Default Splatter

Most men don't realize how they **** all over the floor, all over the

and clean their own bathrooms.
Besides sitting down, is there a way to reduce/stop splatter?




(apologies in advance to readers with delicate sensitivities...)

Does the phrase 'skin it and wring it' ring a bell? With a nym like
yours, you must have gone through short-arm inspection at some point.
The end getting gummed up causes most of the oopsies- a nice round hole
makes a cleaner stream.

Oh, and turning the light on helps, even if it makes it harder to get
back to sleep.

If you are really curious, find a real library and read Alexander Kira's
definitive work, 'The Bathroom', that actually studied such things. He
worked for Calspan when he wrote the first edition, but I think he did
the revised versions on his own. (It realy freaked out my 8th grade
English teacher, when I did a diorama of an outhouse beside some trees
as my 'multi-media' book report on it, with a couple 3x5 cards of text
attached to it. Hey, this was pre-computer era. Got an A on it, though.)
