    If flushing the toilet supposedly covers things nearby in aerosolised fecal matter does using your laptop in there not mean that it's pointless to wash your hands afterwards since the keys will all be covered in germs (or are you a truely scummy person and don't even flush?!?).

    I don't even like the thought of texting on the bog, nevermind using a laptop.

    After I've gone through the ingredients on any new bottles it always comes the sh|tter, but I tend to spend a very long time in there if I do bring it.

    Gives me a break from the missus tho


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,857 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    I have.... then felt ashamed, so hid the laptop under some towels in case someone saw me :(

    It doesn't count if I just use my phone, right? right?

    Only when in a mates place in Ennis, It was the only part of the house where I could get an unsecured WIFI signal. Wouldn't use it if I was sitting on the can.

    I needed to go to the bathroom but I was holding it in cos I was too lazy to get up. Then I saw this thread and thought "golden opportunity".

    Now, lots of material to work it. Lets see the double entendres.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,571 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    Of course I squat and surf


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,314 ✭✭✭Marcus.Aurelius


    On occasion when I'm working too hard and have a serious need to go.
    I never go with laptop for number twos. Or to use a urinal, though the logistics are intriguing to see the least.

    somebody needs to create some form of laptop harness....

    I imagine something like at climbing harness that goes up over your shoiulders and has metal pipes extending from there to around belly button height and also from your waist to the same point would work.

    You have to wonder how exactly would it get compacted in there so well that it will take them long enough to get it out that they need their laptops to entertain them while squating...:eek: on second thoughts I don't want to know.:p

    de-pant, squat, squeeze, plop, wipe, wash... 3 or 4 mins... no newspapers or laptops required.
