#3. Pick Up A Cool Bathroom Reader
The old staple to keep near the throne is Uncle John’s Perpetually Pleasing Bathroom Reader ($15 for paperback / $10 for Kindle @ Amazon.com). It’s still a good option that’s filled with plenty of interesting and obscure facts and info, urban legends, and brain teasers. But so is How to Drink Snake Blood in Vietnam: And 101 Other Things Every Interesting Man Should Know ($12 paperback / $10 Kindle @ Amazon.com)
The easy-to-read and picture-filled book discusses travel in a way that guys can digest — the best red-light districts, nude beach etiquette, and the international rules for waiting in lines. The Kindle option is cheaper but that means if you have guests they’ll be handling your e-reader with their … hands. You get what we’re saying — stick with the paperback.

#4. Clean Up With Dude Wipes
You’re not as clean as you think after you’re done wiping with tissue paper. Giving a once-over with a flushable wipe like the ones from Dude Wipes ($30 for 100 cloths @ Amazon.com) will keep you feeling cleaner and make your undies happier.
#5. Put Up A Shower Curtain With Personality
We’re not saying you gotta go with a “classy” shower curtain like the pictured Sexy Silhouette Shower Curtain ($50 @ Amazon.com) but something that fits your personality and tells guests something about you and makes the room subtly cooler than the boring muted tones you probably have up there now.
Another cool option: Kikkerland Jaws Shower Curtain ($16 @ Amazon.com). It’s goofy, sure. But a coral reef design on the bathmat and a few nautical trinkets on the counter and you’ve created an atmosphere out of your old toilet den.
