Pissing in wardrobes...
What is it about people who are utterly slashed that they need to piss in a wardrobe?

I'm been totally wankered on quite a few occassions yet not once has my addled brain thought pissing in a wardrobe to be such an uber idea, no matter how pissed I've been I've still been able to hold on to enough sense to find a loo or at least get outside and water some flowers.

I'm sure its an urban myth.

It's like sleep walking
I used to sleep walk a lot when I was a kid. My mum tells me that when I was very young I wandered into her bed room, asked her to cup both hands and hold them out and I then proceeded to urinate into them.

It's a bit more serious where alcohol is concerned - such sleep walking is called a blackout. The individual can appear quite lucid and blackouts can last for hours or even days - that's the thick end of the wedge though, I know one guy who opened up a mates brief case when he was staying over. His mate only found out when he was in a meeting the day after and opened it up (he shut it pretty quickly).

What Buffet said ^
I've (almost) done it a few times - usually when I've been so wasted I've just passed out, then my full bladder has prompted my body into getting up. On one such occasion I was trying to get into the wardrobe and my missus guided me out of the door to the downstairs loo, but I was still sleepwalking and returned to the wrong bed (annoying my housemate and missus in the process).

We were in a flat, where the toilet couldn't be accessed from the bedroom without going through the lounge.
My brother was staying with us at the time, in the lounge. I woke (or thereabouts) in the middle of the night, and decided that it would be rude to wake my brother. So I made my way over to the window, with the intent of opening it, and pissing out of it. (It was a ground floor flat, with a front garden, so it wouldn't have hurt anyone).

It seemed a logical thought process at the time. My wife, though, woke me properly, and said that the toilet was in the other direction. I suspect I was sleepwalking, as I remember trying to open the window much like you'd remember a dream. I can totally see why people might piss in wardrobes, washing baskets, buckets, glasses, outstretched hands, tubas...

Agreed
-10 points for use of word 'uber'.

I used to suffer seizures
during the few minutes afterwards while my brain was rebooting, I could appear lucid, but have no memory of what I doing or of the complete bollocks I would be spouting.
On one occasion, I declared I needed to go pee and as Mrs Sandettie was guiding me there, I stopped in front of the fridge, opened the door and starting undoing my trousers.

I've done it a few times
because, when pissed, I sometimes used to sleep the wrong way on the bed. So when I got up to do the 2am piss I'd get out of the right side of the bed instead of the left side and open the wardrobe door which is where the toilet door would be were I sleeping the right way round... if you see what I mean.

I try and sleep the normal way round after drinking now!

My friend Nick did better....
His Mrs. woke up at 2am to the sight of him squatting, shitting in a wardrobe.
His response to her questioning him as to why was "You wouldn't understand... it's a man thing"

Not An Urban Leg End...
My grandad has done exactly this - albeit when he was alive. My nan woke up to the sounds of knocking and "Ann.....Ann...........Ann..." coming from the wardrobe. He'd locked himself in.

While I haven't done it myself...
I do know of one friend who woke to find her boyfriend happily standing urinating on the radiator on the other side of the room, rather than in the toilet as might be expected.

The result of going out, getting bladdered and a combination of sleepwalking and needing the toilet - if you have experience with sleepwalkers then it won't be quite so surprising to hear - They can be found quite happily wandering about in real life, while their head still firmly believes them in the hold of whatever dream it is conjuring up, so the toilet they seem to believe is in the cupboard in to them the one in the pub, or something much less sensible and more dreamlike.
As with most sleepwalking, ask them in the morning and they will have no knowledge or recollection whatsoever of their night time wanderings.

So I guess it depends on your mental stage, if you never sleepwalk to start with, I doubt you will regularly find yourself pissing in odd places, someone more prone to sleepwalking will find it somewhat less surprising should they go to bed with a full bladder.
