To Pee or Not to Pee?

Picture this is in your head, you are sitting in the movie theater sipping on your drink and eating your popcorn while you are watching your movie and all of a sudden you have to go pee. How are you going to hold it during the movie? It is not healthy to hold your pee and it can also lead to bladder infections as well as other problems. You don't know when the best time is to run to the restroom and pee. Well, runpee.com has the solution to your problems. If you have an iPhone, runpee.com has an application available for you to download from iTunes so you can check your pee times from the theater. The Run Pee application cost $0.99 and requires Edge, 3G, or WiFi Coverage to Function.

How does this work?

Runpee.com has a list of movies that are currently in the movie theaters and they have figured out what the best times are during the film when you can run to the restroom and go pee. They even have a built in timer to let you know how long it is until the next time you can go pee. They will even add a little vibration a few minutes before your pee time in case you forget it.

Here is an example of how runpee.com works. If you are planning on going to see the movie Aliens in the Attic, there are several different pee times that you have during the movie. The first pee time is approximately 35 minutes into the movie when Tom says, "Let him suffer" and Ricky runs off with Bethany. At this time, you have 4 minutes to run to the restroom. While you are in the restroom, you can read exactly what is happening during those 4 minutes.

The next pee time for this movie is approximately 45 minutes into the movie when Mr Snuggles makes Hanna's hair stand up. At this time, you have 4 minutes to run to the restroom and while you are in the restroom, you can look on your iPhone and read what I is happening at that time. There is another pee time at approximately 52 minutes which you have 4 minutes to pee, and another at 1 hour and 2 minutes where you have 3 minutes to pee, and the last one at 1 hour and 26 minutes where you only have 1 minute to pee because there are bloopers from the film that you don't want to miss at the end of the movie.

You can select your movies by release date, alphabetical order, running time, classic movies and can also include archived movies. Some of the current movies they have listed are Aliens in the Attic, Funny People, G-Force, Orphan, The Ugly Truth, Harry Potter, Bruno, I Love You, Beth Cooper, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, Public Enemies, Cheri, My Sister's Keeper, Away We Go, and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

If you do not have an iPhone, you still don't have to miss out on this exciting feature that runpee.com has to offer, you can go online and unscramble the text of what is happening on the different pee times and copy and paste them in your word and writing down exactly what the pee times are you take them to the movies, just in case you have to go pee. Be kind to your bladder and use runpee.com.

    I meant, "It'd be a bit embarrassing to talk about using the Runpee.com site to my friends and family"!

    If I had thought about this problem several months ago, I could have helped the people who went to see "There Will Be Blood" regarding optimal peetime. Their first opportunity would come at no minutes and one second and would last the entire length of the film.

    This is hilarious. I think it sounds pretty useful. I'm always struggling to find the best time to run out of the theater :-)
