Ok here's my thing.
I get like A BAZILLION emails a day to my blackberry, and LITERALLY the ONLY TIME I can answer them is when I'm in the bathroom at work, in my own
little stall...kind of like a personal office.
And yes, if my phone rings I will answer it, because its usually very important and I HATE voicemail. "Hi, this is so-and-so, I just called and you
didn't answer, gimmie a call back"
I KNOW WHO YOU ARE I HAVE CALLER ID.
Sigh.
Its a very important time...my bathroom time.

I've heard something interesting in a public toilet once too.
I was sitting there (enough information already).
And the guy in the cubicle next to me is talking to someone on the phone.
He must have been talking to his wife or a.... acquaintance of some form, perhaps even a Doctor, hopefully?
I can't recall everything but it went like this.
"ow, it's itchy"
-Person on the other end of the phone responds.
"I did put some on it"
- person responds
"Like.. half the bloody tube, hold on.. I got something in my teeth"
-Toilet flushes and he leave-
There was only 2 cubicles in this toilet, and there was a person lined up outside my cubicle and the.. cream guy left before me leaving a nice vacant
possibly STD infected toilet.
2 things that aren't so appealing.
Perhaps it's just my almost perverted mind but, gross!

Public washrooms aren't my favorite place to go anyway. I would rather there was a loud fan and some music in there anyway. Most people these days
are annoying with their cell phones somewhere. I was in a waiting room the other day and a sign clearly said to turn off your cell phone. Some woman
ignored it and kept getting calls.
I threw mine out the car window many years ago along with my pager. I think it's bizarre seeing news clips of third world countries with them on
their cell phones. I suppose it won't matter much when the Borg take over, than we'll all be connected.

All I do is pull out the phone and play solitaire on it while on the throne lol

The thing that I find funny is that so many people don't seem to mind talking to someone on the phone that is taking a dump. Here's what I do when
I happen to call someone and they're on the toilet.
Me: "It's all echoey. Where are you?"
Dumper: "Oh, nowhere, it's fine, I can talk."
A moment of silence.
Me: "Are you.... are you taking a dump?"
Dumper (slightly embarrased): "Uh, yeah. Sorry. I'm almost done."
CLICK!
Best course of action for all concerned, I reckon.
