Well, shake it up, baby, now, (shake it up, baby) Twist and shout. (twist and shout) Cmon cmon, cmon, cmon, baby, now, (come on baby) Come on and work it on out. (work it on out) ---

Shake and then blot if needed. All the blustering that “men don’t wipe” is ridiculous. ---

I just chuck one of those dessicant gel-packs in my shorts. ---

Remember, if you shake it more than twice, you’re playing with it. ---

Shake the snake! I’ve had periodic issues with leftovers all of my life. The dreaded “Embarrassing Pee Stain!” When done, hesitate. Shake thoroughly (not too much). Deep breath. Shoulder roll. Relax. Try one more time. Shake again for effect. Feels good. Return the carriage. And you’re… Oh shit. ---

If I’m just peeing I shake. But if I’m also sitting down taking a dump, before I wipe my ass I give a quick blot up front. There’s always a drop. When my father had to be excused to pee, he always said, “I’ll be back in two shakes.” ---

Shake it out of course. Sure you still get a little dribble, but it’s sterile, and 99% water anyway; who cares? ---

> [@Chessic\_Sense](#): > > Wipe? After peeing? Are you kidding me? You do realize there’s no toilet paper next to urinals, right? Besides the urinal overflows if you put toilet paper in it. I don’t think men would use a hot air drier either. ---

One Pakistani restaurant I visit has a roll of toilet paper and a small wastebasket next to each urinal. It also has a prayer room in the back for the convenience of the mainly Muslim cab driver clientele. Is this just a quirk of this particular restaurant, or is it related to Muslim ablutions? ---
