    Why the flip would I want to????
    You are obviously not a good Muslim who is cleaning himself before one of his many daily prayer rituals. The worst is where you get people from places like India come in and they squat over the bowl rather than sitting down. That and a combination of "Delhi Belly" leaves a god awful mess......

      I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.

          In some Amsterdam bogs they have marijuana and lubricants.

                True. Dutch bog manufacturers employ PhD level mathematicians from the Technical Universities of Delft and Twente to precisely calculate the optimum impact point of a stream of pee against the ceramic bowl to avoid the terrors of splashback, and then a small fly is placed at the ideal spot. I think it’s actually a British idea, but considering the many different urinal designs and modern materials this no splashback point must be calculated for each new bog design. I bet some programmer could make a fortune if he wrote an application that automatically places the fly as the graphic designer designs the shape. Maybe someone already has done though. Testing would be interesting.

                      I imagine best would be to target almost tangent to the surface, after which the stream could be decelerated progressively. Quite unlike British ones that are flat and guarantee big puddles on the floor every time and where the patrons probably use a sink that might have been designed for the job of decelerating wee.
