What's on your toilet in terms of reading material?

[pokerfan]

No Walt Whitman but poetry does make a lot of sense.

1. Several of the "Straight Dope" books

and a collection of old Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers comics.

4. I have the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers

but they're someplace a little safer than the bathroom.

2. Several issues

of "Reader's Digest" and a copy of Benjamin Franklin's "Fart Proudly" (which isn't really about farting).

Usually Mr Pipi and I carry our respective Kindles in for potty reading.

3. Currently? From memory...

Kraken - China Mieville
The Geek's Guide to World Domination
Go Rin No Sho
Heiho Kadensho
Dresden Files - Jim Butcher (Not sure which book, I like re-reading them)
Bring It! - Tony Horton
Born to Run

Thing is, my book collection is very close by so it rotates quite a bit.

Oh! Also, I just got a bunch of the Marvel Civil War Graphic Novels, so they are close at hand.

5. The daily paper, but we have to hide it from the kittens in between visits or it gets shredded.

The other common visitor to "the library" is the latest issue of my wife's "Black Belt Magazine". Speaking of which, I just got an e-mail subscription renewal notice.

6. Salt Water Sportsman and High Times

It goes into the bathroom with me and comes out with me.

10. Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind.

In case I run out of toilet paper and need an emergency source.

[Brother Buzz]

11. Dr. Bronner's Pure Castile Soap

[Liberal Veteran]

14. God I hate that label.

My bathwater goes tepid with me squinting to read it.

[Smickey]

12. "The way of Zen"

By Alan W. Watts. (old dog eared paperback). I find it relaxing ; )

[ohiosmith]

18. Me!

I'm an avid reader!

[Solly Mack]

20. The downstairs bathroom is decorated in political cartoons.

A cork board across one wall to change and or add cartoons. Framed cartoons and a hanging photo tree with cartoons. Guest use this bathroom. I love the look on the faces of people coming out of my john. I just grin. A person can see and read the cartoons from a seated position. Not much choice really. It's fairly in your face.

Above the toilet is a framed print of a boy sitting on the toilet reading. The caption reads "Library".

Assorted books can be found. Whatever we're reading at the time and a few standards. (Jokes for the John, a book of quotes, mini-books on art, poetry books...things like that)

[bigwillq]
