It's not a blog, it's a blag.
Maybe I just had too much to drink with dinner, but I'm giggling helplessly
at that whole bit.

I wasn't aware that there was a difference; I assumed it was an
intentional misspelling, similar to how XKCD is an intentionally
meaningless acronym.

Actually, that's a surprising result. At a glance I would have thought the
packing efficiency would approach 50%, but the whole point is that while it
can, it doesn't if everyone follows the rules. Interesting.

Maybe I'm different, but I couldn't care less which urinal I choose.
(Yes, I know that whole thing is humoristic, and it's not the first
time I hear about it. But nevertheless.)

What's really funny is that, as I read his selection rules, I was
thinking "Yep, that's what I do" :)
But then, we Yanks have got problems with our "personal space."
