I do not understand this.

It takes me all of 30 seconds to defecate. Maybe 1 minute if it's a rough one.

What in the world are you people eating that is making you sit on the toilet long enough to worry about this?

Magazines



Would have a magazine rack next to the john and would usually have the master fishing catalog from Bass Pro Shops. Would love to check out one of those old catalogs just to see the price differences on everything.

Maxim magazines were the ticket around the turn of the century.

Saying that out loud felt old and good at the same time.

Agreed, I’ve never understood people who seem to want to spend extra time on the toilet.

Sitting bare assed on an uncomfortable seat a couple inches above a pool of my own urine and feces is not where I want to spend an extra second

Magazines, which usually sat on the back of the toilet for years so you read and reread them.

Since I usually dump and wipe within a minute, I can live without it for that long. But, not much longer. I love to read, scroll, and comment on social media…..as I am doing now. Excuse me while I wipe.
