Talking on a cell phone while in a public restroom..



..is just plain gross if you ask me. Especially when the person is "doing the deed" during the conversation. I work with people who do their personal business call (Dr's appts..etc while sitting on the toilet peeing or whatever) Unless it's the hotline calling to tell you that the organ you're waiting for is available, I believe that a phone call can wait until you've finished doing your business.

I have actually answered someone whom I thought was talking to me from the next stall. She says, in a holier than thou bitchy voice, "I wasn't talking to you" . I said "I'm sorry I am the only other one in here, I didn't realize you were doing your business while doing your business"

If I remember correctly, isn't the bathroom a private place? People just don't realize (or don't care) that other people in the bathroom might have shy bladder or bowels and for them to be talking on the phone makes this worse. What if you are constipated and grunt and groan hoping to go, or worse yet, just came back from a Mexican restaurant Not to mention the germ factor is a major ewwwwwwwww

Who knows what kind of germs are on the phone that you bring with you and touch everyday just because you bring it to the toilet? What if you drop it in the toilet? Or worse yet a porta potty.

Really... it can wait.

I have to admit to continuing a phone conversation in the bathroom (only #1!). Not in public, though, only at home!

Commercial Hate said...

hahaha that is hilarious. Just yesterday this dude was having a full meeting while taking a smash in the gym toilet. It was the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in my life. He must have been in there for at least 15 minutes talking and smashing.

ReformingGeek said...

Amen! Leave the phone outside folks or I will make puking or pooping noisew while you're talking on your phone in the next stall.

darsden said...

Hey I totally agree...as of yesterday...Rest asure.. Walmartians...will be on their cell phone in Missisissippi, sharing a totally crappy story and stinky one!

darsden said...

how come this section changes I can't get them to go through...so now I am only adding I agree...should have seen what I wrote the first time

Shawn said...

I hate people who come into the public restroom and are just loud for no reason. They belly up to the urinal and start making all these...sounds...I don't get it. Really loud throat clearing. "Ohhhhh!" Burp. WTF, dude, shut up.

Douglas said...

You should go to the men's room. All social rules are suspended while you're in there. It's considered perfectly normal for two men to stand side-by-side, penises in hand, and farting while talking about the kids. Worse still are the ones who will actually grunt while they're talking on the phone.

Quirkyloon said...

Ha ha!

I think you should have had a "conversation" with yourself. Hey if she can have one, why can't you?

(in a very loud voice so "her" phone buddy can hear too-bwahaha)

Dizzie, "Dang it stinks in here. Somebody must have diarrhea? Oh, my tampon is soaked!"

Then start making raspberries to simulate farting noises.

That'll learn her!

I always handle those public talkers in lines and sitting on toilets by answering all their questions. Then when they tell me they are on the phone, I look at it like I just stepped out of a time machine from the 1800's.

dizz said...

yep.. but it is my life every day at work sigh

dizz said...

i agree.. at home its different, and only with a friend or family member

dizz said...

Taking a smash! I love it. But yep thats disgusting

dizz said...

ooooooooooh good idea! I just might try that. Thanks!

dizz said...

LMAO

dizz said...

I thought.. as men.. the noises were a requirement?? No? .. huh

dizz said...

LOL!!! I just might do that next time!!

dizz said...

Hilarious! Yet another great tip.. you guys are awesome!

dizz said...

That is a look I can easily manage.. that look is on my face 24/7

ettarose said...

I agree with the noise thing. I would have grunted loud enough to cause hemorrhoids! As far as germs, oh you have no idea. Even if they wash their hands they then pick up the phone they were holding as they wiped their nasty ol' ass. Puh leez

blognut said...

I'll pee while talking on the phone at home, but I wouldn't dream of bringing my phone into a public restroom!

Unfinished Rambler said...

Hey, I see you have this JS-Kit/Comment Luv thing too. For some reason, mine isn't showing up though on CommentLuv, plus two places for URL. Just thought I'd let you know.

Second, as for your post itself, totally agree. It's like WTF, folks? It's bad enough you talk in a restaurant or while you're in line at the checkout, but in the bathroom...you've really gone too far.

dizz said...

I know it.. as soon as the poopie plops.. fecal matter goes everywhere! BLECH! People have no sense!

dizz said...

Yeah.. I seant commentluv an email on the issue. I am waiting for them to get back to me. I swear I did everything right, hell I even watched the 10 minute video. Thanks for letting me know though ;)

The rudeness of taling in checkout line WHILE you are "interacting" with the cashier bugs the batshit out of me. It's respect and I just want to slap the shit outta people when they do it.

Everything about the bathroom creeps me out. I like pretending that people really don't even need to do their business. Funny stuff in your blog!

And I voted for you!
