We read the ingredients on shampoo bottles and we liked it!

Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader!

Huh, this vegan dog shampoo has not been tested on animals.

I feel like that's the one product they should test on animals so that my dog doesn't have to be the guinea pig.

We had a little basket thingy with books and magazines. Stuff like Calvin & Hobbes, I Spy books, Popular Science magazines, etc.

We read the backs of shampoo bottles.

Magazine racks. Every home had a small one next to the toilet

Magazines and newspapers.

I wiped with a CD instead.

Our bathroom door has a built-in magazine rack dating back to the 70s. It holds phones pretty well too.

We used to have words printed on paper (the pressed corpses of trees) called books, magazines, and newspapers. They'd bring one of those.

Farmers Almanac. Used to come with a pre-drilled hole for hanging on a hook in the outhouse.

Good ole Reader's Digest.

Dr. Bronner's magic soap label

Magazines, books, reading the backs of products, and sometimes people would even use a mirror or two to watch TV on the shitter.

We'd look through the bathroom window, there was always something funny going on. Such as packs of velociraptors fighting each other, or a mastodon causing wreck on the neighbour's garden.

Spanish people stopped learning greek after smartphones where invented.

series of mirrors displaying the tv in the living room

Hopefully through their buttholes, not through their fingers and mouths.

Take a book with you....or start reading the backs of the cleaning products under the sink

Video game instruction manuals

We didn't have to poop back then. The act of pooping was invented by Larry Smartphone, who also happened to invent the smartphone. They were released together originally as a bundle but everyone has both nowadays anyways and you can mix and match.

Teletype with an acoustic coupler. You place the handset into the rubber cups that block out the sound, so that the modem noises were clear through the phone line.

The perforations in modern toilet paper are an homage to the holes in the punched tape used to feed the teletype pre-recorded instructions.

Well, before phones made social media conveniently available, people largely had to deposit their shit via telephone, written word, or in person.

Kids these days dont even know about disassociating lmao

Magazines and we read the ingredient list of bottles, like bleech.

In recent times, by reading. Before that, i think most people pooped faster than we do due to better digestable foods
