I mean after. The floor works if it’s clean, but that’s not always the case.
Of course I use my smartphone while pooping.
Yes, but only at work. Bathroom breaks are the only breaks I get, so I use them to check my text messages and sometimes pop over to facebook if I’m following something that’s going on there.
That’s interesting to me that it doesn’t take 20 minutes for all people.
It doesn’t all come out at once from me. Some does, but then I gotta sit there until the next batch is ready to leave the oven. It simply isn’t there to push out yet.
Pocket of my pants when I’m at work, bathroom counter when at home.
Does waiting longer until the whole batch is good and ready work?
Sometimes that works for me. I can’t tell you how many times I finished, wiped, did up my pants, started to wash my hands, then felt an encore coming on.
What’s more frustrating is when there’s one last little bit that won’t come out. It can take what seems like 10-15 minutes for that to happen. This never happens when I have nowhere in particular to go. It always happens 2 minutes before an important meeting.
I haven’t really noticed that to help for me.
Yeah, it’s a lot easier than working it out with a pencil.
I’m dropping a deuce right now so I just voted Yes.
ahhh scientific research.

Not a phone per se, but I frequently use my iPod Touch while on the throne.
I said yes but this really should have been a multi choice poll because I also do not poop because I am a pretty girl.
I’m only doing the business for a couple minutes, but will sometimes take my phone with anyway and check email or something for those couple of minutes. I only do that at home, though, and use the sink counter to place the phone while cleaning up, or the top of the toilet tank. I don’t use the phone at work or public restrooms.
I voted before knowing if this was an anonymous poll. I wanted my name to show up in the list of pretty girls.
Shit, yes! 
Hasn’t thishappened to those that have one?
I don’t have a Smart phone but I have a Nook Color. And yes, I surf the web while poopin’.
When I was growing up in West Texas, I was told, but never attepted to go verify it, that often in the Old West, a cowboy would accidentally drop his gun down the hole in the outhouse and would just leave it there rather dig through all that shit, assuming it was even close enough to reach. Supposedly, a few intrepid archaeologists have recovered some of these artifacts. Makes me wonder about the hazards of wielding an expensive smartphone near a shit-filled toilet.
I think a lot of the dropping into toilets (of phones!) happens when falling out of pockets. I only use my phone at home: Place phone on sink counter–drop trou–lift lid and sit–pick up phone–proceed with various activities–put down phone–finish up-- stand and close lid–raise trou and flush–wash hands–retrieve phone and go about the day. Note how I’m very careful about the phone’s accessibility to being dropped into open water. Plus it has a silicone case so it’s much more difficult to be accidentally knocked off a counter. That comes in very handy while it sits on my desk at work.
I’m also a girl, so I’m not really pooping while all this is going on…
I never got a smart phone. I got a PDA back in the day, foolishly believing the phone was an addin card. But, like any other portable electronic gadget, I have no problem using it while on the pot.
I do have a problem talking on the phone while using a public restroom, though. Breaking the quietness with a horrible echo, and breaking the unwritten male restroom rules? Ugh.
I am forever encountering men who stand at the urinals with cellphone in one hand and pecker in the other. Guess it’s good to be ambidextrous.
