The last one isn’t even as hard as the guy was making out, at least if you’re not a sociopath incapable of empathy.

You want no immediate neighbors. Failing that, you want only one immediate neighbor and if given multiple choices in that scenario, you take the one that doesn’t hem in another person with two people.

On the last example he intuitively chose the correct urinal, because it gave his neighbor only one neighbor. If he chose the other one, the guy he stands next to now has two neighbors.

It’s about your own comfort, but also about empathy and others’ comfort.

I’m only sort of joking.

Hard disagree man. He got this wrong, the correct choice is urinal #3 because it's the only option that allows a return to proper spacing. If the dude in urinal #2 leaves first, then there is now an every-other-urinal scenario, as god intended. Additionally, if the guy in #5 or #7 leaves first, it also leaves proper spacing for the next guy coming in. If you take urinal #4 then you cannot return to proper spacing in nearly any scenario other than everyone finishing and leaving.

The only downside to this choice is that #2 has dual neighbors until he's done, but it looks like he's the one that fucked up the spacing in the first place.

No you all wrong, lvl 4 and lvl 5 depends if the person is left handed or right handed. You shield yourself with your arm/hand. And if you have to, you use the opposite hand.

The guy at urinal #2 didn't follow the rules. He deserves his faith.

I think your heart is in the right place and it's a tough call but I have to disagree. Simply for the fact that the spot he chose took away the only guy left alone, and it feels like he's singling the guy out. Whereas on the left not much changes.

Hard call though. I think both wind up being fine.

Yup I learned this in my cultural anthropology class. Different cultural mores surrounding different understandings of “personal space”. For some countries, the idea is laughable.

He chose exactly the spots I would've chosen

You'd be surprised. How do you think 3 came to be?
