before hurting, hunched over the toilet like you’re on fentanyl, and let er rip?

              Only a man could have known that such a thing is possible. I see you, brother.

              Sleep naked. Now instead of wet underwear for sleepy you to deal with, you have a puddle for awake you to deal with!

            If you clean your toilet less often than once a week, then yes.

            But I get your point.
