97 seconds straight this morning when I got up at 630. I knew today would be a red letter day but I had no idea it would be this good. Plus new family guy starts up tomorrow with a new simpsons, so life is not too bad right now. Too bad its also finals week this week.

Next time might I suggest peeing into a 2 litre bottle while you time it? Then you can measure the total pee volume with some measuring cups and find out your output per second.

You are \*such \* a guy. I’m bewildered and read this out to DeHusband, whose response was “Wow!”

It’s true. Boys _are_ weird.

97 seconds, eh?
I bet I can beat that.
It will, however, take much beer-drinking tonight. Someone call me in the morning to make sure I’m alive, and cancel my one o’clock.

Oh, man, now I can just see guy Dopers lining up to take this challenge… 😃
Was it anything like in the first Austin Powers movie?

I thought it was the time over vertical distance that counted, not just time alone.

It’s always satisfying to reach a new personal goal. Ummm… do you always time yourself when you pee?

Mine’s 2 minutes 15 seconds. Curiously enough also close to my record for breath-holding.

It just means your penis is really small and it can’t get out.
Just kidding, but that is darned impressive. I am going to start timing myself now.

Was this _totally_ continuous, or are you counting the final squirts as you milk your bladder for those last few drops? Have you ever pissed at a urinal and squirted so high you’ve pissed out the window above? Now _that_ gives a feeling of accomplishment.

I beat you guys so far: 2 minutes, 21 seconds.
It was after trying to watch Star Wars, episode one, at the theatre. I had one of those bladder buster drinks. I held on as long as I could, but then about 20 minutes before the end of the movie, I had to go. Out of sheer curiosity, I set the timer on my watch and timed it when I sat down.
2 minutes, 21 seconds. Beat _that_.
And I’m a girl. Sure, I’m weird. But I beat you all! Mwahahaha!

Yeah, but how _high_ did you go? That’s the real test.

My friend Scott the fat pink Irishman, can empty a full bladder in about 6 seconds.
(very slight exageration)
The volume is there, it’s just a spectacle to hear this huge WHHOOOSH-ing sound when he lets go.
And yes, it’s a guy thing, just like finding urinals in a bar filled with ice. Men, rejoice in our pee-games, let not the scoffing women scoff.

Can i just get a sense of the rules here?
I assume that the time is for a standard, relaxed type of urination, without straining to get it out quickly, or holding back to let it out slowly.
Is that how you judge it?

Sound-engineer guy: “Now boys, just talk normally, but don’t make any hard P’s.”
Stan: “What’s a hard P?”
Cartman: “It’s like first thing in the morning, when it just won’t come out.”
