On the phone in the bathroom:

[Robb]

Poll question: On the phone in the bathroom:

"Hey, did I just hear you flush the toilet?"

"Maybe." :D

[Misunderestimator]

1. That's what the Mute button is for...

I love my mute button. :)

[SW FL Dem]

20. I don't have a mute button n/t

[Magrittes Pipe]

2. What else am I going to do while pooping?

:shrug:

[GOPisEvil]

3. Never done it.

I've heard guys in the stall next to me on their cell phones before. It was disconcerting.

There was also this one guy who used the restroom as his escape to play his game boy. :eyes:

[Misunderestimator]

8. Well, a public restroom is entirely different...

Nope.... wouldn't do that.

[daligirrl]

21. Ummm. . .

Sometimes I do that. .. is it so wrong?

[Rabrrrrrr]

4. Absolutely not. It's rude and uncourteous.

[Robb]

7. Hey!

Uncurl them toes there, sparky! :P

[Rabrrrrrr]

10. I can't help it! They curl automatically, and get locked in place

:D

[Robb]

12. I'm so cool

...you could store a side of beef in me for a month! :D

[Rabrrrrrr]

13. Absolutely!!

With no doubt whatsoever!

[King Of Paperboys]

5. I do it all the time

But I'm careful never to let anyone know. ;)

[eyesroll]

6. Never.

I answered a cell call once (while on a business trip) from the sink/mirror area of the women's restroom at a convention center. But never from the toilet stall, and never while actually using the toilet.

I lack the coordination.

[parasim]

9. Wouldn't even think of it

Not only do I consider it rude, I don't think I'd be able to put that phone up against the side of my face again... gross!

[dolo amber]

11. All the time

But I generally am polite enough to give them notice..."Hey, I'm taking you into pee with me, k?"

:D

[Interrobang]

14. Guilty.

I just don't usually flush until after I'm off the phone, unless there are, uh, extenuating circumstances.

[puerco-bellies]

15. Once dropped my cell in the urinal.

I had just bought it and it was (then) a top of the line unit, doubling as a modem for my laptop. A potential client on the other end and knew I dropped it but not where. It was a very important call so I held it as far from my face as I could to complete the call.
Truly a sales-dog moment
P-B

[HEyHEY]

16. haha...

Yup, one that!

"Why is your end so echoey?"

[LDS Jock]

17. Nope

think its tacky

[geniph]

18. That's one of the few things I'm prissy about

I think carrying on a conversation with someone who's eliminating, or while engaged in said act oneself, is disgusting and tacky. Can't people go five fucking minutes without jabbering? The only place I carry a cell phone at all is at work (because I'm required to carry it there) and it does NOT go into the toilet with me. Anyone desperate to reach me can just wait a couple of minutes.

I do not understand this current need to be forever talking on the telephone. What on earth do people have to talk about for 24 fucking hours of the day, anyway?

[SW FL Dem]

22. but what if you are talking to a friend who needs you and you have to pee?

They are in the middle of a crisis and you can't hold it any longer. Been there more than once, I wouldn't start a conversation in the bathroom, but I have peed quietly while listening in an emergency.

[Rabrrrrrr]

24. Ya just say "Excuse me, but I need to use the bathroom"

Or if it's a good friend, and you're comfy with it, you can just say "Mind if I pee while you talk?"

That I *have* done with people I'm quite close with, and that's okay. But it's uncouth to just go ahead and make pee (or poop) sounds without announcing it beforehand.

But, for a guy anyway, it's easy to pee quiety by sitting on the toilet.

[northzax]

19. telephone?

hell I'm posting this from the pot right now! You thought people invented WiFi so you could work from your sofa?

[jus_the_facts]

23. LMAO this reminds me of Patrick Stewart on SNL....*sexy cakes*.......

.....I've sexed it up for you...absolutely! :7
