PSA: Gentlemen and Blokes, please don't miss!

Let it be said straight for the outset, that I'm not perfect. I've never claimed to be, but one thing I think I am is kind, and considerate. I'd like to ask all men, Gentlemen, blokes, guys, however your describe yourselves to please not miss. 

Too many times of late, I've entered the facilities of a public place and been faced with either a toilet cubical or the floor of a urinal absolutely swimming in other men's piss, and frankly I'm getting tired of it. God (if there is one) gave us the tools to be able to direct our waste towards the target, so why do men seem insistent that it should go everywhere but the bowl?

The previous point is probably a moot one, as no matter how good an aim you are, there's always that moment you're not expecting; the split stream, or the "torque steer" you get from an extremely urgent pit stop. These and other reasons could explain an errant water jet, but that they can't explain is why so few people seem capable of cleaning up after themselves. 

My appeal to all men is a simple one. Please don't miss, but if you do, please, please, please clean up after yourselves. I don't want to be cleaning up someone else's wee wee before I, or my son can go to the toilet. 

Rant over.
