It began a few years ago. I've always been a light sleeper, and turning on the light, even more a moment, seriously disrupts my sleep. This problem seems to be getting worse with age. I could literally wake up at 2am and not fall back asleep for the entire night. I really tried to pee standing up with the light off, like use passive sonar and aim via sound. I tried keeping the stream where the sound is splashy, but my hit rate was 50%, which is clearly unacceptable. So one night I'm like fuck it I'm gonna pee like my gf, and I never went back.
It evolved to just laziness. Aiming takes concentration, sitting is peaceful. And no matter how much I try, when doing a standing pee, there is often a spot or two I need to wipe up later. Or even worse, I don't notice the spot until the next day ๐ญ.
I might continue to pee standing up, as normal, when in public toilets, as I can't trust strangers to not get the seat dirty.
Pic unrelated. I don't know what the Germans are doing.
larry david taught me to sitpiss at night with an episode of curb. iirc his father in law puts the seat up and larry doesnt notice at night and falls in. idk why in his massive house he and his father and law were sharing a bathroom now that i think about it. anyway its a good idea
