I have been asked ever so gently and politely to provide something lighter on my blog. I have been told my topics, while informative, are about as light as a Vindaloo curry washed down with full fat chocolate milk. Yes, I realise my topics are heavy, and not light reading before one heads to bed, but that’s me. If you want fluffy blogs, go elsewhere. My initial blog outlined that very clearly. But, if its its something light and fluffy you want, let me endulge you with this little snippet of information I found swimming around the internet.

Gentlemen, remember those childhood days when we were in the toilet and we tried to see how high we could pee up the urinal? Or when we tried our best urinary calligraphy? Well, someone has finally come up with a game that satisfies the urge to do something while we are standing there emptying ourselves.

It’s a video game called ‘Place To Pee’, and is hooked up to a urinal in the toilet, and allows two players to play (I can see your eyebrow raising). The idea is to aim at sensors at either side of the urinal, and through using your urine as ammunition, you do all the sorts of things you would normally do in a video game:

“…blowing up aliens in outer space or skiing down a virtual slope.”

Don’t worry ladies, there is a specially designed cone for you to join in the fun too. Although girls have far less fun with their urine. They just do silly things like get rid of it. We guys have this weird obsession about doing something with it as we are disposing of it.

This crafty little bit of stupidity was designed by the Belgians. Yes, the people who make fabulous chocolate, now also make a game for the public loo. How wonderful. The best part is the reason they made it:

“This thing had to be invented by Belgian people and that’s what we are,” they said.

Yes, of course you did and of course you are. Funny thing is, when men really are a bit tanked, the game would seriously be hard to play. When men are drunk, they have a hard time just aiming it in a generally suitable direction, let alone having any thought about accuracy.

So there, I hope you enjoyed my slice of mindless news for the day. Don’t expect this little break from serious hard hitting opinion too often. Heaven forbid that you see me as an old softy.

Enjoy your day ;)
