Darth Groovy Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Sometimes, it is serious business. Bottom Line. Reading does help. Me, I prefer video game manuals. Short read, lots of good tips, often pictures. Be it PC, XBOX, or GBA games, I take my manuals into the john at night, and have no problems. Anyone else? Or am i just turning into an old man?

El Sitherino Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Books by comedians. Lewis Black, George Carlin, etc. I used to read the dictionary and encyclopedia. But they ended up with a horrible smell.
Tyrion Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Whatever I have handy...also, there's some books and magazines my mom puts in there, like Time or an Anatomy Book. Makes for interesting reading.
Sabretooth Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 High-speed mystery (eg. Dan Brown) or geeky stuff (eg. Popular Science). Yes, I suck.
StormHammer Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Nothing. :| I sit too long on the loo and my legs go numb. I treat such visits like commando raids - quiet infiltration, do the business, then get out ASAP with minimum casualties. <.< >.>
BCanr2d2 Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Either it's the newspaper, or sport mags.... Nothing too deep, like a novel!!!
The Hidden One Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 They have this series called "Uncle John's Bathroom Reader" it's all sorts of interesting stories with humor thrown in for good measure. That's what I mostly look at.
ZBomber Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Usually nothing, sometimes Ninetendo Power or Star Wars Insdier

jebbers Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Maxim Magazine and Stuff...if i have one handy i'll read a GameInformer...if i gots nothing then i stare at the wall and concentrate....
SkinWalker Posted April 30, 2005 Posted April 30, 2005 Archaeology. Also some peer-reviewed papers from various anthropological journals. Lately, though, I've been reading Collapse - much of it from the pot

That's what I mostly look at. I've read one of those, but it was outside the bathroom. A very entertaining book, with weird facts and the origins of expressions like "getting your goat."
Joetheeskimo Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Asterix the Gual, Tintin, Garfield/Zits/FoxTrot treasuries....you know, all the deep reading.
KBell Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 PC Gamer.......but if im desperate I'll just read the back of the shampoo bottle <_<
Darth Groovy Posted May 2, 2005 Author Posted May 2, 2005 Originally posted by KBell PC Gamer.......but if im desperate I'll just read the back of the shampoo bottle <_< That IS desparate! I'm moving up to Strategy Guides next. Some guys pulled some sick finishing moves on me in UC2 on live last night. They told me the OSG has EVERYTHING, so i'm buying that bad boy today!
BongoBob Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 I too use Uncle Johns Bathroom Reader. No other book has ever taught me so much about subjects like "Ferret Legging".
swphreak Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 I'll take whatever book I'm reading or I'll just grab a magazine.
RebelScum! Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Originally posted by joetheeskimo5 Asterix the Gual, Tintin, Garfield/Zits/FoxTrot treasuries....you know, all the deep reading. I was just about to post all of thats . Including Calvin and Hobbes. Love Asterix and his super strength potion...its like Popeye and his spinach.
Lady Jedi Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 Wow. I've just witnessed what happens to forums where the male:female ratio is waaaay off. How interesting and disturbing. *leaves...fast*
