Just piss on the ground. You might find Jimmy Hoffa, or Snooki!
Besides
Telling an American Soldier where or witch direction to pee is—an opportunity to express their displeasure. I would suggest to pee with extreme predjuduce.
I sleep with the soles of my feet pointing East.
Thank you, sir! Now to train the dog to aim that way.
Hey Moobairhead. I’d piss on your rock if I could but I have no intention of visiting anywhere near your ridiculous legend of stonehead kabob hajj parlour.
At first I was bummed out-three heads in the house and they face north, south and west. None of them face east. Then I had a thought-I’m pretty far west, maybe far enough that Mecca is actually closer facing west, not east. So I looked up the longitude of Mecca (45 East) and sure enough, I’m good to go! No renovations needed for me to pay my respects to the rock when I drop a load, and it’s even my favorite throne in the master bath.
I'm sure the dog thinks so.
Actually from Indiana, it’s more Northeast.
From Kabul Afghanistan it’s only slightly west of southwest, not due west.
From WV, it’s northeast. Maybe that will be easier to accommodate. :)
for Charleville, Aus, the direction towards Meccas is about 15 degrees north of due west.
Every time a GI needs to take a leak, he must now have a muzzie along with him so he doesn’t pee in the general direction of Mecca...but us non military one’s can do it any time we want to make up for the soliders that cannot..
“.........The advisory states, “Every complete copy, or even a partial passage, is considered holy. It is considered culturally insensitive for any non-Muslim to touch a copy of the Qur’an.”.........”
When I was in Pakistan a Muslim gave each of us a copy of the Qur’an and hoped that we would read it.
I kept it - and have read it - it only confirmed what I knew before.
OK, I live in Alabama. I’m assuming I pee east. Is there some website where you can enter your location and get the exact compass bearing to pee toward Mecca. If not, why not? It would fill a vital need.
