So what's sitting by the crapper to read? Anything special for those precious moments?

Right now I've got an out-dated copy of PSM magazine....Usually I've got something like Darwin Awards II...never get tired of reading those, or The Far Side Gallery Collections - Short and sweet...

This is an excellent topic well beyond the the boundaries of boredom denial, exceeding the merits even of the urinal topics circa July-October 2003.

May you receive plaudits from far and wide.

A dear friend of mine refers to the little room as his "library".

From recollection I have:

* a poster size crossword book facing on the wall
* Pinker's "The Language Instinct" and "How The Mind Works"
* a book by an author not to be named that deals with the downfall of democracy in the US since 2000 and DNA Activation as a solution to that
* "The Girls Of Esquire", an entertaining and only sexist to a point book of short stories and articles from the dated men's magazine, vintage 40s-50s.

Once I cohabitated with a woman who was a model of efficiency and could not fathom the purpose of reading matter in the little room.

Is this a uniquely male domain?

A very healthy and varied collection! That's what I like to see....sometimes it's just no fun reading the same thing twice......

LMAO....Cohabitation....That truly is the best way to phrase living with a women, isn't it?!

I would have to admit that I've never known a woman to read in the bathroom....Unless they're taking a three hour candlelit bath....Ladies! Don't you know how bad that is for your eyes!

....Gourmet magazine, Bon Apetit and Glamour.....it is odd, no? That they're all Conde Nast publications.

Oh? You meant that two are foodie rags & one is a woman's magazine?
Well, I like to cook & eat out........and tactically, if you could know what the "enemy" was thinking, wouldn't you want to?
