Guy vs Girl Habit Question: Why Do Guys Need To.....

[Windogg]

Read on the toilet?

Myself and a circle of friends realized that all the guys needed to read when spending "quality time" on the toilet. All the males (4 total) some how lose the ability to dump when there isn't appropriate literature. In desperate situations, all confessed to doing a mad scramble to find any thing, shampoo bottles, deodorant sprays, toilet cleaners, and in the worst case, a label on a handtowel.

The girls (7 total) seem to be able to handle #1 and #2 without literary assistance.

Hmmm.... the funny things people talk about after the 4 drinks each plus 3 pitchers of sangria.

Lets comment before the thread gets nuked or locked.

BTW: Did you know that Thermalsilk Conditioner is covered by patent #5,776,443?

 

[Caliboy]

I can go #2 without any help from a magazine. My dad, however, always takes the morning newspaper with him. But I'd say the majority of guys don't read while sitting on the throne.

 

[optoman]

Yep, its a fact. We can't go unless we have something to read. I'll scrounge around the house until I have something. Makes it a more pleasurable experience.

 

[kduncan5]

I usually take my favorite book with me

Reason: I'm not planning on being in any kind of a big hurry.....:Q -kd5-

 

[kami]

It's true...I gotta read something. I have resorted to packaging labels as well.

ok, too much info

 

[Mill]

Yep I always have to read to do #2.

 

[Windogg]

Hmmm... seems to be a trend on the eastern side of North America.

Tonight I also learned that Thermalsilk Conditioner bottles contain 25% recycled plastic.

 

[SexEPid]

It's true!
Even a shampoo bottle works, anything that is near!
Heck, I've even read my Viper V770 Ultra box on the john :Q

Pid, TYRP

It's not necesary, but if yer gonna be sitting for a while, might as well pull up one of literature's classics (PCWorld is a personal favorite, even though the articles are biased and outdated). It's either that or fidget with things in the bathrooms (did ya know they make q-tips sticks out of plastic now, instead of that paper or wood they used to use?).

<I have resorted to packaging labels as well?>
lol!!!!!!!! me too, like the airfreshiner can.....and the shamppooo botles


got the new issue of pcworld today, guess where it is now, in the bathroom...ehehe

 

[prodigy]

Only gotta read, when I'm on the can for an extended period of time.

 

[Mucman]

Not me... I eat a lot of raisin bran so I am in and out of the can before you can say &quot;light a match&quot;.

 

[Soybomb]

I'd prefer to have something to read but functionality isn't dependend upon having reading material.

 

[bolomite]

Reading is the last thing I wanna do on the throne. Why the heck would anyone want to stay in the crapper longer than necessary? Me, I just pinch the loaf (loaves) and get the hell out of there.

 

[beat mania]

I have a book shelf under the sink in there. Really.

 

[Stallion]

I have a stack of Car Craft/Hot Rod/Popular HotRodding mags in the head along with my PC Gamer's. I will also thumb through my UT and Half-Life user manuals if really bored.

 

[Croton]

yeah i MUST read something -- that's why i have so many magazines.

and if i can't get something to read (like when i'm at work) i bust out my Nokia phone and play some snake, rotation, or memory!

hahahahahhaahah

 

[Aquaman]

I used to read on da can but not since I installed the colour TV Now if only I can get a computer hooked up

Cheers,
Aquaman

 

[PCAddict]

I don't need to read in there, but if I am in the middle of reading something, I'll haul it in there with me if the moment arises.

 

[randomlinh]

nope, don't need to read nothin. Sorry to break yur trend there.

 

[DABANSHEE]

Yes I'll pace arround the house in a panic (like when you can't find your keys) till I find something to read before I duck into the 'Loo'.

I remember nearly 10 years ago I use to live in a house, which had a outdoor corrugated iron dunny out the back. Things just didn't feel right till I wired up some electric lighting in there. It meant I didnt have to leave the door open to let the sunlight in, just so I could read the paper.

 

[ChrichtonsGirl]

This is too funny, I was wondering the same thing this weekend. My dad takes the whole damn paper in there and when I was at my brother's house yesterday, I noticed he's got an actual magazine rack in there. My sister-in-law says he'll spend a half hour in there reading and doing his thing.

Cripes, get in, do your business and get out.

 

[Nutcase99]

lol Aquaman! That's what I have to do, hmmm a Tv in the bathroom but seriously I have to read while on the John as well cause I mean otherwise it gets boring now matter how long I'm in there. I think guys read on the John cause we are more intelligent :Q so just sitting there gets us bored. :Q

 

[Killbat]

&quot;Cripes, get in, do your business and get out.&quot;

That's my attitude. I don't read anything in there unless I was already in the middle of it.

 

[Fathom4]

Windogg until I separated I lived in a house with three women (wifem 2 daughters) my ex finally figured out that was my time to myself and at least quit complaining.

Now I don't use reading material unless the girls are here for the weekend!
