“others, when the bagpipe sings i’ the nose,  
Cannot contain their urine:  
for affection, Mistress of passion,  
sways it to the mood  
Of what it likes or loathes.”  
–The Merchant of Venice, Act 4, Scene i

For what it’s worth, I don’t have this problem.

I also don’t seem to be affected by running water (meaning it doesn’t make me more likely to pee) nor by bookstores (other than liking them in a general sense).

Yeah can we please solve the pee-shivers mystery. I’ve wondered about that one for a long time.
