please, please flush

The past couple of days there have been several instances where I've gone to the men's room and some clod hasn't flushed the urinal. Not sure I understand this. It's at our place of work, so it's not some cheap old guy refusing to flush to save a couple of cents. The urinals in question have a pedal-style flusher you push with your foot, so it's not a question of not wanting to get their dainty hands dirty touching the pisser's handle.

So what is this, some kind of territorial marking ritual like a cat spraying? Dunno how effective it is -- sure dude, YOU can claim the urinal. I don't want to own it I just want to take a whiz in it. Or is it some weird show of virility -- look, I left a lot of piss in the toilet? Big deal, when I've had a couple of beers, I can raise the water level on Lake Okeechobee by two inches -- but I flush anyway.

Obviously these guys are poorly raised ill-mannered louts. Is it any wonder women think men are slobs?
