@siracusa I didn’t use a cup, but reading this poll made me understand I remain an uncivilized man - and I am committed to the transformation into a better human now

A bathroom cup is uncivilized.

Things for eating shouldn’t be with the toilet.

Get off your lazy ass and get to the kitchen if you need a drink.

Exactly. Anything kept within 6 feet of a toilet gets coated by aerosolized particles with every flush. My toothbrush stays in a closed medicine cabinet and water cup stays on a nightstand.

A bedroom cup is the right answer if you won’t just walk to the kitchen.

@mcpinson @Chuck_ORourke @siracusa luckily my sink is far away from the toilet - and that one is in its own cubicle :-)
