Today, while reading in the bath, I accidentally switched the shower on. Not wanting my book to get soaked, I threw it out of the tub. When I got out of the tub later, I found it had landed squarely in the toilet. FML

Well, it looks like your plan to keep your book dry went down the toilet. Literally.

Instead of just turning the shower off again...

Who reads in the tub anymore? On the plus side, at least it wasn't an e-book; your entirely library would have been ruined then rather than just one book. I am wondering how you managed to turn the shower on while sitting in the tub. You have to touch the tub spout (or something higher up) for that to happen. Still, FYL.

You deserved it for reading a book in the tub.

Hey guys, your totally not awkward OP here. Okay, so full story, I was reading a book (Jane Eyre, to be specific) and I was resting my feet on top of the faucet, and somehow, I managed to offset the shower, which was a little pully thing on top it. And my reaction of not wanting to get the book wet, I promptly chucked it out of the tub, where it landed in the toilet. Ironic. The worst part about it that it was a library book.

Well, look on the bright side: You can dry it off and send it back to the Library chute so they don't know you got it wet and don't see you turn in the wet book, or you can dry it off, pay for it, and now you have a copy of Jane Eyre. :D

How do you just toss the book?! When I put a book down I make sure I set it down right, in a place it won't get damaged.

Just another reason to keep the lid closed. Not only does it look better down, it keeps waste particles from spraying out when you flush, and it stops items from falling in.

Why would you leave the lid up? So unsanitary. I'm afraid I don't buy this "pets can get a drink" excuse. In the UK, our pets have a bowl with water in it and they drink from that ;)

Ew, who leaves the seat up? Do you enjoy being showered in your own excrement each time you flush?? You do flush, right???

dude I don't think I've ever closed any the toilet lids in our house and that has never happened. Do you just have a really shallow toilet?
