Men: How do you feel about urinals?

Specifically the public urinal experience…

I’ve heard so many “horror” stories from guys—strangers trying to have small talk during the peeing, or standing unnecessarily close, etc… the worst experiences are in what some of the guys describe as “trough-style” urinals, especially when they are at crowded events, shoving in between other guys to get to the trough, standing shoulder to shoulder… in one story there were some drunk men telling stories and flailing side to side, apparently unconcerned with where they were aiming.

Is it generally an uncomfortable experience? Do you feel a lack of privacy or space? Or is it really not that big of a deal, except for a few moments that later become funny stories? What public urinal styles are better/worse?
