I usually take the phone now, but had a magazine rack for years.   I am one that 9 out of 10 times business is not done in an instant and sometimes takes a few times.  So unfortunate side effect is numb legs often enough.


some do it because its the only quiet time they get.

The ones saying that can't read in the shitter are also the same ones that can't walk down the street/hallway without having their nose buried in their phone

Nasty fuckers take their cell phone in the bathroom and expose it to all of the turd particles / piss droplets in the air.
No one ever saw the episode of Myth Busters where they left a toothbrush in a bathroom?

It sounds like you are in a hurry and pushing the shit out.  

That’s how you get hemorrhoids.  

Gotta relax and enjoy a good book while you let it fall out.

I'm more focused on pushing than reading.  The whole concept of reading in the bathroom, preplanned, is bizarre.

I shit and get off the pot. I don't want shit particles all over my phone, or book/magazine.

I can clean/sanitize a phone every so often, but never heard of anyone doing it with paper books or magazines.

Gross.

Back when paper magazines were a thing I had a pile of them in the bathroom.

I called them the Throne Scrolls.

Why not? The inventor designed it with a shelf to put your reading materials and chocolate milk on, of course I use it.

It seems like there is a common trope in TV that men go into the bathroom with a newspaper or magazine tucked under their arm.  Do people actually do that?  I go in there and I sit down and I get the business done.  I'm not sitting there and reading the newspaper.  Quite the opposite.  I'm in and out.

Had an employee who would take his lunch, then a hour later take a newspaper into the bathroom for 30 to 45 minutes, I finally had enough and confronted him about it, his response waz that you can't control nature, so I told him your right, but I can control your timesheet, I told him for now on, take his dump at lunch time, or ill sign you out for your excess potty breaks, he decided to immediately quit, I was so heart broken.

I'm in no hurry when it's my time in the throne. At home it's my only peaceful moment.  At work (no phones allowed) it gets boring, but better than in the office.

You mean the study?
The shitter is literally the only place I read printed material. I have magazine subscriptions just for my time in there.
It's also the only place in the house where my wife and kid will leave me the hell alone for 15-20 minutes.

These days my smartphone does the job, but I used to have a stack of magazines and books on the shelf near the throne.

I had a boss that would read work stuff in the bathroom, make notes on it, and hand it back.

I would run the returned item through the scanner and immediately shred it.

I knew a guy in the army that told me when he was a young soldier a Sergeant Major told him when you go take a shit instead of taking a porno magazine in there with you take an army manual and read it.   It will give you an advantage over others in job and general Army knowledge


He took the advice and rose rapidly through the ranks to E-7

He then went to warrant officer school and recently just retired as a CW5.  


He gave credit to reading on the shitter giving him a heads up over contemporaries
