New Urinal-Based Video Game Makes a Splash

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the hope-you-don't-have-a-shy-bladder dept.

Those who enjoy drinking beer, playing video games, and (oddly enough) peeing in urinals may be able to reach true nirvana after all. "Place to Pee" is a new video game that relies on a player's ability to hit sensors in a urinal to control game play. While this may seem extremely male-centric, don't worry, ladies, the game designers have thought of you too, and have designed a specialized paper cone for participation. Man, it's a bad day to be a janitor.

      I've alway felt sorry for women....never knowing the pleasure of writing their names in the snow...

      I'd for years thought to try to come up with some form fitting funnel with a hose attached to it they could use.

      I mean...you're driving downt he road, and in the snow on the side of the road you read...Bill....Fred...Chuck.....LINDA??

      I had a girlfriend for a couple years who was quite adept at peeing standing up. She'd just spread her lips with two fingers and kinda arch her hips forward. She could even manage a fair bit of accuracy and distance. Although she would only try it while wearing a dress because of the dribble problem.

      As for the funnel/hose idea, well, it's been around for a while. I think they called it "Le funnel" or something.

    Inquiring minds want to know -- has "I.P. Freely" made it onto the High Scores list yet?

    And, will there be a port for the Nintendo Wii? I bet it would make a big splash in the market.

      I'm sure you've got more in you than that! Let loose!

      What kind of yellow journalism would cover this so piss poorly? Slip-shod! The whole site is going in the tank. Was the product officially issued, or was it a leak? I predict the Number One sales spot in a quarter, but then the market will take a dump. I have an urge to splurge on one of these, myself, though this product's really only for the ones who wear the pants in their families. Will the seniors buy this? Depends. Does it run Linux? Where's the torrent for this? Can't have your urinal cake and eat it too. There is some bad news about the working conditions at the factory. Underpaid workers and dehydrated testing staff were chanting from the picket lines: "Hell No! We Won't Go!"

      What was that?! Get your mind out of the gutter!

    We need stupid things like this to happen once in a while. We need to be reminded of the outer limits of fucktardom so that we know where not to stray. Someone is going to try to buy this and get it installed, thinking it's neat, and we all get to stop and say "You, sir, are a fucktard, do you honestly think I need to be entertained for the 20 seconds it takes for me to pee? You just got robbed." And the maker of this will be laughing to the bank until the fucktards are properly put in their place and stop buying stupid shit like this... and then society moves on.

    If the frat dudes adopt this as a new stupid jocular competition (which I'm certain will be the case) then the pub owners now have a totally weird new driver for beer sales.
