I never knew I was a urinal snob until I saw a few design-y posts lauding these urinals by Clark Sorenson as beautiful and compelling.

THEY AREN'T!!!

I am not totally a closed-minded traditionalist on the urinal-front. I can see that urinals could use some improvement. I've pee'd in Phillip Stark's urinals, and hell, it wasn't, uh, discommoding at all. To the right you will see Stark's urinal, and below you can see Phillip Watts "spoon" urinal. Both are great, but the ones below them are seriously not ok.
