Hell, might as well be productive...

>>75 percent of people have texted, emailed, used apps or surfed the web while nature calls.

Toilet texting on the rise - WTOP.com

Careful... don't hit Facetime.

Might roll you over. Could wipe something out. Might make a splash.... lol.

You guilty?

    It's one of the best places to be super productive because you are NOT distracted- well having said that, there are certain minor distractions.

      I might start telling people I do just so they won't grab my phone!

  • And the awful thing is...they're not washing their hands before sending those texts!
    Just think of the viruses they are spreading!

    Is there an app for that?

    Brings new meaning to the term..."I can't stop now - I'm on a roll"!

    There are some websites that announce what their users are doing on the user's facebook timeline. For instance, if I listen to a song on spotify.com - it announces on my timeline - "Gary is listening to (whatever song) on Spotify".

    I've thought about buying a domain like TheCommode.com and putting games on there. Then when someone plays a game on the site, I can link it to their time-line and announce something like "Gary is playing a game on TheCommode".

    Maybe I could fund it with "AdScents" ?


    Ok maybe not.

      Sounds like a good place to sell my product: "FlatuScents ®" :p

      It's a pill you take with meals, and when you 'pass gas" - it smells like "Pine Tree" or "Floral"...

      (we tried 'lavender'...but people kept farting themselves to sleep... :rolleyes

      What do you think?

    Well . . . sounds to me like one more strong case for hands-free technology! As long as the built in web cam hasn't accidentally been activated! (Oh. Here's another YouTube gem!)

    I can honestly say that I have never texted while on the toilet ... because I don't have a cell phone!

    Besides, I am typically task oriented, so I would be taking care of paperwork, not texting.
