Move to Urination?

"Peeing" is slang. Should we move? TheYellowDart—(t/c)

Ugh! Yes, PLEASE! Just looking at this article title makes me want to puke (and reminds me of a rather unfortunate incident that happened earlier today, but that's personal)! Urination is much better. -Brightstar Shiner 02:14, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

"Peeing" sounds more Homestarish, like Puking and Swears. --Trogga 02:15, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes, but Peeing is a more commonly used term. You don't hear someone say "I have to urinate", they say "I have to pee". --Jangles5150 02:16, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

It's true that "urinate" is a far less common term (especially amongst children), but it is far more proper. — Lapper (talk) 02:18, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

I've actually been debating whether to make a Urination page, based on the ever-growing list on A Jumping Jacks Contest for speculation why the cartoon was taken down. I figured it'd be better to have a page specifically for urination, rather than keep adding them there... But I didn't really want to be one to associate myself with creating a page about urine. =3 --DorianGray

{replying to Jangles' post} Yeah, but we didn't call Swears Cussing or Puking Hurling. Also, Peeing just sounds so discusting. -Brightstar Shiner 02:20, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

I've never heard anyone say "urinate" on H*R. --Trogga 02:23, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Do they need to have said it to make it a valid page name? --DorianGray

My point is, if we move this to Urination, then Puking should be moved to Vomiting. --Trogga 02:29, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Supposing I had made this page, and thusly named it Urination in the first place. Would there be a discussion to move it to Peeing? --DorianGray

Urination is more professional-esque. "Peeing" is so...... uncyclopediaic. TheYellowDart—(t/c) 02:31, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

How is "Peeing" disgusting? --Jangles5150 02:27, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

If your toothpaste fell in a toilet full of pee and you had to dig it out with your bare hands at 7:15 am, then you would think it's disgusting. -Brightstar Shiner 02:35, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Ugh! You nasty!! I'ma going to move it now!! TheYellowDart—(t/c) 02:36, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

The vocabulary used in H*R is "peeing", so I think this would be the better title, much like how "puking" is to be preferred to "vomiting". As a side note, aren't we going a bit overboard to say the word "peeing" is digusting? Heimstern Läufer 02:46, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

<sigh> Fine, whatever. It sure as heck is disgusting to me because of what happened this morning, but you guys aren't me (Or are you?! 0.o), so I guess we can keep it as is. -Brightstar Shiner 03:01, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

I dunno, Birghtstar. If my toothpaste fall into anything I wouldn't reach out and put it back. I'd just use a new one. — Elcool ^(talk)_(contribs) 05:35, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

I agree with E.L. Cool. With all condolances to your dearly departed toothbrush, Brightstar, I think you'd be disgusted whether it fell into pee or urine. So, there's no distinction. Point is, as others have said, this is the H*R universe term. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  10:01, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I guess you're right. Peeing isn't a term I use much anyway (usually "go to the bathroom", "number 1", or "crap"), but it is more Homestar-ish, so go ahead. And just for clarification, I was at snow camp and had to take it out because there weren't any other toothpaste tubes in the immediate vacinity. But that's not the point. -Brightstar Shiner 13:14, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

I like this discussion :)--Ava 15:01, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
