@narfcake I put a little cat-post footstool in the bathroom so my nosy one can come in, sit there, and keep me company when processing the latest atrocity I ate.
@DLPanther@macromeh@narfcake Every cat I’ve had has been fascinated by the bathroom. I had one who’d perch on the edge of the tub when I took a bath, and he seemed very tempted to get in, but never did.
The AI-provided topic images are getting better…
(doesn’t match the actual choices of today’s poll, but all the text looks real! Though none of the bars are actually the right height, nor should 10 & 30% show up twice.)
Some people seem to just not leave. I had a roommate that would be in there for 2-3 hours and when they saw the queue outside the door they’d be like “Why didn’t you knock?” Because we all thought you’d leave on your own after you shit.
It totally depends on what action I need to determines the time I take! Plus it it is a great time to catch up on the latest news while you make a stinky mess.
Well let’s see… as a teen my kid spent around 1.5 to 2 HOURS in the bathroom in the morning getting ready for school. 3 or 4 outfits (I knew that because what was left on the floor), did her hair a bunch of different ways… who knows what with the make up. I made her go to bed at 9 because she was getting up at 5:30. I told her if she didn’t want to go to bed that early then she could go to bed later she’d have to get up later and spend less time in the morning - but she needed X amount of sleep - she can do the math to figure it out. Surprisingly that shut her up and she continued to go to bed at 9 and get up 5:30.
@Kidsandliz I’m so glad that elaborate makeup was not a thing when I was in school - the stuff young women do these days must take hours! Fake eyelashes, contouring, fake nails - and then the hair.
@Kyeh for her it was the hair and clothes more than the makeup that sucked up most of that time. Although I finally bought her her own wash cloths, towels, sheets and blankets as she’d get make up and nail polish all over the place and so she’d only wreck “her” stuff and not the “good stuff”.
Less time than Meh was down.
@Ignorant touche
As little time as possible. Smells like carp in there.
Before a cat turns the sign on.

@narfcake My cat found it fascinating.

@DLPanther @narfcake We’ve got to get one of these. Our (neutered) male cat always follows my wife into the bathroom.

Apologies to the late Johnny Cochrane, but
If you can’t shit, you must acquit!

@xobzoo ha ha
@xobzoo Looks like “@drunkcat” may have had a hand in this.

Honestly, if I’m on the toilet more than 5 mins, I start worrying about things falling out that shouldn’t fall out.

Icon checks out!

Poll doesn’t ask how long it takes you to crap.
I bet we have some make up loving ladies that spend a very long time in there. Who knows maybe some makeup loving guys too
And let’s not forget that long leisurely bath with wine and bubbles
All those happen in the bathroom
I know I spend too much time doom scrolling the news because after a while, my wife will start yelling “ARE YOU STILL ALIVE IN THERE?!?”

Long enough to do my business and read a page in The Atlantic or an article in the print version of The Onion.
Why would someone want to sit in their own stink? Get it done, give it a self- courtesy flush and be gone!
