You heard the question.

WHAT DO YOU DO OVER THE TOILET?

(or, qu'est-ce que vous faites sur la toilette :))

This has been a thing that has suddenly popped into my mind and I find that quite curious.

Usually, whenever I'm strutting my stuff, I pop open a newspaper or a funny comic book and read away. Mother hears me giggle in the bathroom, but I assure her that that's just because of the comic book.

My cousin used to take his gameboy into the latrine, and you could actually hear the buttons click away in the adjacent room.

So.

What do you do?

(remember to keep a level of confidentiality. Remember; I just had dinner.)

I just sit though at work I'm self conscious that someone is waiting for me to make a noise so I hold it in until there's nobody in there cause sometimes it's wind and you don't want to be the guy who makes wind. Though being a cleaner, you hear really ucky noises from the toilets AND you know who made them which always makes me look at them in a new light, normally a nasty evil light but a new light all the same.

I never really read or anything, just sit there, gazing and thinking my own thoughts, usually about story ideas. I did have two story ideas by sitting on the toilet, though normally my bed is 94% of my story ideas formed whilst under the sheets, having a little... thought :)

I hate people who take papers in the toilet cause they're too lazy to pick it up and take it with 'em. Tossers :D

Sometimes I ponder life's unanswerable questions on the toilet but mostly I just excrete my waste products. :D

I play my PSP on the shitter, that way when I play Burnout: Legends I can shit myself when I crash. Most of the time I remember to pull my trousers down.

That's like scrubs with the epiphany toilet. :D

I think about how i would feel right now if i wasn't having said poo or wee.

I tend to review my text messages and respond to any I haven't replied to yet. Either that, or enjoy toilet-humour stories on ananova.

After that, I tend to think about what time I can be bothered to get up.

I usually text my buddy to tell him I am in the toilet to which he replies he is watching me and could I do this and that he has a sick mind ;)

Or I read a pre-prepared mag , the toilet is like a temple of calm and relaxation and should be treated with due care and love :D

Is there something wrong with me? It seems odd to me that you would think "Oh, I need the loo, I'll just fetch my Gameboy" or whatever.

argh

I don't think it's quite that bad, I tend to just mess with whatever I've got on me. For example I usually review my messages; but if I've not got my phone on me, I'll just get my wallet out and see if any of my credit/debit cards are about to expire.

Hell, I just get on with it :D I don't go out of my way to think "oh that'll be great to do whilst on the shitter"!

I'm going to put my oddness down to the fact that I don't read newspapers, own a handheld games console, or have a working mobile phone.

But even if I did, I still wouldn't take them in with me.

Surely I can't be the only person who does nothing?

I tend to read Garfield books. Or a magazine I'm really into sometimes.I just sit though at work I'm self conscious that someone is waiting for me to make a noise so I hold it in until there's nobody in there cause sometimes it's wind and you don't want to be the guy who makes wind.I'm quite the opposite. I think that if people are silent in there they are either doing nowt or they were wimping out of using the urinal and being on display. That what I think others think. Also if you need the wee and use the loo instead of a urinal, I try and make sure I don't make weeing noises so people think I've avoided weeing next to them.

Don't know why I think you lot will understand. I know I don't. I just do it.

This reminds me of a website I set up for my friend, for her employer on toilet habits!
(which is http://www.geocities.com/howdoyoupoo )

To answer the question, I get on with it, and back to whatever i was doing previously.

it depends.
at home i read one of the many trashy novels that my housemate and I have accumulated over the years. Since we moved into the new flat, they have gravitated towards the toilet.

By trashy, I mean novels with titles such as "the phi-sigma-kappa ordeal" or "The Conservative Manifesto".

At work i read incredibly high brow papers, with titles such as "the kappa signalling pathway features proteins expressed in the lower bowel" or "The Communist Manifesto".

In fact i have taken to dropping my load at work, as my toilet at home is small and stinks for days... Also the reading material is much better and generally for people with a decent IQ.

Of course, when i'm drunk I do what the romans did and read my future in the contents of my stomach. usually they tell me "you are going to hurl for at least another hour, bringing up only bile. That skanky kebab is going to give you the worst food posioning evar and the toilet will be your new besterest friend"

I listen to my iPod, read shampoo labels (at home), check my pockets for something to play with or try to connect to WAP on my phone (curse 3s busy network!). Usually I just do nothing actually.

two chemicals in the shampoo I have.


I read labels too :( then I peel them off when I'm done.

I used to take my Game Boy in with me (about 10 years ago) until I dropped it down the bog. I never risked it again after that.

The Game Boy still works though. \o/

At work, I try and beat my phone at Othello on the hardest level, which I've never managed to do. It's easy to beat on every other setting, but on "Very Hard" it's sodding impossible. I've been trying for 3 years!

I read a few pages, or do whatever puzzle someone's left in there.

Man, it sucks if there's only the minesweeper-esque one in there. I can't do that.

I always poo first thing in the morning (yeees, after I get up, hah ha), so I'm never awake enough to read anything. I tend to sit there smoking a fag and try to deal with the fact I'm not asleep anymore.

Ah rings of fire :)

I'll tell you what's worse though... when it burns while peeing. One time it was so bad I had to keep taking a break and splashing my dick with cold water.

That happened after a particularly hot curry btw. Maybe there's a link between phall curries and the phallus.

Is a hot curry a new euphanism (sp?) for a slut?

I like bathroom advice colums better. Seriously, why would multiple people give advice to someone who said they hate life while using the potty. Maybe they were just constipated.

At school I used to write "Mr MacMillian (the principal) watched you while you pee."
