    The health risks of taking your phone to the bathroom...

    Toilet time: Is your mobile device affecting how long you're in the bathroom? Experts reveal health risks. Spending more than 10 minutes on the toilet may pose risks like hemorrhoids, constipation: Medical professionals weigh in


    Medical experts are sounding the alarm on the unfavorable effects that long bathroom visits have on the body, and it appears that mobile devices might be causing prolonged rest stops.

    Two separate cell phone habit surveys suggest that seven in 10 Americans use the bathroom while using their phones. A NordVPN survey from March 2022 said 70.8% of Americans admit to using their smartphones while on the toilet, according to a report the global virtual private network company published.

    I heard a business friend of mine, flush the urinal once while talking to me.
    I told him to never talk to me again with his d** in his hand.

    But bathroom stalls in airports often seem to serve as phone booths.

    I can't imagine it. Those things have cameras and are recording your every move.
    We are all brothers and sisters in humanity. We are all made from the same dust of stars. We cannot be separated because all life is interconnected.

    If they could smell through the phone they'd never risk spying on me again.
