Shouldn't the text be flipped? The point was Picard was shown a number of lights and told a different number. The picture shows five so he should be saying five. Right?

    No because Picard is speaking the truth. No one uses the other two, and therefore they aren't urinals

    If you do end up in a situation where you must use the other two it is proper to say "nice watch" as you maintain eye contact.

    Who wears a watch on their penis?

    I have definitely used urinals shoulder to shoulder in places where there was little choice, like an airport.

    Right, but that's the funny thing about jokes. They don't need to be 100% accurate to be funny.

    Yeah, but jokes do work better when grounded in truth. Are there seriously people out there who will just piss themselves if 1,3, and 5 are occupied?

    Instead of rushing to the most extreme option ask yourself if the 1st and 3rd urinals are occupied which one would you use? I'm finishing explaining the joke so I'll just leave you with this, if you make the changes the original commenter suggested, there isn't a joke anymore. It's just Picard counting urinals.
