What does /lit/ like to read on the toilet?

This is a serious question.

You can't really read good literature while shitting, IMO at least, because you're too distracted. But you have to read SOMETHING right? Taking a shit without a book is like going fishing without beer.

So what do you read?

Pic related.

was intially skeptical, but they're good for a short shit

Poetry. A nice sonnet read twice or thrice is about long enough for me to shit.

>> No.509514

Jack Kerouac. When I'm done I usually use it to wipe the shit off my ass.

I read shampoo/body wash bottles.
The occasional textbook when I'm studying for something.

>> No.509526

I never got that. It takes me about 15 seconds to poop and wipe. When I was seven, I had a friend who read books on the toilet and I was like WHAT THE FUCK THAT IS A TOILET NOT A CHAIR. His pants were up, you see, and the door was open. Is this shit like some adult thing? Hurr durr the newspaper is such a heavy read I must shit it out?

>> No.509527

Hell yeah textbooks are great for shitting in general.

About the friend thing, the door faces the child library thing his parents had. I would look at the science books they had WHILE I WAS ON A FUCKING CHAIR.

>15 seconds

what the fuck is wrong with you?

Anyway I know what your friend is doing 'cause I still do it to this day. I don't know what it is but it feels good to sit on a toilet and read - even with your pants on.

I often take a crap and find myself reading on the toilet for like 15 minutes+ after shitting. I remember when I was like 14-15 my mom was worried I was on drugs because I was spending so much time in the bathroom.

>> No.509533

I enjoy reading on the toilet, occasionally I'll actually stay longer on the toilet just to finish the chapter I'm on. I like to read on toilets the same reason I like to read in cars, it is generally quiet and no one is likely to bother you.

It comes out easily like giving birth to a large marshmallow.

>> No.509547

>>509533

Hell yeah.

It's even better if you have the dryer running.

Or the shower running . . . jeeze I waste so much damn water but I love reading with the shower on in the background. I need to stop it's getting expensive.

I pretty much always need white noise to focus while I read and bathrooms are full of opportunities for white noise so that's another reason I like to read on the shitter.

>> No.509545

I like the unflattering lighting and solitariness of the bathroom. It's quite relaxing. Then again, I don't spend much time reading in there (I'm this >>509524 person), but I do know a lot of people that spend time in the bathroom just doing nothing (or so they say) in particular.

How do you keep the water warm though?

I like reading in the bath but it starts to suck after like 15 minutes when the water gets cold.

>> No.509579

>>509575

Make the water really hot. Also if your tub is well-insulated and not shitty, it doesn't cool as quickly. Or you could just periodically add more hot water.

>> No.509581

>>509575
I get it really piping hot, and slide the sliding doors closed. It usually stays good for quite a while. At least 30 minutes.
