I have, but not to save water just if I have to go while I'm already showering. I try to avoid it though because I think it's weird.

If I have to go that bad, sure.  :)  In Europe, they often have a hole in the bathroom and nothing more... at least back in the 80s when I was there.. so peeing into a drain that is going to the mainline along with all the other dirty water/toilet waste is nothing to me.  ;)

Same here. I've been doing that for a long time. It saves on toilet paper, too! Lol

if i need to go, and i'm about to take a shower, i just wait until I'm in there. it is weird, but i've mastered the art of squatting and aiming

Yes. I do it almost every time I take a shower. My GYN suggested it because I have IC, where your bladder doesn't have a strong wall and blisters all in it. It gives you multiple uti's a month and hurts :(.
After I started peeing in the shower, it helped a lot with the irritation and uti's.
It saves toilet paper too! Lol
