Standing up...... like I should.

So some americans might know that it's expected that everyone(guys included) sit down to take a leak when here in Germany, or Europe in general. There are often little signgs that say "urinate sitting down" or something like that. I don't like it, though i respect the rules when visiting others.
I remember in highschool when we Happy Campers were talking about building a cabin and that it definately had to have urinal in the place. Just a guy kinda thing.
Then during a trip to Hamburg we stayed with family of a friend and i saw this in the bathroom. They had a urinal!!!!!! I mean. I don't think i'd even seen one in a private home. we're talking about a little bathroom, but they had it there. oh......... and a heated floor. yeah. it was deluxe.
So of course i had to get my camera and take pictures of this monumental event. Just thought i'd pass on the joy.

he jared, ich hab bisher nur einmal ein urinal in einem privat-wc gesehen: der vater von meinem zivikollegen hat sich selber eins eingebaut, weil seine frau zu oft wegen den putzarbeiten gemeckert hatte...
