Do you read in the bathtub, /lit/?
no
i do not have baths because i am not a woman
>cleaning yourself by sitting in your own filth
I'm in the bath right now.
>>9625336>not showering before he bathesGet on my level
Why do women like baths so much? What's the point of being in water if it's not deep and you're not swimming and having fun?
yeah
>>9625333Looks like someone didn't start with the Greeks lmao
>>9625383can you really not imagine why someone might enjoy having a bath?or are you just trying to start some kind of /r9k/ circle-jerk?
>>9625323Jup
>>9625404only manlets are able to enjoy baths
>>9625404I enjoy being in a pool or a lake or the ocean because of that floaty feel but you don't get that if you're sitting on the floor in a tub (basically sitting on the floor doesn't seem especially comfortable to me). Not trying to be edgy or start a circlejerk, just don't understand.
>>9625367>>9625409Dude, don't the books get all damp and creasy and puffy
I go through stages where I bath 5+ times a day.
I read in the shower
>>9625420lol mate just try itits great
>>9625423I haven't taken a shower in 8 days bro, come at meSmell emanating from my balls fill the room if I even slightly close the window, it's majestic
>>9625421There's no water in the bath, I hide in here when pa's been drinking.
>>9625333>He doesn't relax in a hot bath to ease his muscles and relax while thinking about the next days Senate meetingWe found the non-Roman plebeian, boys.
>>9625425How does that even work
>>9625443It doesn't
Yes, but not often. I don't like having to put my Kindle in a plastic bag. :( does anybody know of a good waterproof Kindle Paperwhite case?
>>9625453I guess it's for 2 pages/day power-readers
>>9625323Yeah, I read half submersed just because I can.
>>9625460Do you rate your kindle? I'm on the fence about buying the paperweight one. How much better is it than reading on your phone?
>>9625493e-ink is a gamechanger for screenfags
my bath is nowhere near clean enough to lay down in that ish. baths are a privilege, and reading in the bath is ju
>>9625493I love it, personally. It's way comfier than a phone screen. Be sure to get the backlit version if you buy one!
>>9625493paperwhite is goat
>>9625493I just got a paperwhite and it's a gift from god
>>9625493>paperweightthe only thing its good for LOL
>>9625376>wasting water and time for no good reasoncongrats?
>>9625323I prefer to read in my sauna.
>>9625323I like to read Hemingway in the bathtub
>>9625323I would like to, but I always get an itch on the back of my leg
>>9625323all the time
>>9626646Ah yes, The Death of OP. A most joyous event to remember.
>>9625376>having a shower>having a bathroom>having a home>not rejecting bourgeois moralswew lad..
>>9625419(you)
>>9625323I WOULD if I had a bathtub>tfw you miss locking the bathroom door, putting a table next to the bath with a cd player, some chocolate, some cold water or bier and sinking into the water for hours with a good book.
>>9626463>he criticizes others for the ways they relax and enjoy themselvesTruly a patrician
YesWaterproof nook masterrace
If I don't drop my Kobo Aura in the water, can it still get damaged by the damp/steam? It's not waterproof but Idk what importance that has.
>wasting that much waterCA just got out of a drought
>>9627031CA can suck my nads
>>9627031>>9627100Why not have mexico farm it so they can put some labor to use in the avocado trade instead of drug trade
i'm sure quite a few plebs do all rightpic relatedjust don't drop the e-reader while it's plugged in
>>9627130Should you drop it if it's not plugged in?
>>9627133absolutely. those things are pleb-tier.i once sat on a plane and the chap next to me pulled out a lovely 19th century edition of some russian shit and started thumbing away at it like he did this everyday.>patrician
>>9626966yeah, I think so. I wouldn't risk it.
>>9626515
>>9627147kk thanks
>>9625336bro what is this gifracist as hell
>>9627354how is it racist man
>>9627154DFW's finest work
>>9626824Its true only manlets can fit in the tub.For tall people, taking a bath is really uncomfortable.
>>9625323no because how do you wash your hands without getting the book wet and eventually warping the pages like seriously who fucking reads in the bathtub? it's like reading while taking a shit, how about focus on getting yourself cleaned/the shit out/wiggling out the poo instead of distracting yourself, it doesn't take too long just fucking shit then wipe yer bot-bot then you're fuckin done fucks sake what the fuck man
>>9625433my younger brother, he's nearly 20, is sometimes this unhygienic. it's a sign of mental weakness, anon, do not take pride in it. nobody likes a stinky dinky.
>>9626646HaHa this is me in high school getting the enlightenments and BTW music is my life
>>9627587I can understand not wanting to read in the bath but who doesnt read on the loo?
>>9627587for some people, reading on the john is the only place where they'll have a bit of privacy, especially to read trash.have been to some aristocratic manors in Europe, and all the best houses had floor-to-ceiling stacks of books in their admittedly primitive shitters.no doubt you want a Jap-style automatic cyborg jacks that will sing you the fucking book too while you're at it.
>>9626646yeah that's what happens when you read in the bath
>>9627637...Why? What kind of books were they?Were these shitters under the stairs affairs or did they have bathtubs?
>>9627637no all i want is a pretty korean wife is that too much to ask for
>>9627671no bathtubs, anon. typical french old houses had a separate tiny room for the john. called it throne room usually.some were under the stairs yeah. that's where you keep the pulp fiction and kids books once they're grown up and out of date travel guides etc.
>>9627675>wipe my bum as you sing me the song of your people?is that it?
>>9627687no i can wipe my own backside t b h but korean women are pretty and i want to grow old with one
>>9625514Seconding this anon, they're comfy as fuck, convenient, the backlit ones (technically frontlit, that's why they don't get glary in the sun) especially. Load em up with a tonne of pirated ebooks if you're so inclined. Sure it's not as comfy as a physical book but it's much more convenient.
I don't read at all.
>>9627408underrated post
>>9625439and some of the bath houses had libraries in them too
>>9626774never again shall he suck cock.blessing?or a curse?
>>9625419>>9627463>being this poorHAHAHA
>>9625460loling at the image of this anon lounging in a bathtub holding a kindle wrapped in a plastic baf
>>9625323why would i risk my book to get wet?
>>9625323Straight male here.Nothing I use to like more than some music and a book in a nice toasty bath.>tfw now I need reading glasses and they steam up so no longer enjoy this past time.
