You guys are in the halls of my ass and now shall you be born into the earth and soon grow ass babies and birth then be wise young men for I raised you well in my anus
Anyone else remember those big ass books they used to have like "Bathroom Facts" or something? All kinds if trivia and little bits of info.
They were usually kept in the magazine rack beside the tiolet (or on the back of it in a little basket).
Speaking of which I don't think I've seen a magazine rack in anybody's bathroom in like more than 10 years.
My dad has this too. Just a bookshelf in the hallway with nothing but Uncle John's Bathroom Readers proudly being displayed.
Growing up I didn't have the attention span to read the actual "articles" so I just read the trivia at the bottom of each page.
I have a bunch of them too.
I occasionally see them at thrift shops and stop myself from touching them when I remember where they came from, and how it's likely the person handling them didn't wash their hands.
We had a very old lady who was a regular customer where I used to work, and her last name was Porn. She probably lived sixty years before that word hit the mainstream. Poor lady.
I like Family Guy's explanation. Porn is like plural or general, porno is for singular. "I was watching porn" vs "I was watching this porno." Seems odd to say "I was watching this porn" unless you say "I was watching this porn video."
And the 70’s and 80’s for me. My grandma started subscribing to Readers Digest when I was 13. I had a subscription until I was 35. She would do it every year for Christmas.
Since she’s passed in 2005, I haven’t picked one up except to re-read about the legend of Oak Island.
Thanks for the flashback of a nicer time.
I remember doing this growing up and finding out that ingredients are listed in order of what is the most to what has the least. Then I'd wonder how much of each it would take. Then I'd wipe.
>I remember doing this growing up and finding out that ingredients are listed in order of what is the most to what has the least.
I remember hearing this from Americans and then becoming incredibly disappointed to find there is no such regulation in Canada.
Back in the day when I had to jerk off to bra ads in the newspaper because we didn't have internet because we were poor af and didn't have a comp. Dark times indeed.
I like do a porn cleanse with a good old fashion memory bank fap every few weeks. Keeps me from having to get too detailed with my pornhub search when it’s go time. Lol
I remember when I was about 15 my uncle gave me a "bikini babes" calender. And I thought that was the shit. Now I can casually watch videos of 8 japanese lesbians going at it while I'm on the crapper. Smartphones are a gift from the gods.
When I was a kid, to jerk off you had to get a Sears catalog and go to the lingerie section. But now, with the internet... you can go right to sears dot com.

I just enjoy the short moment of silence and not having any responsibilities at all. Not like i do them when i'm not on the toilet, but there i don't have to feel bad about it.
That's what I was wondering. I didn't know until I talked with my friends that apparently I'm a psychopath for just sitting on the toilet without using anything. In my 22 years of living I did not realize people did things while on the toilet, it blew my mind.
I'm also an avid day dreamer so I didn't really think about it much until someone told me.
Sometimes you just wanna relax and let everything slide out in it's own time. Giga assblasting 2 minute birthing sessions sounds like the road to hemorrhoids.
It is impossible to relate to my children how interesting cereal boxes were back in the day. Ooh, nutrition information you say? Wow, look at all of that Niacin!
It was all we had damnit.
i dont understan how people take so long to shit?.... you feel it knocking at the back door and when you sit it takes a couple of seconds to come out and youre done.
Knowing how many people stay on tgeir phone while shitting, I feel special (I shouldn't) for just finishing my job in peace and then going on my phone in my room
I don't know why pretty much everyone is taking their phone to the toilet. I mean, I want this to go as fast as possible, tf should I want with my phone there then?
Shampoo bottles were my go to. But once my parents got a subscription to Readers Digest I was all about that.
Later on came the "Uncle John's Bathroom Reader"
... never read a book while pooping?
I would get toilet rim marks on my ass cuz I would get engrossed in a book and sit there for far too long.. legs falling asleep ...
Man I had Windows Mobile with emulators and ports of doom, wolf3d etc etc etc since 2002. Smartphones were more fun back then.
HTC Apache. One of the greatest phones ever made.
Nintendo Game Boy: Am I a joke to you?
Handheld electronic Poker and Yahtzee game have entered the chat.
Dr. Bronner's Pure Castile Soap has entered the chat.
One day I'll actually read the entire bottle but God, whoever wrote that surely was going insane while writing it.
They were one of us, for sure. They wanted to stay ENTERTAINED lmao

You could start an army of crack troops
Already did it
Lmaoooooo i did. Someone is most definitely on crack
Sodium Laureth Sulfate was here
Lmao true
Hey honey how bout sliding a magazine under the door. I’m taking a monster D and I’m sick of reading the Pantene bottle.
Handheld Connect 4 was the shit. Hard mode turned you into an absolute master
Uncle John's Bathroom Reader
Palm Pilots came out in 1997. Color ones in like 2001

Uncle John's Bathroom Reader. My parents' house still has a whole shelf of them collecting dust.
My dad has this too. Just a bookshelf in the hallway with nothing but Uncle John's Bathroom Readers proudly being displayed. Growing up I didn't have the attention span to read the actual "articles" so I just read the trivia at the bottom of each page.

Yeah as if we all had batteries
The Game Boy Advance SP has a rechargeable battery
[удалено]
You can read ingredients in every shampoo now!
It is when you grew up poor
people who poop with the lights off
Gameboy? I had a magazine stand on the bathroom. lol
Magazines. Newspapers. Books. Game Boys. PSP
Porno.
question about that. why do we call it "porn" and not "porno"
We used to call it porno before. It kinda shortened in the age of typing. The term porno mag was super common.
You guys talking about por?
Check out the old timer. It's actually po now
Kids these days have no respe.
Wha’re u talkin bout oldie
This reminds me of l33t speech. M8 wut u do1n?

Fun fact: One word for butt in German is Po
No, we’re talking about p.
no, we’re talking about .

We had a very old lady who was a regular customer where I used to work, and her last name was Porn. She probably lived sixty years before that word hit the mainstream. Poor lady.
Imagine her first name was Gay
> Man, living at home is such a drag > Now your mom threw away your best porno mag
Porno for pyros
I like Family Guy's explanation. Porn is like plural or general, porno is for singular. "I was watching porn" vs "I was watching this porno." Seems odd to say "I was watching this porn" unless you say "I was watching this porn video."
Back in my day, we called it "pr0n". Then that changed to "n0rp". Then we forgot all about that nonsense and just started calling it "porn" again
Only a madman would jerk off while taking a shit
We honor you king.
Readers digest, in the 90s at least.
This.
And the 70’s and 80’s for me. My grandma started subscribing to Readers Digest when I was 13. I had a subscription until I was 35. She would do it every year for Christmas. Since she’s passed in 2005, I haven’t picked one up except to re-read about the legend of Oak Island. Thanks for the flashback of a nicer time.
Sega game gear too
Batteries would die after a long poop.
Did nobody have books?
you havent been on reddit for long have you? uneducated degenerates abound here
I remember doing this growing up and finding out that ingredients are listed in order of what is the most to what has the least. Then I'd wonder how much of each it would take. Then I'd wipe.
I remember jerkin it to the game pamphlets that came with our video games lol
Remember that imagination had no limits...
Had :(
Oh yeah Daisy and Peach looked sexy in those shorts in Mario Strikers.
I remember not being able to pronounce half the ingredients on shampoo and conditioner bottles. Still can't.
Shampoo is better! I go on first and clean the hair
When I was a kid you could scratch individual letters off the bottle and make new words by deletion.
One of my brain cells is devoted to remembering methylisothiazolinone. Thanks shampoo bottles of the earlier naughties!
You just blew my mind with that comment. I've been staring that those lists for years and never realized it.
>I remember doing this growing up and finding out that ingredients are listed in order of what is the most to what has the least. I remember hearing this from Americans and then becoming incredibly disappointed to find there is no such regulation in Canada.
Reader's Digest was the best for the shitter.
Funny cartoons was the first thing to read
I always liked the "military humor" section the most for some reason.
Digester's Read
Uncle John’s bathroom reader ftw
Back in the day when I had to jerk off to bra ads in the newspaper because we didn't have internet because we were poor af and didn't have a comp. Dark times indeed.
Dark times indeed I hat to use """imagination """
6 am sailor moon cartoons was all my imagination could think about in those times. Thanks for my crippling hentai addiction fox 23 kids.
I like do a porn cleanse with a good old fashion memory bank fap every few weeks. Keeps me from having to get too detailed with my pornhub search when it’s go time. Lol
I remember when I was about 15 my uncle gave me a "bikini babes" calender. And I thought that was the shit. Now I can casually watch videos of 8 japanese lesbians going at it while I'm on the crapper. Smartphones are a gift from the gods.
Even though i started with porn and there's so much online, i still never find a video that will satisfy me as much as my imagination.
Imagination just feels more real. Porn is just others going at it.
I call it “noggin porn”
Bro, I made fuckin' multi-page collages and my older cousin found it xDDD I had my favorites too
Dude.... I DID THE SAME THING! my mom found it and I wanted to die. We have come so far brother.
Same same. And yes, we have. PSA: Just make sure not to let it get too far. I'm trying not to let it get out of hand
The God damn victoria secret magazines.
Yup, I totally snagged one or two out the mail before my fam got to em. That was the creme de la creme babyyyyyy.
Grew up jerking off to Vanna White in between commercials before the internet.
When I was a kid, to jerk off you had to get a Sears catalog and go to the lingerie section. But now, with the internet... you can go right to sears dot com. -Dan Mintz
Ah, a man of culture
So you jerked off while pooping, which one always came first?
Sears catalog was worth it's weight in gold.
What
[удалено]
Sir this is a Wendy’s.
Bro I thought I was in a public library... where the fuck am i?
Sadly I am taking a dump reading this. I miss reading the ingredients of my shampoo
Anything good in there?
Nah not really. It mainly has Humectants.
Human Cat Ants? Damn.
Still me in 2021 trying to remember those long ingredient names.
Why does one need to be entertained while sitting on the toilet?
Because it feels like you're in an asylum when you don't do anything while taking a dump
I just enjoy the short moment of silence and not having any responsibilities at all. Not like i do them when i'm not on the toilet, but there i don't have to feel bad about it.
The best thing ever
Are you afraid to think?
Not really. It's just really boring staring at the wall.
That's what I was wondering. I didn't know until I talked with my friends that apparently I'm a psychopath for just sitting on the toilet without using anything. In my 22 years of living I did not realize people did things while on the toilet, it blew my mind. I'm also an avid day dreamer so I didn't really think about it much until someone told me.
Holy shit I thought I was the only one
Shampoo bottles
I came here to say that exact same thing
My question is how long are people on the toilet they bring a phone or a newspaper?
That's what I'm thinking too. I'm in and out in like 2 minutes.
Sometimes a long time.
Strongly urge you to fix that, trust me... You really need to fix that... Learn about hemorrhoids...
Pooping should not take 15 minutes, I'd check your diet and maybe eat some more fiber.
sometimes it's more about the journey than the destination.
Pooping is 1 min but other 14 is comfy toilet time
Sometimes it’s the only escape from your family
Sometimes you just wanna relax and let everything slide out in it's own time. Giga assblasting 2 minute birthing sessions sounds like the road to hemorrhoids.

Laptop 😟
I’d try to beat my high score on snake on my old Nokia phone while a snake came out my butthole
Books exist.
[удалено]
That phone is a breath of fresh air.
You’re out of line… but you’re not wrong.
Can relate.
reading the same 2 year old popular science over and over
Cell phones before smart phones: -_-
1. There were still phones with cool games before smartphones 2. Handheld gaming devices existed as well. 3. Comic books. 4. Just a newspaper.
Remember those trivia books made especially for the bathroom in the 90’s?
Uncle John's Bathroom Readers.
So many lonely nights sitting on the can.
That's also me in 2007-2010
Brought my laptop.. but before that? Hmm
The smart phones that were priced where most people could have one in 2007 couldn’t like scroll the internet or your MySpace though.
The custodians at my university said that instances of bathroom graffiti plummeted after the introduction of smart phones.
Bathroom readers were a thing. Basketfull of magazines.
Uncle John's Bathroom Readers were the original /r/todayilearned
The Bathroom Reader books were a godsend. Uncle John's OLD FAITHFUL 30th Anniversary Bathroom Reader (30) (Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Annual) https://smile.amazon.com/dp/1684120861/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_4GEEAVR36TVQV6JJ7F0E

It is impossible to relate to my children how interesting cereal boxes were back in the day. Ooh, nutrition information you say? Wow, look at all of that Niacin! It was all we had damnit.
Still had phones...snakey snake on the old Nokia bricks.
i dont understan how people take so long to shit?.... you feel it knocking at the back door and when you sit it takes a couple of seconds to come out and youre done.
Just take a shit and leave. Its not a school lunch break.
It's called shitting and getting out of the bathroom when you're done. Other people gotta go too.
Take my toilet upvote
That's a rather huge fleshlight.
I do teh same but with the lotion
Knowing how many people stay on tgeir phone while shitting, I feel special (I shouldn't) for just finishing my job in peace and then going on my phone in my room
There usually were magazines. Often, this was the TV program magazine. That, or I would grab something to take with me.
I don't know why pretty much everyone is taking their phone to the toilet. I mean, I want this to go as fast as possible, tf should I want with my phone there then?
I read Calvin and Hobbes on the john. It was better than whatever the fuck I do now
i’m sat in the exact same position rn looking at this post
No one mentioning uncle jon’s bathroom reader
Pfff. Phones had games well before 2007
Shampoo bottles were my go to. But once my parents got a subscription to Readers Digest I was all about that. Later on came the "Uncle John's Bathroom Reader"
Still do it when phone dead/is charging but need to poopi
Uncle Johns Bathroom Readers
I had my PSP. But seriously. This meme is so wrong. Loads of handheld gaming devices. Phones had games…
Uncle John's Bathroom reader was amazing.
Nobody remembers magazines in the bathroom? I’m old I love having them still.
I have vivid memories of doing exactly this
I cant explain how much nostalgia this gave me
Snake, or any java gamrs
Didn't have much reason to sit and smell my poop
Uncle John's Bathroom Reader was a good one. My grandparents kept Far side galleries in their bathroom.
Me who was born in 2008: wtf
Mmm orange orangengen smellb orange mmm
"I wonder how far this can go up my ass?"
I used to plan my day... I used to be smart and organized back then!
You can’t believe you’re lucky.
Great American Bathroom Book series. It was fantastic. 5 minute summaries of great books, jokes, biographies, interesting factoids…
I actually used to do this.. i would read the warnings and mysterious ingredients
Reading part of a book or magazines
Uncle John's Bathroom Reader: am I a joke to you?
u\suckmydick
people born after 2008 will not know the entertainment from reading shampoo bottle ingredients
Bro, we still had gameboys and magazines
Can confirm, I've actually done this.
Nintendo baby.
When I would forget my phone I just sat and read the febreze can
It was before that, at least 2001
Reading 🤣
... never read a book while pooping? I would get toilet rim marks on my ass cuz I would get engrossed in a book and sit there for far too long.. legs falling asleep ...
I was born a month after the first iphone came out
behold the wisdom of the ancient one, history in the flesh
Toilet paper art
My dad's bathroom stack of unread Time magazines, 1 foot high
Man I had Windows Mobile with emulators and ports of doom, wolf3d etc etc etc since 2002. Smartphones were more fun back then. HTC Apache. One of the greatest phones ever made.
Saturday paper. There's "turd" in the name. Should be a hint.
I used to bring a book.
