How did you ever?

Destined to be a classic crazyjoe topic!

I've steppe up my game lately from smart phones and now often take a shit with my Kindle handy. Don't want to loose a minute of my reading and TUSCL'ing.

I always waited to use a public rest room so that I could read all of the witty inscriptions on the walls.

That's what Playboy was for

LOL at shadowcat's response.

Honestly, I've thought of this very topic before, and it has changed the way I interact with other people. I NEVER touch anyone else's smartphone at all, I don't care if they are trying to hand it to me to show me a picture or they dropped it on the ground. Too many people already do not wash their hands after they use the bathroom to begin with, add to that the number of people who pull out digital devices after they piss and then decide they have to take a wet dook...heck nah.

I guess the thing that has always confused me about these topics is that I never needed nor desired reading materials over the course of expelling my bowels. Don't get me wrong, I've stayed in the bathroom, sat on the toilet with the fan on just to spend some time away with some sound blockage, and during these periods I usually just center myself.

But taking a dump for long enough to read a book, seriously? I've had to jam one out, and used the bathroom fan for covering in times past.

Texting on my smartphone? Looking up articles in the bathroom? WHY? I just don't get it, but it seems to be popular amongst some people (ewwww).

No, honestly if I go to the bathroom because I need to drop a world trade tower, sometimes I cut the lights off and jack the fan up and make airplane noises with my mouth to cover my shame. I never really did/do the disgusting smartphone/tablet thing though, unless I'm just going in there to get some peace and shut-the-fuck-up.

There was life before smartphones?

I've had two dancers tell me they ruined a phone dropping it in a toilet. Must be a real bummer to lose your phone that way.

For a while, I had the Farmer's Almanac in the bathroom. A few pages at a time was cool.

Soooo.....No one else ever just takes a shit, and a quick shower afterwards if a female is involved?

No one else finds someone using their "smart" device on the crapper disgusting?

I thinking I'm waiting for prices to drop on smart phone plans or the stock market to get more active or better coverage in my area with good prices. Until then, I don't own a smart phone.

Read a book? I'm in and out of the bathroom except for the cleanup. I've never had a need to change a lightbulb in my bathrooms and I bought my house in 1999. They made good incandescent light bulbs back then.

Here's some truth: Smart phone plans are for chumps.

They literally don't allow people text\call cell phone services if the person using said services has a phone that can be connect to a network. Does that sound disgustingly ridiculous to you? GOOD, because it should.

Smart phone plans won't drop, ever, because apparently it is now a protected American industry, much like Banking without added value or hope of economy stimulus. Cell phone plans won't drop, "smart phones" seem like they should be something different, but they aren't. You either fight back or bend over and accept your place.

I'm too busy fucking around with bidet.

I had one of those mini golf mats in the bathroom so I can work on my putts. :)

If I'm on here during SF business hours, I'm sitting in a stall in the bathroom.
