Not gonna lie, I want this.
With all the sexuality in today’s pop culture, employers are making it easier to fap in the restroom.
Um, that’s a phone line not an Ethernet jack. =P
Sexy phone calls made sexier by sitting on the can?
Dial-up internet access? Talk about roughing it…
By the time you get connected you’ll already be done with your business(unless you take two or three hours to leave a dump).
It is an Ethernet jack.
Yes, people used to talk on the phone while in the toilet even before there were cell phones. *sigh*
Obviously the connection to the recycling center of the office.
Funny enough, I have a phone jack in my bathroom. I didn’t put it there. It was there when I got here…
I dunno, this isn’t a kludge. If I still had the wires strung I’d show you MY kludge, which was a series of cat5 cables with rj45 ends joined by adapters to run across the ceiling via cup hooks from the router in the dressing room, down the hall, over the transom vent, and across the plumbing pipes in the bathroom ceiling so that I could plug in a laptop from there. I’d set the pc on a step stool beside the tub and internet away while soaking in bubbles. THAT was a bathroom computer kludge! This? It’s actually IN the wall with a proper plate!
thats my sort of kludge
My God. You’re actually proud of that, aren’t you?
Or she thinks this is a recovery group.
But how does that make you feel?
Yeah, I had my whole house wired with ethernet, even in the can and out in the garden, back in 1998! Sure I’m proud! Heheheh But it was pretty kludgy for sure.
My first thought: but what if it fell into tub with you? I’ve listened to a lot of those safety adverts.
I’m glad it didn’t fall in with you!
Not much dangerous would happen, unless the power block with the mains lead fell in as well…
And presumably she runs it from battery anyway.
Yeah, the biggest problem would have been the damage to the laptop but as it never was over the water, but beside the tub, I just had to be careful to keep my hands dry. I still use the laptop in the tub, but have wifi now. it’s so much more convenient.
Indeed, that’s not much of a kludge.
Everything’s done by the book — the wires are in the wall, the plate is screwed in properly, the wallpaper conceals any plaster work on the wall, and no duct tape seems to be involved — it just seems a little out of place for the layman.
To be honest, I was actually thinking about doing something similar at home…
A true multi-task office.
Not a kludge. Telephones in the bathroom in upscale houses used to be very common. The idea wasn’t that you could talk and poo at the same time, the phone was only there so you could hear the ringer.
That’s just a typical phone jack in a hotel bathroom. Many hotels have phones in the bathroom as a safety measure.
Hey, I’ve run out of toilet paper. Could you fax me something?
I’ll fax you the TP(S) report.
Sure – here’s the monthly payroll report.
I am SO not working on his laptop!
Probably for old folks. My wife’s grandpa has one in his bathroom at assisted living. Knock it off the hook and they send the calvary.
When staying with a disabled friend in a handicapped accessible hotel room, they had phones in the bathroom, just in case someone with limited abilities needed help. Not so much a kludge.
“Help, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!!”
Don’t worry, Apple has an app for that.
Here’s the whole story behind all of this:
I was in a robotics competition in Portland, OR in the first week of March 2010. It was the FIRST NW Robotics compeition and we had to stay in a hotel overnight, a Marriot as far as I remember. So into the bathroom I go in, and I see this ethernet port right next to the toilet (by the way, snookie’s comment earlier made me LOL). This ethernet port was probably built in to the wall a long time ago, because the hotel did have WiFi.
Want to get in touch with fun and exciting people who have something in common with what you’re doing right now? Tired of sitting on your throne just thinkin’ and stinkin’ with no one to talk to? Well, you don’t have to drop the kids off at the pool alone anymore! You can be a part of the nation’s hottest potty line! Dial 1-800-LIGHT-A-MATCH from your bathroom phone line right now!!
I mean, heck, if Elvis had one of those, he might still be alive, today!
I always knew telemarketers spewed crap from both ends… I just didn’t know it was at the same time…
You just won.
The reception in there is crap
Now you can log on while you log off.
I’m thinking that someone is finally getting hooked up with Google TiSP
Don’t have Wi-Fi where you Chatroulette? We have the setup just for you.

Ethernet or phone jack it’s only there for one purpose and that’s [in borat's voice] SEXY TIME!!
Gosh I sure hope that phone has a mute button!
it does look like a port for an RJ45. But someone commented that this was common in the 90′s and I will second that fact. The biggest builders (home) in the country did it in all homes over 400k.
Three KluDgeS here. 1 is that it’s upside down! It’ll get ruined that way. 2 is that bathroom phones should be wall phones. 3 That is a network jack.
When I settle down, I don’t get up for ANYBODY !
Remember the good ole days when people used to read books or magazines on the crapper? Now you have to crap and twit about crapping in these multi-tasking times.
