Full Bladder Improves Decision Making 229
anymouse writes "What should you do when you really, REALLY have to 'go'? Make important life decisions, maybe. Controlling your bladder makes you better at controlling yourself when making decisions about your future, too, according to a study to be published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science."

I've been in a similar situation for years. I now have scientific proof that my being 'the most indecisive person people have ever met' isn't my fault... I think.

I would say "lucky", but...well, you know.
On the other hand, were you hospitalized for, say, too many strippers grinding on your shit? Or, from too much Snoo Snoo? If so then see my initial statement.

On a side note, it's been great for playing MMO's as there's no need to get up to toilet...
Somehow I suspect that will not give you as much of advantage as you may think it does. Truly dedicated MMO players don't seem to concern themselves with bodily functions, or where they even occur. In fact, I doubt many of them can tell that they are happening.
The best advantage that a MMO player can have is an intercom system that allows them to request Hot Pockets and Game Fuel with a simple hotkey combo.

I've worked with some folks in my career who should have been pissed upon.
"Ah, Donald Trump! I've been expecting you! You want to make a deal? Well, I'm a gonna whip it out, and then you can try to deal with this .. ."
On the other hand, a lot of the time that I've been working with certain executives . . . I think that their top skill is doing sword fights down at the pisser.
Hmmn . . . time to update my skills profile . . . "En Garde!"

The best way (for males) to make decisions is when you blow your load either during sex or while masturbating. Right after orgasm suddenly everything becomes so clear because of sharp increase in dopamine. You let go of your inhibitions, fear, ego and able to formulate completely rational thoughts. But you need to make decisions really fast because the optimism fades away really quickly. I'd say it's 40 seconds to 2 minutes max.
