Reading on the Toilet

Recommended Posts

#1 no,

top 5? quite possibly

It was the first in a series of simple pleasures. Not necessarily the best simple pleasure, just the first one I drew attention to.

The second was beds.

There was no third.

I was wondering about that :giggle:

Or start getting numb legs from nerve compression at the back of the thighs?

(unless you have a very comfy toilet seat, that is...)

I do. I have been known to sit on the toilet for 45 minutes. Normally around 6pm.

I guess it depends on how much you value your poo (so to speak)?

Hmm for me it's more... I would hate not to have to go.

ie lack of evacuation is a pain, but I kind of take it (going) for granted :whistle:

Like James said before its one of the "simple" pleasures.

Of course plenty of better things to do, but going the toilet is a necesssity, thus reading on the toilet makes it a pleasure and one of the most simplest. Only other simple pleasures i can think that beat it are a cuppa or having a nap.

But valueing of poo (so to speak) is a completlty different topic

Don't you get sore from sitting there so long?

Oh yeah. I've had that from sitting on the throne for too long. Pins and needles - in two legs it's dangerous, sat on the pot , legs turned to jelly, barely able to stand up and wondering if I'll ever walk again.

With the way these past 2 days have gone, I could've read 4 autobiography's.

Ah but with the big family surely you must have had the pre-warmed seat on a regular basis then?

:sick: There's nothing worse than a warm seat.

I guess it's also a new / modern simple pleasure too.

Relatively a short while ago in the history of mankind, we didn't have newspapers or printed stuff or even writing as we know it.

Or even toilets, of course.

My guess is that humans would spend as little time as possible in the vicinity of their equivalent of a toilet,

particularly if any wild animals were likely to be around... :unsure:

Medieval toilets were places of communal gossip and frivolity :thumbup:

I've never understood why people read on the toilet, I guess if you have a house full of kids its a way to escape, otherwise its just weird.

:yesyes:
