Oh shit op be careful maybe the fbi tryna set you up. Kinda like a trap
Oh man, I hope you had hearing protection…
Oh mate, this is my favourite comment. It’s about 32 hours later and my right ear is still ringing. Full on white noise. There was a point near the end of the concert where the band asked the crowd to scream as loud as they could. Fuck me, did they oblige. It was piercing.
I’m at another music venue tonight, a fraction of the size. I’m basically deaf. Last night was inescapable high pitched sound. Tonight is calming whale song in comparison.
For future bouts of tinnitus put you palm over you ears with your ears facing behind you, cross your first two fingers of each hand, and flick the back of your head behind your ears couple times. It doesn’t fix it but does give relief when the ringing gets intense.
The high frequencies are the first to go.
What?
I can’t hear over 13.5khz anymore… supposedly happens with aging too. To be fair 13khz is a really annoying noise.
There is a scene in a TV show called Person of Interest where an AI communicates with a younger character in a high frequency tone older characters around her can’t hear. When I first watched it, I heard it. Now I don’t.
Isn’t anything in the upper range of what you are able to hear annoying? I.e. when you age 12.5 kHz will be annoying as fuck.
I once accompanied a teenager to one of those horse-girl movies. The auditorium was completely full, and apart from two young women who seemed to be doing it ironically, I was the only adult in the theater. During the interval, I noticed how other adults handled it: They accompany the children to the movie theater and then have two hours to enjoy a few drinks.
I always see the movie with the kids, no matter how juvenile. That way I’m more aware of what they’re watching, and we can make inside jokes. Plus I didn’t think I’d like Teen Titans Go until I saw the movie.
Both the Teen Titans Go show and movie are gold. I hope you’ve seen the “night begins to shine” episodes
It’s on our car ride playlist.
This is my sentiment too. I have 2 years left until all my kids are adults. I fucking cherish this bullshit.
So that’s why there is bar seating at Flicks Brewhouse. I could just have a 2nd pint rather than buy another movie ticket
Not relly an issue for you in this bathroom based on this pic, butt I absolutely fuckin’ hate urinals without a divider. I went to go take leak, not go to an impromtu sausage party for fucks sake. Gimme some god damn privacy!
Who shares my sentiment?
Just look ahead and do your thing, then get outta there.
I have crippling stage fright even with a generous divider. It would be literally impossible for me to pee in this place.
Who are you performing for?
Just get a couple of fog machines to throw up a barrier (and perhaps a few laser projectors for fun).
Yeah when it gets super crowded I get stage fright as well.
This way when I walk in I can find an open urinal between two people, pull my pants down to my ankles, put my arms around each of them and piss without touching my dick at all.
Lol!
Hell when I was young you didn’t even get urinals, it was just a trough.
Hell, in a lot of places they still have troughs.
Wrigley Park where the Chicago Cubs play still has troughs.
Lived in Australia for a couple years and those were super common in all sorts of public bathrooms. (schools, bars, libraries, clubs)
Basically just a wall covered in stainless steel, with a slope to a drain in the corner.
There’s a gallery/cafe In Louisville that has a one way mirror wall you pee against with a trough and water running down it.
Outside the bathroom is the mirror side where my SO was adjusting her hair while waiting for me to pee.
It was a little weird.
If I was looking for a more awkward bathroom experience than using a trough, this would be on the list.
Saw a girl at big day out get sick of the lineup for the women’s toilets, so she lined up at the men’s urinals, had better aim than half the blokes there and got a round of applause when she finished.
Wait until you see the urinal in a rural fest made of just a 10m long pipe cut in half. Cheap and highly effective. Bonus point when they have a tablet at eye level to put your drink.
Our bathrooms were like this at my shitty old American Catholic school.
.
They still have those in the Chinese school I was teaching in. Spotless, modern, but a trough. A really humbling experience, even after years of nightclub toilets in Ireland.
Oh damn that’s rough.
As a tall man the dividers are too low, I don’t care if someone sees my dick, but I don’t want to make eye contact.
They should just put the dividers up between our heads, like horse blinders.
Then stop facing sideways, ya weirdo.
Yeah there really is an etiquette, no eye contact being part of it.
Look at my dick if you want idc lol
Lol nice cock bro.
Lol.
Our stadiums still have the piss troughs.
About 3/4 of the game when everyone’s feeling twisted all the dicks are coming out together
Sounds awkward.
I don’t care about dividers but I do hate when it’s just once long trough that everybody uses. I’m so glad they stopped using them.
Last time I went to a concert at an arena (over 10 years ago at this point), I held my piss far too long to avoid the lines/trough… I finally gave in mid-set, and there was still a line. Finally got to the trough, and I dunno if it was because I held it for so long or because I was surrounded by drunk men with their dongs out, but I suddenly had shy bladder syndrome for the first time in my life… Stood their with my dick in my hand for what felt like 10 mins (probably more like 1), but nothing. I had to wait for a stall to open up and then still had like a 30 sec wait before I could actually start pissing. It was awful.
Fuck piss troughs. We should’ve left that shit behind like 300 years ago.
Not to brag but I’ve never had an issue pissing in a trough, I don’t care about anyone else’s dick and they don’t care about mine
I don’t care about anyone else’s dick and they don’t care about mine
Neither do I. It’s got nothing to do with dick size.
In this case I think it was mostly just because I held it in for way too long. It was like my pelvic floor muscles were just refusing to let go. It was just exacerbated by the rotating cast of men pissing next to me.
Troughs enable pooh stick races with cigarette butts.
Trough definately sounds worse.
I don’t mind, when I go to such a place I’ve got my own business to do and let others do theirs. It’s a simple natural thing I don’t think about much.
Same. If someone wants to see my dick, whatever; have fun.
I just don’t look at other guys dicks cause I don’t want to see theirs. Bathrooms aren’t sexy, people taking a piss aren’t sexy.
Fair enough.
When you’re the only two guys at such an event you stand next to each other and go “nice dick bro”. That’s just common courtesy.
Lol!
Totally agree, this was my thought too! Literally doesn’t take any extra space, just put dividers between the urinals…
Yeah super minor improvement that makes a big difference.
I won’t use a urinal unless it’s an emergency and no other options are available. They’re uncomfortable.
I remember some bar I was at once only had urinals, and I was like “what do you do if you gotta shit??”. Apparently the bathroom on the bottom floor had full stalls, but still. Yuck.
I’m betting someone shit in a urinal there at some point lol.
Went to see a musical recently, and I spent nearly all of the intermission trying to force my bladder to get a move on, because the dividers were so damn small and scores of men lined my peripheral vision. If I walked into this bathroom, I’d leave and hold it.
Life’s too short to suffer a full bladder.
Sometimes our brains don’t cooperate. Especially if we’ve already been holding it for a long time (at least in my experience)
Let them see it. Hell, let them hold it. I don’t care anymore. I’m not keeping a full bladder.
And aim for the deepest water, too. Let them hear it.
Oh yeah when it’ super crowdedeis the worst!
I agree. I never use urinals for this reason, I will always go into a stall. Fuck urinals dude
Yeah gotta have some privacy.
I guess when I gotta go I gotta go. Usually don’t spend long enough thinking about it because I will pee my self if I do.
That’s understandable.
I don’t get what’s up with this picture. It looks like a normal bathroom to me. Honestly, it’s surprisingly clean for a concert venue bathroom, if there’s something that seems out of the ordinary here.
That’s the point… There are barely any men at the specific concert.
Yeah took me a sec but then it clicked, glad I’m not alone (well, I guess I would be alone in that bathroom).
Ha thanks. And I was there thinking that demographic was (urinal) white boys
Here I thought the demographic was well behaved guys…
white urinals with black base
My bf and I went to see Dethklok and DragonForce. We both went to the restroom at the same time.
I walked right the women’s room, went and then joked around with the other women about how we walked right in I left the restroom pushed my way through crowds, saw my partner was still standing in line, went to the bar, got drinks, then hung out until he was done.
IT WAS SO WEIRD AND AWESOME.
Also the concert was awesome.
Fuck, I want to see dethklok!!
They had an amazing looking tour with baby metal a couple years ago I wish I could’ve gone to
It was last year! I found out they were playing in my area … the day after they played. I haven’t been to a concert in 18 years but I would have gone to that one.
Saw them here and it was amazing.
I remember seeing dragonforce in this small venue quite some time ago, we didn’t really get bands like that where I lived. It was pretty cool as we had a smoke with the drummer during the intermission out front. I only really knew one of their songs as I was a massive guitar hero fan but it was totally worth it just for that.
Wait until you take in a metal show with a band that has a big following of women.
There’s going to be lines at both, but there’s also going to be a line of women in the men’s room waiting for stalls.
That’s the big benefit of urinals; you can cram more of them into the same space. Ngl, if I was a woman and going to shows, I’d carry one of those “porta jane” funnels and use the damn urinals instead of waiting for my bladder to pop
Was it ghost or sleep token, girls be loving those bands
Unbelievable guess! It wasn’t, but she is also the world’s biggest Ghost fan. She went to watch them a week or so ago and cried with happiness throughout.
Sleep token is touring soon if you want another band to take her to, tickets are kinda hard to get though (rabid fans + scalpers)
That’s a very off-putting mural for a restroom.
Why does the wall in the bathroom say “it wasn’t me”?
Picture this; we were both butt naked, bangin on the bathroom floor…
Shaggy was in attendance
Don’t ask me. I didn’t write it. Wasn’t me.
Wow, that’s even worse than when I went with my wife to a Bon Jovi concert!
The day I lost my wife, to Bon Jovi
yea, that sucks. you ain’t got a prayer.
Tbh, she gives love a bad name.
Well she keeps dreaming of running away
and when she cries in the night, he whispers
“Baby, it’s okay, someday”
As in its empty cause most of the bands fans are women?
Yes
Empty and pretty clean…
Damn now I want to go see this band so I can pee in peaceful solitude!
…Where do you normally pee that’s, if not peaceful, at least alone?!
At home, in solitude (but no live music), and also at work (no solitude or live music).
Next to a street musician (no solitudine but with live music)

See that’s a generational divide. Millenial women would have already co-optes that bathroom.
Well I hope they don’t mind potentially seeing a dudes standing against the wall with their dicks out!
