This Sims 2 machinima documenting male restroom etiquette starts off with a rather standard defecation of the "Never stand directly next to another man at the urinal" prime directive. Worse yet, the makers seem to think that various toilet euphemisms are absolutely precious. "Yeah, yeah," I impatiently muttered, ready to close the tab. But then a breach of bathroom conversational etiquette leads to a zombie apocalypse, and the film suddenly becomes one of the greatest Sims machinima ever.

One thing they do not cover is when someone you know at the pub saunters up to the trough next to you and then gives you a hearty slap on the back, as if this were a "Hail Fellow, Well Met!" sort of communal moment. There is a string of unsolved murders by way of urine asphyxiation in Dublin with my DNA all over the crime scene because of this. Florian Eckhardt
