Overheard and conversations at pubs and bars

Post by ThePTNN202 »

Was at a pub the other night. Great big stainless steel wall trough. Went for a piss I'd been saving to hose it with.
Just as I was finishing up, 2 dudes enter, step up, unzip, and release.
Accompanied by the rumbling sounds of 2 torrents blasting the stainless steel, one says "Ohhh, it's so good to finally have a piss", the other kind of sighs in agreement, then they continue to banter about other matters.

Intentional or not, men just being men, or the effects of alcohol, for whatever reason. It's apparent he's probably been holding in, is enjoying release, and by announcing his satisfaction in company, assumed at least indifferent about that, at best proud of it.
While this was just the other night, I've overheard a lot of similar pre, mid, or post, big-possibly-deliberately-held-in-beer-piss statements and conversations, and even engaged in some. Pubs and bars produce the best ones. It tells me there's a general enjoyment found in pissing, and maybe even holding, even outside the specific interests of these boards.

Anyone else have any great overheard piss or holding conversations from pub or bar facilities? or even engaged in similar exchanges?
Starting as a new topic to share.
I'll try and share more in time.

Of course the final validation was the 3 great big wet marks left left on the stainless steel evidencing the capacity we had all been at 8-)
And I do hope finally having his piss did feel good for him ;)

When in a group drinking beer, nobody want to be the first one to leave for a piss, and some like to be the last one. Beer-drinking is a "manly" pursuit, and being able to hold your piss can be a point of pride. Many years ago I attended a party being somewhat dehydrated, and it was only after several beers and several hours that I finally got up to use the toilet. Our host had noticed and remarked, "You must be a F**king camel or something. Everybody else has pissed two or three times." It was entirely due to my dehydration. Trust me on that!

Seconding Fred's post, the social mood at a bar often involves engrossing, fast-paced conversations, which makes it inconvenient to interrupt the flow of the evening just so you can relieve your bladder. Add to that your common man's preferred choice of libations, beer (doubly diuretic due to the hops as well as the alcohol), and it's a perfect setup for a nice, long piss break. Men can be naturally competitive, so there may be a reflex of showmanship in the idle boast ("man, I needed that") of how long a man can hold it before yielding to the pressure.

By the way, I think this is part of the design genius of the trough urinal at drinking establishments (dedicated to drinking or otherwise) as well. We have anatomy that encourages pointing and shooting, target practice and tracing out aimless figures with our recycled beer. Better to give the menfolk a nice big blank canvas to urinate on, than have to clean in and around so many individual porcelain fixtures ;)

Absolutely.
At one place I used to frequent there were 2 mates that I'm sure took great pride in holding their piss. We'd recognise and acknowledge each other in passing, but weren't friends otherwise. I'm sure there was an unspoken holding competition to not break the seal. How it played out was dependent I guess on how long they stayed, and how drunk they got.
One was a shorter, rounder bloke, who I think was the real 'camel' of the 2. In one instance eventually leaving having not yet broken his seal, walked off towards home down the alley opposite. Walking the same way a few minutes later I found a fence along that alley absolutely soaked in fresh beer-piss. To this day it's one of the the most impressive ones I've encountered. It was a massive mark and puddle. There was a picket missing and he'd also pissed through that gap and onto the wall of the vacant property on the other side of the fence, so must have had a good deal of pressure enabling him to shoot his stream that far 8-) So, some effort must have been involved in holding that in. Presumably it also felt really good finally being released. I'd also encountered the same bloke at the urinal, I guess when the competition ended before leaving. He'd exclaim "It's all good don't mind me" or similar while unashamedly spraying all over the stainless steel. The competition was not even entirely unspoken, In one instance when a 3rd mate was present I overheard him jokingly exclaim "you should be holding on" as the 3rd excused himself to use the facilities.
The other was a really tall bloke. Also in one instance eventually leaving having not yet broken his seal either. A few minutes later following I encountered him spraying a torrent up a tree trunk just outside the car park exit. He just said "sorry mate" and unashamedly continued about his business. This pub also had a second set of facilities that were easy to sneak off too without it being obvious, it might look like you simply went to the bar buy another round. I also encountered the tall bloke at the urinal there in one instance, with a cheeky grin he put a finger up as if to kind of said 'I'm cheating, don't tell'.
Either I was just safe company, they didn't really care when drunk, or they'd clocked my own big pees and so I was even safer company.
Ah, with hindsight, could have been a good game to join. Would have been proud to win ;)

I've heard this a lot actually, like when the last from a group of mates finally breaks the seal and then the others start talking "he's a f****** camel" or something. I've even heard it proudly stated "I can hold it like a camel" mates to mates.
Yeah, and pub camels are cool 8-)
Probably my favourite kind of scenarios, as it is somewhat deliberate and intentional, and just 'a "manly" pursuit'.

Yes, blokes strutting up to the stainless steel proudly exclaiming "I've been holding this in for X hours" or "This is gonna be a good piss" 8-) 8-)
And this is not at all uncommon, particularly at the pub.
Showman myself, at that point I've probably sprayed something I held in for X hours all over it too ;)
I think being in similar company, seeing another bloke did or doing similar, can encourage further showmanship and competition, and interesting conversation. I'm all for it ;)
Washing my hands at the pub once, great big fresh wet mark left all over the stainless steel behind me, a bloke steps up and proceeds to swing side to side spraying all over it, while talking about how "the first piss is always the best one" and "you don't wanna break the seal too early" and "if you save it up it's almost as good as s*x". In the mirror I was treated to a great back view clear of this bloke's powerful clear stream moving side to side all along the stainless steel, splattering and running down it, and a great conversation. Look, might have been a bit drunk too, but I suspect seeing what I had just done encouraged the encounter further. There's a mutual understanding, I obviously just had a good piss, so he need not be ashamed that he's here for the same, it encourages him to compete and show off that he can hose it just as well or better, and proudly boast how long he's been holding it and how good it feels.

Yes, and being in Australia, these are often great big wall units which absolutely appeal to a primordial instinct to mark our territory. It invites usage in the same way we might like to use the wall or fence along the alley to paint something or write our name. Only it's dedicated to serving that purpose, no caution required ;)

Yes, also 8-)
Pub holds and pisses often appear kind of deliberate and intentional.
For many it's probably just subliminal, simply a primordial instinct that manifests as pissing, maybe after a hold, just feeling good generally, and the alcohol just makes it more fun.
For some here this kink goes further. That's OK.
But at this level it's not so much about that. It's just about enjoyment of simply being a man, and engaging in male activities. And the great male to male conversations and mutual understandings that go with it.

In a nightclub a few years back having a few drinks after a party, there was a young lady who’d fallen over near the door and had to be scooped up by an ambulance and taken away (she looked fine, just a bit too much to drink).

Anyway, while that was happening (say 15 minutes), the bouncers had stood round the scene to give them a bit of space, which meant no one could get to the toilets. But they soon got her cleared away and outside.

I needed a piss so went straight through, of course there was a bit of a queue (say 10 guys). There were two young guys behind me, both really needed a piss and we’re discussing it. One was saying something like “Jesus I need a leak bad.” and the other was was saying “Fuck I know.”

One of them asked what had happened to a friend who was nowhere to be seen, wondering where he’d got to and why he wasn’t in the queue. And the other one said “Oh him and Nick needed a piss so bad they went out to the smoking area and pissed down the first escape!”

Much laughing and piss taking about him having a small bladder etc.

Eventually got to the front, which took ages as everyone was quite full, the two lads pissed and there was a bit of banter about cock size🤣

Nice one ;)
Again, at a pub last night. Group of 4. Big bloke. Announces at one point to the other 3 "Jeez I'm busting for a piss", but continues to finish current round before making a move. Love the brazenness 8-) Initially couldn't find the facilities, walked aimlessly in a few directions, eventually asked, and was pointed in the direction.
Anyway, hope he enjoyed ;)
