Puff ‘n Pee
I’ve been travelling to Germany regularly for business over the last three years, and I have become really fond of the place. Quite social, with most populated areas having sidewalk cafes and bars giving it a coffee, bar & smokes culture.
My current visit to a different area of Germany has made me aware of how far the smoking is ingrained in the society. Cast you eyes on the pic below.
Yes, I did whip my camera out in a lavatory, and no, there was nobody else there. Aside from the urinal and the infrared flushing sensor, you will see an ashtray. Yep, an ashtray where you can tap off excess ash while relieving yourself…It’s not one of those that you can rest your smoke on either…
Now you can puff while you piddle, in case some of that precious tabbacco is needlessly lost to idle smouldering.
Now, I pee using two hands. There’s nothing quite like the V of an open zipper moving slightly and giving your scrotum a pinch. With the thumb of one hand hooked into the V to keep the nasty zip from creeping up to gobble your manhood, and the other hand performing the task of assisting with aim, your hands are pretty much busy. If I were smoking and peeing, that would mean the cigarette would have to be clamped between my choppers, smoke wafting up into my eyes causing me to squint. The alternative would be (if you were using two hands) that the hand keeping the zipper at bay would also be the one with the cigarette, bringing it into close proximity of splashing pee & microscopic spray particles that would ultimately soak into the cigarette paper. Also, shaking off too early may result in accidental contact of ember with member…..
I imagine that unless one wanted essence of pee-pee on their ciggy, they’d have to chomp down on that sucker from the first pull of the zip until the whole hand washing and drying sequence had been completed.
Just thought I’d share that.
