It seems no matter how much I shake it, wave it, tug it, squeeze it, spin it, smack it, hammer it, drive it, hit it, or speak nicely to it, whenever I put it back, there’s always on last drop of urine to get on my boxers. Guys, has anyone figured out a way to get passed this damn blasted last drop getting on your boxers after taking a piss? ---
