Enlightening

You know the bit in Mad Men where they talk about having a pee? No? Well, no, obviously not. You know that bit in your office where they talk about how accurately they can do it? Of course you do.

The Writer:    That’s why they have the flies in men’s urinals – to improve accuracy.
K:                   What?
The Writer:    Have you seen the little fly, painted fly?
K:                   I obviously don’t go in men's loos very often but I’ll be looking out for it.
The Writer:    Well it makes men pee straight.
Golden Boy:  Surely they would have thought about just making it deeper.
The Writer:    Well…
Golden Boy:  If you pee down a hole it’s more accurate.
The Writer:    Yeah...
Golden Boy:  They had it right with a piece of wood with a hole in.

Ladies don't have anything like this. We don't have a 'toilet target', so this was genuinely fascinating. You learn something new every day. You really do.
