The dunny decisions
BIG decisions concerning finance, defence, court outcomes and property settlements are made each day by people using their phones while in the toilet. I read this week about the Canadian politician who dialled into a Zoom meeting from a toilet cubicle. Instead of being praised for accomplishing two jobs at the one time and saving taxpayers time and money, he was rebuked for bringing politics into disrepute (as if that’s possible). But, it shows the toilet cubicle is now the destination of choice when it comes to big decisions.
A recent survey found 93 per cent of “young people” use their phone on the toilet. Reminds me of a Townsville
ABC presenter I once heard say he’d just experienced “the longest seven minutes of my life” after forgetting to take his phone to the toilet.
DID YOU HEAR THE ONE ABOUT?
FUNNY Bone: Irish priest Father O’malley was driving home via a back road when he was pulled over by the local constabulary. The copper smells wine on Father’s breath and spots an empty bottle of vino on the floor of the car.
“Have you been drinking by any chance, Father?”
“No, only water my son. Only water,” says Father O’malley.
“Then why do I smell wine?” Asks the copper looking sideways at the wine bottle.
“Good Lord, I don’t believe it,” exclaims Father O’malley, looking at the bottle. “He’s done it again.”
