I don't think I've ever actually done anything to pass the time other than stare at the floor/my hands/into the abyss. I feel like I at least want the illusion that I'm not going to be sat there for the long haul, and taking anything in with me would be resigning myself to numb thighs and woeful sighs.

I write front page news stories for The Daily Telegraph while sat on the porcelain chair. If I have diahorrea I just write the celebrity articles for the Daily Mail. I find the environment very inspiring.

I sit and record my knitting podcast that I've called Knit and Shit.

I agree though, if it takes more than a minute to evacuate your bowels you can get help here.

I manage my affairs, I do sudoku, I work on a unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity, I play a game known as sink the brown fish, I work as a sous chef for an establishment in Chelsea

[Tubbs]

I have a shit.

Seriously though, I don't understand people who get time to read a book or browse the net on the bog! Not to be too crude, but I barely get time to park my botty cheeks on the seat before it's wham, bam, thank you ma'am!! (I suppose IBS and a vegetarian diet will do that to you, although I've never been officially diagnosed - with IBS I mean, not vegetarianism, ha.)

Like I say, I never have to spend time grunting and straining, but they are invariably 'thousand wipers'/like wiping a brown marker. Total toilet time = 3 to 5 minutes. Since you didn't ask.

I usually prepare my next one of these

I like to sit and relax a bit before I drop the kids off at the pool.
Generally I just sit scrolling through Facebook or SAUK.

Someone needs to tell my 4 year old this.

I supervise my toddler. Gone are the days when I could use the toilet in peace.

[SFC01]

When in a public toilet, who waits for the hand dryer or someone else flushing before laying down their first cable ?

Hate those people who ruin your nice quiet spot at the end of the row, and use the next door cubical, even tho all the others are empty...im like **** off mate.

Can someone clarify the self reflection option before I cast my vote

[Dougella]

^ Clarify? What are you wondering about it?

self reflection with mirrors, on the loo, squatting down etc

or thoughts about ones character etc



I could vote for either to be honest

[Dougella]

^ It could be either

[anxiouslondoner]

^^ I've learnt one lesson from life - never self-reflect. Of either kind. It's just not worth the pain and realisation. Self-awareness is mind torture.

[Dougella]

^ Also it's very awkward to try to bend that way.

I agree, although if you only handle things before the wiping stage you're probably ok!
I never take my phone in the bathroom, I've known too many people who dropped theirs in the toilet or the bath

[Mr. Nobody]

I usually do a couple of sessions on Duolingo,
(which is kind of like playing a game on your phone?)

think it's become a bit of a habit now,..

So you have tried it then ?

[Dougella]

^ I only said try!

Now I understand what the film "Gone In Sixty Seconds" was all about.
I didn't realise it being s**t was a metaphor

Now we know what the 'so solid' in So Solid Crew was referring to as well.

Apparently, as I wouldnt know, a friend told me, get a stick and tape the mirror to the end, then you can self reflect with ease.

[Dougella]

^ That sounds like a selfie stick to me
