Paruresis A.K.A bashful bladder, bashful kidneys, mental
cloggery, stage fright, pee fright, urophobia, pee-
shyness,
the slow dribbles, creeping pee-pee, public piss
syndrome,
shy bladder syndrome is a social anxiety disorder that
affects 7% to 14% of the population.
When experienced
in the context of a public urinal, most
of the fear is caused by the fear of embarrassment of
not
being able to pee. It's a silly problem easily solved by a
simulated pee sound (SPS)
The actual product be a coin-sized-button-triggered-
speaker which plays a recording of urination
in
progress. Alternatively it could be an app triggered by a
special key word. Of course the key word has to be
carefully selected to avoid accidental SPS discharge
during
a key meeting. Unfortunately I'm having trouble coming
up
with something that meets the following criteria:
- Appropriate to say while standing beside someone else
at
the urinal
- Unlikely to be said in any other social context.
- Repeatable without sounding too weird (for situations
when speech recognition doesn't pick it up on the first
try)
I'm hoping you can help with that part.
I admit this is better

//You do realize, if the Institute of Psychourologists
ever finds this place, they are going to have a
fucking field-day. |

This shows the merit of not deleting these just yet
... until Psychourologists have a chance to go
through this. |

... now I feel the urge to bake this. |

- reliable/convenient/fail safe way to trigger my cell
phone to play the MP3 ... not so much |

this is so baked in East Asia it's a tooth breaker. Japan tends to sound of rushing water, South Korea goes for birdsong at 120 decibels,, |
