The_Round_One Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 An article in the Atlantic Monthly online version says that an amazing number of people use social media in the TOILET!!!! They cite a survey saying that 1/3 of young Americans do this. Are you one of them? What's so vital that you have to tweet or post while using the loo?

Michael9344 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 .Lol. I've posted from the loo...like twice. It's not that it was overly important. The conversation was just so interesting and I wanted to go. And I'm going to stop here:)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotNoNever Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Well, when there's nohing else to do but do, you might as well do something. The trouble starts when you drop the wrong thing in there ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AquariusGuy Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I don't use mine phone at all. Toilet/Water damage is the number 1 killer of phones and now we know why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrea Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I hate to admit it, but I am a frequent bathroom phone browser. Mostly at work though. At home, I generally lose my phone the minute I walk in my door and don't find it until I'm ready for bed. It pisses my friends off, but I hate to be bothered at home.

layla Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I can hardly be bothered to keep track of my phone, let alone add in the added worry that I might accidently flush it in the sewer. Not to mention that I'm lucky if i check my facebook twice a week to say hi to family, I couldn't see needing to check social media in the bathroom. I tried twitter, once, for about a day, i coulnd't find the appeal, in that day I learned just how many things that a person does that just aren't worth talking about, I mean really, the world needs to know someone had a ham sandwich for lunch?

Krista Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Ummm noo.. lol. I've seen those pictures in the bathroom mirror... don't people have large mirrors in their bedrooms anymore? I do.. and a small vanity mirror in the bathroom. It's no place for a photo shoot or twitter update.. haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomas Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I seem to remember seeing a survey that found that 16% of people that own mobile devices do their online Christmas shopping while sitting on the toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daddydavek Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I don't know why this is surprising. Grafitti is one of the oldest form of social media on the planet and has been in toilets for millenia.

Zachary McGinness Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 What the hell? I really despise the Facebook era. Friendsing with 500 people you don't even know sharing every worthless little detail of your pathetic meaningless lives...and in the toilet now? Are people so desperate for attention and companionship that they can't even take a <INSERT WHATEVER> without someone holding their hand (psycho-socially speaking)?

Maximoff Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 You can do other things than write on Facebook/Twitter in the bathroom. I just don't like to waste time so I read my rss feed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
