If, after seeing the title of my post, you thought about using a cell phone in the toilet, you are wrong.
True, for many of us, who have a bad habit of sitting on the toilet for a long time, the mobile phone is a device that we entertain ourselves with while we are in the toilet, but I try to finish what I went to the toilet for as soon as possible.
Except maybe sometimes 🙂
The topic of this post will be a LooLoo in the nearby pub "Bure Piva" which I regularly visit, either to drink a beer or to eat something with that beer.
But in that toilet, even without a mobile phone, I always stay a minute longer.
The reason is simple.
I'm reading!
When I was young, I loved reading the interesting "Believe it or not" columns in Politika's Zabavnik.
On that page, there were some of the most interesting facts that, without access to the Internet in those years, I could read.
Politika's zabavnik is still published every Friday (ever since the first issue on February 28, 1939), but I haven't bought it for a long time.
The entrance to the toilets, both men's and women's, is interestingly painted, it is clear without a mistake which one you should enter.
At the entrance, there are first sinks, with interesting "deep" mirrors.
When I look at this photo, it is now clear to me that it is the LEDs that give the mirror this depth.
But when I looked at this mirror for the last time, after a few beers, it looked like a portal to another time or dimension 🙂
And when you look at the wall above the urinal, it reminds me of a return to the past.
Because on the wall above the urinal there are interesting drawings, the same ones I read many years ago in the political magazine.
And that's why, with nostalgia, I enter this toilet every time and while standing by the urinals, I enjoy interesting articles.
I'm sorry most of you won't understand them unless you use some Circle option on your phone or maybe some translator.
While I'm in the toilet next to the urinal, I don't have any challenges with reading, but when I finish my work, the problem arises if I continue reading, when another user goes to the toilet.
It's a pity that they didn't put this Occupied/Free sign in front of the men's toilet, like in front of the women's toilet.
If it was placed in front of the toilet, and not just in front of the toilet cubicle, I would probably press the button and turn on the "Busy" light and then read all the interesting things in peace...
But OK, I took pictures of them, so I will single out a few of the most interesting ones for you 🙂
Persian dogs never drink water.
Longest Reign in History - Mindi 1272-1385, King of Arakan in Burma, was crowned when he was 7 years old and ruled continuously for 106 years.
Many superstitious people in Italy consider the number 13 to be a lucky number and girls wear such talismans to "protect them from evil".
Italians, are you there? Happy Friday the 13th to you 🙂
Death penalty for drunkenness - John Wilson, a soldier in the 84th British regiment in India, was court-martialed for insubordination because, as a drunken man, he refused to take a daily serving of rum. He was sentenced to death and shot. (All this is written on his monument in the cemetery in Bangalore). What else could he do, he refused the order of his superior officer - shooting...
And many more interesting ones...
As attractive as these curiosities is to me, I am still ashamed to leave the table too often and leave company.
That's why I go as rarely as possible, but each time I stay a few minutes longer, until someone opens the toilet door and goes to the urinals to finish their work, but I could bet and read some of these interesting things.
