What Tansu said.
Whilst I don’t piss in a sink when there’s a toilet available, I don’t see why people get so upset about this. After all, it washes off.
That said, i wouldn’t like the thought of using a sink for any purpose after total strangers had pissed in it.

Been there, done that. Whoever decided that it would be better for dorm rooms to have a sink was a genius.
Only bad thing was that it was next to the door, and both my rooomie and I were on occasion shouldered out of the way by the other one. That could be messy…but we worked it out.
Actually, I think that it was the ONLY use that we put the sink too…we used the bathroom down the hall to brush teeth and such.
Here here! As I recall, there’s one Cambridge college, I think its Emmanuel, where if you’re in a rather unlucky staircase, you have to walk across the main court for a shower. :eek:
I was always very lucky in that the bathroom was always very close to my room.
I’ll admit that in a drunken state, I have done this with the sink in the basement. The only bathroom is on the second floor, and we don’t use that sink for anything else.
When I was in college, two of my friends had a sink that was used only for urination(we’re talking about a bathroom type sink in a dorm room, where the actual bathroom is down the hall). The only other thing I can remember that sink being used for was vomiting. By the time they moved out, that sink was completely black and had a smell similar to an open landfill. it was pretty disgusting.
I pee in the sink every single time I urinate when I’m at home, and I’ve been doing it this way for years. And here I thought I was the only one who did this!
I’ve never lived in any dorm, but I managed to make this discovery serendipitously. One night when I was inebriated, for some reason I just decided to pee in the sink. When I awoke the next morning, I got to thinking about it and thought I’d try it out again. It went so well I decided I’d never do it the old way again.
I only pee in my bathroom sink, but I would never pee in the kitchen sink, so the idea that I could somehow be ingesting it is ludicrous.
There are countless advantages to peeing in the sink-
There is much less splatter / splashback.
You can urinate with an erection without having to try to bend your penis, or risk missing the target.
Cleanup is as easy- you just run the water for a couple of seconds and you’re done.
The sink is the perfect elevation for most men- even better than a urinal.
You waste much less water than you would if you used the toilet and flushed.
You can urinate without using your hands, so you could, for instance, brush your teeth at the same time.
No one will even notice if you don’t ‘flush’.
Given all of the aforementioned reasons, I tend to think that you would have to have some sort of a ‘mental problem’ if you’re a guy and you DON’T pee in the sink.
Yeah, Surreal said it. I do it, too. Almost exclusively. It’s easy to rinse out a sink, whereas it’s a pain in the ass to clean the entire toilet.
Yes. I did it! And I’m glad too! Ahahahahahah!
In college. 
A few years back I was hitting the bottle pretty hard and I used to go outside and pee off the porch instead of having to go all the way upstairs. I even did it when it was cold out. When you pee on cold ground, steam comes off it.
That’s kind of disgusting, now that I think back on it. haha.
I find it surprising that so many guys have supposedly done this. I’ve never witnessed it myself, nor has anyone I’ve known ever admitted to doing it (granted, we don’t usually discuss our bathroom habits in the first place). I’ve never tried peeing in a sink myself since I’m not quite tall enough to do it, given the height of most sinks. I’d have to stand at a distance and arc the flow, which is something I’m not about to try.
I used to live in a room with a door right into the backyard. The bathroom was upstairs. So needless to say when I had to pee at night I just went out the door and squatted.
The whole point of peeing outdoors is to minimize effort, and since getting dressed (I sleep naked) is too much effort for three in the morning, I’m sure I gave my neighbours a few late-night showings.
I used to work somewhere where one of the bartenders was fired for peeing in the bar sink. The one behind the bar. The bar where customers sit. Yes, he would pee in the sink while he was tending bar.
Anyway, the union got him reinstated since the establishment’s union contract did not specifically prohibit peeing in the sinks; therefore, he should not have been fired for a first offense. Or so went their logic.
*Yes pissin’ in the wind, bettin’ on a losing friend
Makin’ the same mistakes, we swear we’ll never make again
And we’re pissin’ in the wind, and it’s blowing on all our friends
We’re gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren
That the answer my friend is just pissin’ in the wind
Oh the answer is pissin’ in the sink*

I’ve both pissed an masturbated into a wide assotment of sinks. Variety is the spice of life!
Ironically, I’ve only pissed in a sink when I was in Cambridge (long story). So maybe it is a Cambridge thing.
Hey, as George Castanza said to Elaine, “It’s all pipes!.”
I envision all these male Dopers going home tonight to go try out their sinks…be a bit more difficult for female Dopers, I’d think! :eek:
I remember hearing a story about my ex-boyfriend pissing in a friend’s sink one night. The same ex pissed whenever he had to go, wherever he felt like it: in my yard, his yard, random yards, etc. One of our friends almost died of embarrassment while riding shotgun when the ex stopped at a stop sign and hopped out to go take a leak.
TMI.
I’ve never peed in the sink, but my father’s mother did it all the time. (I don’t associate with this side of the family.)
Apparently it was too much effort for her to walk up or down stairs to use a toilet so she used to kick every one out of the kitchen/dining area. She had a cup right beside the sink that she would pee into and then pour the urine down the sink. The cup would return to its spot beside the sink.
I must admit to once urinating in a sink, this was at a skanky hotel with one disgusting toilet on each floor for the guests. It was by far the most hygenic thing to do, and I did wash the sink down with plenty of soapy water afterwards.
At least…for this thread.
