What is your choice of bathroom reading material?

I think of it as "The Throne of Solitude".

how can u concentrate enough to read seriously on the can? i just grab a piece of news paper to read as a diversion

I don't understand why people need a distraction to take a dump. Do you just wander in there and think "well MAYBE I have to go... I'll sit here with my pants around my ankles and read for 15 minutes and see if anything happens." I go in, sit down, lose a couple pounds, and get out.

i know my ish stinks but it aint THAT bad... what do you eat?

I can't keep novels in the bathroom. I've learned the hard way. I'd be done doing my business, and keep on reading for another 30 minutes to an hour. Then, my ass is litterally numb.

I just keep mags in their like Gamepro, PC Gaming, PC MAG, and EGM.

thats what i was thinking when i was in grade school... but at some point i guess the process of 'integration' took over (the rest of my family members do it). maybe it takes some time getting used to, but once you are its one habit that wont easily die.

Then, my ass is litterally numb.

the worst thing is when both of your legs are numb and you still have to wipe your @$$

I used to think the same way, until I started reading while on the john. I haven't been able to drop the Cosby's off without reading since. In fact, if I now find myself in a foreign crapper, I will find anything to read, including labels from air fresheners, etc.

Either the latest Time or Newsweek, or whichever Uncle John's Bathroom Reader volume is handy. Uncle John's Bathroom Readers are great, because the "articles" for lack of a better word are about as much as you'd read while taking a crap. And you can just open it up to any page and start reading.

I read two from cover to cover over four months last summer.

The Best of Uncle John's Bathroom Reader won me a radio contest when I was 16. The trivia question was "What was the original flavor of Pez?" Which I of course knew was Peppermint, because Pez was invented in Austria, and the name is short for the german word for Peppermint, Pfefferminz.

Of course I couldn't claim the prize because I wasn't 18, but then again the prize was a free oil change and I didn't have a car anyway. Oh well.

[The Stigenator]

mine is "Uncle Johns Bathroom Readers Journal"

 

[Krakerjak]

I never used to read but now it is like a ritual, almost a requirement for a successful evacuation.
Anything will do. Usually it ends up being labels on various cleaning/bathroom supplies or else a newspaper. I'm not there long enough to read anything more than a paragraph.

 

[mugs]

Studies have shown that the more educated a person is, the more likely they are to read on the toilet. So take that all you naysayers.

 

[Psycho18]

I've been reading Count Dracula by Bram Stoker.
I've also been hoping for a vampire to barge into by bathroom, while im taking a poo poo, and bite my neck. That'll never happen though, cause my poo poo will scare off anything!
