If I had a lap top I probably wouldn't cause I'm not on the toilet long enough to bother with it. When I gotta go .. I go. I don't have to meditate (as my mom use to say hehe) or read to go.

Oh .. I continued talking many a time when going. Was a long time ago and with close friends or bf so it didn't matter anyway. Pretty sure I wouldn't now tho.. just cause it's unnecessary .... and/or stupid. :p

you can get off the toilet right away?

doesn't the whole process tire you and make you want to relax for a moment?

Takes maybe a couple minutes or 3. I've never really timed it..but I know it's faster than most people. I'm relaxed usually at the time anyway. If I'm not ... there is no going anyhow. #2 ofcourse.


Not always .. but it's been a while. I know I'd tell em sometimes. With peeing tho.. well you can hear that unless you mute. But hell they'd do that same to me.. so no big deal lol.

No, after I lost my virtual pet to a river as a kid (among other things) I don't trust bodies of water when it comes to electronics.

Does anybody NOT do it, should be the question. H.e.doublehockeysticks, i'm doing it right now!

Seriously though, it's great for beginner multitasking. Ask me how!

I've thought about it a few times but never followed through. 'Down' time is for car magazines and (for the immediate time being) The Essential Silver Surfer.

Toilets are not bodies of water.

sure why not. Mind you i draw the line at answering the phone in the toilet, i'd never do that to anyone.(although in the past i've pissed off my friends by doing so.hehehe)
I'm sure it's not good for hygeine, but having said that i usually take a book with me (no not that sort, i know what you're thinking).

No! Thats just unsanitary not to mention ackward.

Was this thread inspired by the pic of the lady sitting in the stall leaning over a laptop and the caption read "I can stop NSG anytime I want;really I can." ?

Yes. Yes I do. I even have a table set up in the ensuite just for my laptop. My girlfriend started leaving her makeup bag on the table, so now I have to move it all if I want to surf and shit.
Than she figured out why the table was there (after finding her makeup bag on the floor a couple times), and I think she thought I was a little odd. I don't think she surfs and shits, even though I can't see why not, it's just like reading a book.

No for the laptop, it shall stay out of the toilet.

As for books, usually humorous paperbacks... Like Jennifer Government, The Zombie Survival Guide, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, etc. Magazines are good too.

I've got the calander for Zombie survival guide!
I like Hitchikers guide to the Galaxy. Don't have Jennifer Government though.

Pardon the rudeness: The galvanism residing in your pate appears to have attenuated. Perhaps a dose of baste applied directly to the distressed area will serve the purpose of sanative to the malady?

I use my smartphone for that. Laptops are too unwieldy to take into the bathroom ;)

Your poll option "I would use my laptop on the john if I had one"
Are you referring to having a laptop or having a toilet?

If you have the laptop on your lap, doesn't it fry your sperm?
