iConfess


I'm not sure if this is a sin; OK I know it's NOT a sin... but I feel a little hypocritical about it.

If you know me, you'll know there are a few things I simply cannot abide:
-Stupid Stupid People
-Conservative Canadian Politicians
-Céline Dion's "One Heart"
-Litterbugs
-Inexplicable and or unnecessary smells
-asstard drivers
-Nosepickers in Public
-cell-phones in washrooms

...to name but a few. But, it is this last one that I find is causing me grief at the moment.

NO! I have not become a Toilet Telephoner, but recently while on the throne iTouch myself. Especially at work.

Let me explain... while on the throne I have been catching up on e-mail, FaceBook, LOLcats, blog reading and commenting or just playing solitaire (the CARD GAME you bunch of sickos) on my iTouch...

However... in the last couple of days I have been feeling conflicted about this new clandestine practice and feel I need to come clean on the subject.

Would you consider this the same as or similar to talking on the phone whilst on the john, or is this acceptable? And would you be offended if you received an email or blog post of FB comment from me while I was otherwise occupied? Cause, quite frankly I do this because work is so effing hectic it's about the only time I have...

So tell me dear Kittens... is this a sin?

1st question: talking on the phone while in the loo is unacceptable. iTouching is fine as long as there are no audible bleeps and bloops.

2nd question: if you post on FB, read a blog, email etc on the potty, as long as you DON'T TELL ME, then I'm alright with it.

JOE on the other hand WANTS to know that you're posting AND taking a dumperoo.

I turn off the volume when iTouching in the 'library' . As they say, "silence IS golden"... (eww)

I promise never to tell individually where and when I post, however considering time of day posts it can be assumed. Also for FB it automatically says it's from "mobile"... but in my defense I also use my iTouch when I am in the livingroom in front of the idiotbox (OMG WipeOut is on tonight! YAY) when I'm on the roof sunning my pasty white irish flesh, when in the gaybourhood at cafés etc... So I guess it's just a gamble, dare I say 'crap shoot' that even when it says 'Mobile" that it was a toity post....

Did you post this in the potty? If so, ick. Maybe Shirley is right, I don't want to know.

I'm on the side of those who say I don't want to know. Don't ask, don't tell, I guess.
I also believe in a time and a place. The only things I find tasteful and acceptable in the crapper are Reader's Digest, Uncle John's Bathroom Reader (any of the gazillion editions) and/or a newspaper.
And whether I touch myself in the can is another case of don't ask, don't tell.
