What do you do when you sit on the toilet (apart from the obvious)? Do you read a newspaper or a magazine? Take your time, is it healthy to sit too long or is it a bad thing to rush too much? Is it 'common' (vulgar) to read on the toilet? Personally I usually play chess on my mobile phone. If I want to know where the toilet is in a public place, I often ask where the 'bathroom' is, like what Yanks do; I just think it sounds nicer.

Remind me never to borrow your phones 
Mobile Smellyphone?
I read "Viz", or random factual books. My current one is "What eats wasps?".
When building my new bathroom it took a lot of willpower to not install a 12V TFT and get a waterproof keyboard and mouse... otherwise I could DIYnot from there
Does anyone here have one of those Tilevision TVs in their bathroom I wonder?

Here's something I ponder sometimes.
When visiting foreign, the toilets often have two buttons, marked 1 and 2, for a light flush or a full flush, and in effect means you use Button 1 for Number 1s and Button 2 for Number 2s. Is this the origin of the expression, or is it just because 2 rhymes with poo.
If reading catalogues, try to get hold of a Brico Depot one. Makes you wonder why the french don't wash more given that their plumbing stuff is so cheap.......

Saw something on Discovery last night. Said that in America they banned 13L flush toilets cause of the amount of water they used and the maximum they could have were 6.5L. So people were driving to Canada to buy a 13L toilet and bringing it back home.
How big do your "droppings" have to be to warrant a 13L flush?

It's not how big it's how sticky, and therefore how much paper you use, but this becoming more distasteful by the word...
In answer to the original Q - do su-doku puzzles, and I don't think it's unhealthy to spend too long, unless you put your elbows on your knees and cut off the circulation to your lower legs, or unless you fall asleep or pass out and slump forwards.
Women might like to get in touch with Brightness to arrange lessons on peeing standing up. Take a camera for Moz's sake.
Finally, re the French, apparently the hole-in-the-ground squatters they like put you in anatomically the best position.

Toilet Snorkel
US Patent Issued In 1982
What exactly is this man doing? Communicating with his neighbors using his new Toilet Phone? Blowing up his Inflatable Toilet? Or is he simple blowing bubbles? Well the correct answer is None of the Above. This guy is using the new breath easy, Toilet Snorkel, formulated to provide a fresh air source during fires in high rise buildings.
In most fires, it's the smoke that will get you, and a source of fresh air can be a life saver. So our inventor designed a way to snake a snorkel through the zigs and zags of your toilet, so you can breath sewer air instead of smoke. Here's our question... couldn't he have, just as easily, invented the Faucet Snorkel instead?
I think I'd rather choke.
Personally, I will never understand the male thing about having to read/do something on the loo - apart from the obvious!
I go in, do what I need to do. Use loo roll and wet wipes (because I like to be clean). Pull flush, wash and dry hands. Spray air freshener if needed and then leave.
Oh yeah and I usually have two dogs with me too - I thought once the kids weren't toddlers any longer I could toilet in peace .... I wish
It's a case of let the dogs in too or have the door scratched down

I agree.
I do the business (hee hee) then go.
I have just got a lock put on my bathroom door.
Prior to this, I got interrupted all of the time. The kids would come in and brush their teeth or hubby would want a shower.
Also... I would be having a lovely relaxing bath and then it would be spoiled by hubby or kids coming in and using the toilet!!!!
Now with extension, I have an ensuite toilet and a downstairs one too but old habits die hard!!
At least now I can lock the door!!
I also hate sitting on a warm toilet seat!!!!

i will say this...if you happen to be plagued with bouts of constipation....chances are it is because you have 'trained' your bowels with bad habits. the longer you sit....you are in essence telling your brain that -that is normal....and with most things, give an inch,,,take a mile. get in, get out...done. stay healthy
