We needed to know that. We need to know everyone's bathroom habits. If we don't know, we can't make informed choices.

I had to make sure this poll was anonymous before I voted.
I debated about that. I was tempted to make it so I could see who voted for what.

Why would anyone want to drink coffee in the bathroom? Balancing your reader and possibly spilling on it. No thanks.

And anyway, coffee is nasty.

I will take whatever I'm reading with me if I think I'm going to be there for a while. If not reading material, then a word puzzle or logic problem magazine.

I work in an area that is a dead zone for AT&T cell signals. For some strange reason, the throne room is the only place in our building that gets a cell signal. I have a 3g kindle at work, and if I read at my desk during lunch, I need to take my kindle to update the furthest page read.

Oh yeah, I also bring the kindle along if I plan to spend some time in the throne room.

Does reading RSS-feeds (news mostly) count? In that case I bring my book readers to the toilet almost daily. If the thread is about reading books specifically then no. I crave a certain mood when reading fiction, reference manuals and documentation has been read while on the porcelain throne though.

Are you TRYING to start a flame war? [and that could be dangerous in this type of "atmosphere" ]

As for the poll, of course. Am I supposed to stare at the wall during a "long session"? I prefer to keep my mind as active as my bowels
