What are you reading on the toilet?

To be honest, I don't spend any time reading anything while I'm in the restroom. I tend to get my business done in record time, so I’ve been wondering how everyone manages to read so much in there. Personally, it would have occurred to me to just listen to some music on an MP3 player, or better yet, bring a laptop along so I could listen to tunes while catching up on the forums. Since I constantly find myself getting annoyed by all the nonsense and mindless comments posted anyway, maybe having a distraction would actually help someone get through their business 😂

If it were up to me, I’d probably listen to some music on an MP3 player, or better yet, bring a laptop so I can blast tunes while scrolling through the forums. Since I always end up getting annoyed by someone's stupidity or a dumb comment anyway, maybe having a distraction would actually help people deal with the stress before they finish their business 😂

Look, you've got plenty of options... listening to music, reading, or even just "self-care" (as someone else mentioned)... there's a huge variety of ways to kill time. It really all comes down to how fast you are
, on the trigger—or rather, on the junk 🤣

It’s all fine and well, but these newspapers are absolute trash. The layout is just completely wrong for what I need. 😢

I don't have the bandwidth to read this; it just flies by too fast

I can’t believe I’m not the only one who keeps copies of Alan Ford sitting right on top of my washing machine. Way back in the day, my bathroom was basically famous for having every single issue of those comics stacked up there, and now that they're being reprinted again, here we go all over again. Honestly, I have them saved on my laptop too, so maybe moving them to the bathroom isn't such a bad idea—I've got two copies anyway 😛🙄

I mean, your digestive system is a total mess. You should probably go see a doctor. ☕

Why on earth would my gut be messed up just because I'm not overexerting myself?😕

messages.

Sophia Young3 Asks:
Why on earth would anyone get on my case just because I'm not out here grinding twenty-four seven? I mean, seriously, why should I be in the doghouse just because I'm taking it easy?😕

It’s not really about how fast things fly out the door. I guess you just have to hang in there and wait a little longer. Maybe more will show up eventually—and honestly, they usually do. 😁

It’s basically just a ritual at this point.

What a wild topic 🤣
I usually try to be pretty quick when I'm venting, but if I think I’m going to be here a while 😁 I’ll turn on the radio. Or, like most people on here, I just grab whatever products are within arm's reach and start reading the labels in every language I can find.
It doesn't matter if it's bleach, shampoo, or some hair gel.
As long as there's a label and it's a little bit long, I'm good. 🙂
When I actually have an exam coming up, I'll just grab my study guide and go over it. ☕
Because honestly? About 90% of the time, the stress of an upcoming test just sends me running to the bathroom. (Okay, maybe that last part was a bit much 🤣).

I play Bubble Breaker on my phone. 🙂
If I ever find myself behind bars, I’d recommend reading the Republican Party's messenger; it’s bound to be helpful. 😁

I usually spend my time reading "Indigestion, Constipation, and Hard Stools."

Honestly, I can finish wiping my backside and poking around my rear end so fast that I have enough time to belt out "From the Mississippi River to Mount Denali"
or, more recently, "I am a rock."

I honestly can't wrap my head around it. So many people feel this desperate need to have something to read while they're sitting on the toilet, yet nobody ever thinks to actually leave anything behind... You know, just a few comic books, some novels, or even a couple of magazines left on the counter. It’s like common sense just flies out the window the moment you walk into the bathroom... 🤷

It’s practically a ritual.

For me, it’s all at once, 😉
but I usually end up on my phone while it's happening. It catches me off guard mid-conversation, and honestly, what am I going to do? Hang up? The whole thing is over in a second anyway... 🙂

Cleaning out my texts on this old Motorola. I just go back into the individual threads and wipe them out one by one.😁

I spend some time reading through product descriptions too... stuff about gels, ARF... comparing how they're labeled in English versus some random dialect from Central Asia.🙄

Anyway, I'll be done in a minute or less.☕ 🙂

It has always struck me as quite peculiar—I’ve never actually experienced it myself, mind you, so I can't claim to be an expert—but whenever I see it depicted in a film, the sheer amount of time they spend on such things seems utterly excessive.

No matter whose house I visited back in America, I never encountered anything quite like what I saw at my friends' places in Denmark:

hahahahahahahahahaha, honestly, bravo. You know, there might actually be a way to make some real money out of this if you think about it right.

I’ve been spending way too much time on crosswords and Sudoku lately... I used to just kill time reading product labels at the grocery store, but ever since I started keeping a crossword puzzle in the bathroom, that's where my head's been at. 😬
