LIKE A GEEZER (NOT A GEYSER)
'Suki', the editor said to me, 'this sea sponge article is fantastic.
People love it. I've had loads of letters about it. I'm promoting you.
Your job title is now: Chief Investigative Journalist from the Fringes
of Girl Culture.'
'Er, thanks. That's nice.'
'Yeah. So, now I want you to learn to pee standing up.'
'Well, I already do that. You know when you're somehwere dodgy, and there's,
like, weird hairs on the loo-seat, and drips and stuff. Did you know that
there's like a million diseases you--'
'Suki. I'm not talking about hovering.'
'You're not?'
'I'm talking about peeing standing up. Facing forwards. Like a geezer.'
'L-like... a geezer?'
'Yeah. And don't come back until you can.'

STAND BY YOUR
MAN
An article in the sadly departed Nova magazine debated the merits of hovering
vs. plonking, following a Mori poll which found that 48% of women never
sit on a seat in a public toilet, whether it looks clean or not. But both
hovering and plonking have their drawbacks.
Hovering means that the bladder is not properly emptied, which can cause
urinary tract infections such as cystitis. Plonking means potential exposure
to water-borne bugs such as trichomonas. What Nova neglected to mention
is that there is a Third Way. It's simple, convenient, speedy, natural,
and fun.
Pee like a geezer!
