    If i'm at home its a book, right now i'm cr***ing my way through The Silver Swan by Benjamin Black

    But in work i tend to print stuff out from the papers or sutes like Slate or Salon

    We get newspapers where i work, somepeople bring them in when theyre going for a sit down, i think thats disgusting....

    If I'm stuck i'll read a shampoo bottle, or look up something on my phone

    Any thoughts on crapper reading material?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,597 ✭✭✭WIZE

    I only shit when i need to. I never understood this thing of sitting on the toilet for 5 minutes, aren't there better things you could be doing with your time :confused:.

    5 minutes? You've got to be kidding me lad.

    A good 10 every morning is the only healthy option.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,382 ✭✭✭petes


    Whatever comes to hand. Be it soap or toothpaste. I don't purposely bring something to read when I go to the bog!

    Like what? Sometimes I even stay on the jacks to finish the page, article or chapter I'm reading.

    I usually play word warp on my iPhone, or check facebook.
    I always hate sitting down for a constitutional and realising my iPhone is downstairs. I've already read every bottle of product in the bathroom.

    Although I used to have a book called the Big Toilet reader, it had thousands of articles of all different lengths for the amount of time you'll be in there. Learned lots of random stuff from that one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 122 ✭✭demag


    Boards.ie on the phone. Can be in there for ages if I find a good thread.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,575 ✭✭✭✭FlutterinBantam


    Wouldn't read much, just clean out the bell butter off me todger with whatever toothbrush is handy.

    Nothing. I would never be in there that long, the idea of people reading in the bog appalls me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,790 ✭✭✭cornbb


    iPhone - it'll change the way you sh*t forever. They don't say it in the ads but every iPhone owner will tell you this.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    It takes me 2 minutes to **** at most. That's not long enough to read anything :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,337 ✭✭✭Archeron


    Homer Simpsons book of wisdom. Read it hundreds of times, but its good jax material.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    I keep several books and magazines in the crapper which I update weekly.


    It's a little thing called hospitality, look it up some time you guys

    I tend to read 'Viz' magazine whilst on the bowl. Love the 'Reader's Top Tips' section. My favourite include -

    - Increase blind people's electricity bills, by turning on all their lights when their guide dogs are not looking!

    - Motorists! I find that pressing the break pedal when approaching a bend helps to slow your vehicle down.

    Or my favourite tip EVER:

    - Parents! Child choking to death on an ice cube? DON'T PANIC! Simply pour a jug of boiling water down it's throat, and the blockage
    will be dislodged immediately.

    :D:D

    Don't know about Viz helping me to s***, but I would certainly be p***ing myself whilst reading it!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,547 ✭✭✭Agricola


    Its hard to sh!te, fap and read all at once. Somethins gotta give and its usually reading


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,498 ✭✭✭BrokenArrows


    how long do you people spend on the toilet ffs.

    Im never in there long enough to have time to read anything. I only go to the toilet when there is an immanent chance of crapping myself. So once my cheeks hit the seat there is no waiting around. haha.

    That, and it can`t be hygienic. You`d end up with loo bugs all over your books/mags etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    usally Q or 442
