Many old Victorian urinals used to have a little picture of a bee on that exact point that when aimed at would not produce splash-back.
The reason it was a bee ?
The Latin for bee is Apis.

Haha, dude, pee at an angle that is almost parallel to the edge of the urinal. Yes, stand almost sideways at the urinal, and allow everyone to see your schlong, schmedium or schlort.
Or, just, be more careful!
Did you grow too fast or something? Someone told me once, that pubescent teenagers suddenly can't aim so well, because they've gained height relatively quickly, and their perspective has been altered!

'if someone walks in while I'm doing that I have to do the quick shuffle up to the urinal to be within the 1-2ft non-weirdo range'

According to some random show I watched, they actually design them to reduce splashback.... when it doubt, try to increase the angle of incidence.

i remember seeing a book that a fellow architect grad student was using for her thesis about tiolet/urinal designs that was written quite awhile ago (maybe in the 60s?). the book went into great detail about men's urinals and had all kinds of equations in it to show how different designs could prevent splashback. very bizarre book. i'll try to track down the title.

carry tweezers so you can direct your penis down rather than flail around 'willy-nilly' (pls don't excuse the pun)

I always thought it was cool how the holes in some urinals are shaped liked a penis.
