So I go the men's room on my floor yesterday. Two of the three urinals were taken by Vietnamese gentleman from the trade consulate, whom were talking to each other in Vietnamese. As I don't like being at the urinals with people who are talking, lest they try to engage me in convo (and I have a general rule that I don't like to talk to others, and especially men, while I have my wee-wee in my hand, unless there is sexxxing involved, and I had already sized these two up as not being MMM material), i made my way to one of the stalls. The first stall door was shut and as I walked by I realised there was another Vietnamese official in it, as he began talking to the other two. This struck as me weird, as I avoid talking to people crapping (except during scat-sex), especially in public. After I secured myself in my stall, and made the executive decision to sit down for my pee, so my backside would not be exposed to the door of the stall (better safe than sorry), it got even odder. The three gentlemen continued to engage in conversation, including the stall bound chap, who intermingled his convo with a hellacious constitutional that included a audio demonstration worthy of the laxative scene in Dumb and Dumber. There was a lot of chuckling and guffawing during the convo. I was paralysed with fear at the exhibition and felt concerned for my person were I leave the safety of my locked stall. Anyhoo, the convo and constitutional lasted for about 4:37 (I timed it), during which time the first two gentlemen I encounted never moved from the urinals (I could see their feet under the stall door). Finally the stall dude wiped and left his stall and then they all walked out. The stall guy flushed, the urinal guys did not.
Queries:
Does any of this seem odd to anyone else or is it just chalked up to cultural differences?
Is it possible to pee for over 4 minutes (shake time included)?
Is it rude to talk to others in a public restroom when you are shitting and farting?
Do you think that they were laughing at me ala Elaine in the Korean Nail salon?

1- I take it from the description they were older than you (i.e. over 50). Vietnamese gov't officials over 50 would have learned their b-room habits in the North during the war. That is, they grew up squatting over 1 of a line of holes in the ground, and w/o walls between neighbors. You have to talk or it seems too weird.
2- If they were guerilla snipers during the war they would have learned to hide quietly in a tree for days- hence building up bladder strengthen and capacity- I've heard reports of 4 minute pees.
3- see 1- it's nice that he flushed. that was actually a sign of respect to you.
