Do You Keep An Entertainment Source In The Bathroom?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 88/100. CurlyRed (3467) 5 years ago

My husband disappears and after a while I think that maybe he went out. That isn't usually the case..

I go to use the washroom and find the door locked.. and then I hear it. He's playing video poker. While some people may exit a washroom and say "that's better", he comes out and says

"I got a royal flush!"

Now I have heard of some magazines of questionable accuracy being referred to as bathroom literature and in fact have had occassion to peruse some it while in various washrooms.

What about you? Do you need ot be entertained in there?

Yes, CurlyRed, I have an assortment of entertainment in the bathroom.

Like you, in desperate times, I will read the shampoo bottle, but I like to plan ahead. I always have a book and / or magazines on hand. In addition to that, I have electronic solitaire, electronic othello, and electronic tetris.

There have even been times when I've taken the laptop into that sacred room.

I don't ever talk on the telephone, though. Nor do I want to watch television.

I also have some of these handheld games in my automobile, for traveling. If I stop at a restroom, I take them in with me. I'm easily bored, CurlyRed. Have I given you too much information, yet?


myLot reputation of 88/100. CurlyRed (3467)  5 years ago

LOL!.. I didn't even think of portable tetris! I love tetris..once I had a version for nintendo, and it had a few different music selections you could have playing in the background. There were no words.. but one of them left my brains singing.. tetris head, tetris head, dadadada dadadada tetris head... don't ask me why..

*laughs* I like how you pointed out that you don't talk on the telephone in the bathroom. I know people who do that, and somehow it just bugs me. =P

Haha Lecanis!!

Hey if Im on the phone, especially if Ive been on hold with a Customer Service dept, and I gotta GO, I will and surely do my best to let them know Im there! LMAO

I would say, being on the phone in the toilet is much safer than on a ladder! ;o)

Never while on the toilet, however, I like to take bubble baths while listening to music, or relaxing by candle light. Sometimes I will bring a magazine just for some peace and quiet. I have three kids, and many cats and dogs. That is my special time for just me.

I stick to reading material in the bathroom and not video games or anything. Does that make me old-fashioned.

Recently in my bathroom I have seen these magazines: Money, Parenting, and Playboy.

And these books: Pagan Men, and the first volume of the manga Legal Drug.

UMMMMMMMMM...... NO!!
What the heck do people need entertainment in there for?
You should be in there to do your business
you arent in there to read or watch TV or play video games
Seriously! If it takes that long to go #2 then perhaps you should be taking a stool softener or drinking some apple or prune juice.LOL


myLot reputation of 88/100. CurlyRed (3467)  5 years ago

LMAO! I think some people just really look forward to it Zu..lmao..

My husband starts with a pre 'grand opening' announcement that goes something like this...

Stands up , rubs belly... "I'm brewin'"... (there may or may not be a couple of belches after this...

Shortly thereafter disappears into his sanctuary for about 40 minutes...

Yes,, yes, I am married to an Al Bundy clone!

Hiya Curly!

At my house, its just your usual reading material....well for our house its usual, HoofBeats, The Horseman and County Fair, race programs from Balmoral Park oh and the sports section of the most recent Chicago Tribune.

I, like Trans, have resorted to reading a bottle of shampoo, if its a new product Im trying. Why read it in the store, buy it, use it a few times, then read the label while your taking a.....well you know haha!

My sister, keeps a hand held Wheel of Fortune game on the back of her stool. Its quite handy! You'll forget your even on there!

myLot reputation of 88/100. CurlyRed (3467)  5 years ago

OH, not only do I read the shampoo labes on the toilet, sometimes I have to stretch my arms as far as posible to reach bottles tat are further away and read them too! Wheel of fortune huh? lol.. I need to get myself tetris for in there..although I do occassionally play the hubbys poker..


myLot reputation of 64/100. BayleighGray (1788)   ranked 1,379 out of 26,919 in people  5 years ago

LOL My hubby will grab his most recent magazine, light a cigarette and be in there for so long that I will forget hes in the house! Until I hear the flush, then Im like Aaah thats where he is!

I usually like it quiet, but I do keep a radio and CD player combo in the bathroom. Sometimes I turn it on and listen while I'm having a nice, long bath.

I think your husband sounds like a real comedian, lol. I love the line about the royal flush!


myLot reputation of 88/100. CurlyRed (3467)  5 years ago

What is even more comical is that he is rarely aware of his own irony.
