Ok, minor exaggeration but you said “I see plenty men doing it”.

Why do people seem to have a problem with a bloke nipping into the bushes to relieve themselves when we've got thousands of dogs pishing all over the place?
A few years ago in Aberdeen my mate got an on the spot fine for having a pee 'in the street'. He was desperate, it was 2am and he nipped down a side street, into an unlocked goods yard and took a slash down a drain. Mid stream 3 Police officers jumped on him and issued him with the fine. They must have followed him down there. Now he broke the law but it seems a bit of a waste of Police time given he took reasonable grounds to get out of view and to avoid 'contaminating' the area.
At the same time Aberdeen city Council had a scheme where they had open, uncovered urinals set up on Union Street on weekend evenings for men to pee in. So had we been 20 minutes closer to town my mate could have had a pee in full view of hundreds of people contributing to the resulting stench that anyone who has used high volume use portable toilets will be aware off and been fine but peeing in a drain in a relatively secluded area saw him fined £80.
Dogs, cats & horses can relieve themselves without fines (unless the owner is with the dog).
I think humans are being victimised. Young policemen's prostrates are obviously still in good order.
Once I hit my mid-twenties I found that after two pints I was at the toilet on a half-hourly basis.
Twenty years on, I tend to drink wine rather than beer but it’s still the same, make sure I go before I leave the pub for example, because if I don’t I’ll be needing to go within fifteen minutes.
I drive a lot with work, usually two or three-hour journeys and I won’t even bother with a coffee for the car unless I’ve got the pit stops carefully planned :greengrin
Pro cycling's the spectator sport for you, Mrs S:
Peeing on the bike can have other benefits, especially if temperatures dip in the mountains or the windswept French countryside. "In races that are soaking wet and freezing cold, I like to piss myself," Cavendish says. "It warms me up for a split second. You get warm and you don’t have to fuss around."
Folk clearing their path / driveway when it’s still belting down with snow.
It'll compact itself under its own weight, trust me, I fell for this back in 2010 and when it came to the point of clearing I was lifting sheets of ice 6 inches thick.
I'm clearing the snow once a day, akin to painting the Forth bridge but it's easy enough to stay on top of it.
People who sit in their car in the snow, Rev the arse out it, spin the wheels, car doesn’t move. Oh, I know, I’ll keep revving and revving, and spinning the wheels, it’s bound to work eventually, the 45 minutes I’ve been here doing it and getting nowhere at all don’t count. idiots :rolleyes:
Peeing outside is legal if you're a diabetic!
Not sure why either either popped into my head, but the original stories to, not going to the MK Dons game and a Jambo crying on a balcony in Bulgaria, both passed me by.
What was the origins of them?
The MK Dons stuff arose when AFC Wimbledon were first due to play MK Dons at MK Dons. AFC fans were boycotting it in protest at the fact the club had relocated and rebadged itself from the original 'Wimbledon'. That led to the thread about not going, not organising a bus, not watching the highlights etc etc.
The Bulgarian balcony tears were I think a straight lift from a post on Keechback. Not sure if it was a genuine HOMFC fan or one of us. Their site was absolutely riddled with us at one point, posting all sorts of silliness.
