Lord Duckhunter Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 My old man always used to go into the toilet with the paper, same time every day. I think it was the only peace and quiet he ever got. After about 25 mins he would emerge from the toilet and with the rest of the family sat around eating breakfast would say, "anyone want a read". Nobody ever did and it put me off reading the paper for years. As soon as I was old enough I used to buy my own paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 I often find there's a big load at the start, then a few more deliveries 10 minutes later. You need something to fill the time inbetween. Having said that, I once got carried away playing Angry Birds and spent best part of an hour sat on the throne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What my wife cant get her head round is the timing, when she needs to go she goes. I dont know if it's just me, but I like to try before going to work, and before going out just in case I get called short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearsy Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 In fact, here's a test for you! How long does he normally take, like 20 minutes?

Bearsy Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 What have you got against bears??? I feel bad for Jillyanne's husband. She's clearly that desperate to bend his ear bout what chores she's got planned for him that she can't even give the poor sod 7-10 minutes in his own society. It's sad really. She should remember that an evacuated bowel is the key to a succesful marriage. She should be encouraging this behaviour! She should tell him to take his time "There's no need to rush, Jillyanne's Husband" Jillyanne should say to her husband. She should take an interest. She should offer to look at what he's done before he flushes. She should stand there silently holding the paper for him while he wipes, gently turning the page when he indicates with a grave nod of his concentrated head that he's ready for the next installment.

pap Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 Speaking purely for myself, I'm always in the bog for a bit anyway. Ms pap is like a rabbit, in and out in a couple of minutes. I'm there for at least ten minutes, don't need all my mental facilities to crimp off cables and don't want to spend my time in there staring at the walls or reading the backs of shampoo bottles (ooh - isopropyl alcohol!). Thus some form of entertainment is required. Newspapers and books are traditional staples, but modern technology has given us a wealth of options:- 1) iPoo - a poo enjoyed with an Apple device, such as an iPad, iPod or iPhone. 2) PSPoo (archaic) - Playing games on the last gen Sony Playstation Portable. 3) Craptop - any laptop, really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopGun Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 My Kindle lives on the shelf by the toilet. It's less expensive than potentially dropping the iPhone down the bog and ensures a chapter a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitey Grandad Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 When I was a kid the toilet was out in the garden. Newspaper was what you wiped your arse with. Or wrapped up fish and chips. Or both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearsy Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 You have a dirty mind! If he says he's having a dump he's having a dump! 7-10 minutes is suspicious though.

andysstuff Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 It's the man's version of multi tasking.

Kingsland Codger Posted 22 March, 2012 Share Posted 22 March, 2012 When I was a child my mum pasted the times-table to the back of the loo door - together with a sheet of other relevant facts like 1760 yards = 1 mile and 30 pence are two-and-six. I was therefore conditioned from an early age (by a woman) to make full use of the idle time available to improve my knowledge. So, no, Jillyanne, it's not "a man thing" - but maybe it's "a caused by a woman thing" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raging Bull Posted 23 March, 2012 Share Posted 23 March, 2012 I take a cup of tea in sometimes. I can vouch for this, or an ale. A bloke can tell if it's gonna be a smooth roll call or a labour of love, however there are exceptions like taking a dump at SMS in which case it's in and back out like an SAS soldier in 3 mins......that includes the paper work too!
