To the person who wrote the hilarious cell phone in a public
restroom story this morning. I have to tell you it was one of the funniest I have ever read. I was laughing so hard that tears were running down my face. I bookmarked it to show it to my husband, but when I tried to retrieve it, it had been removed. Do you think it would be possible for you to send it to me via e-mail? I sure would appreciate it. Thanks!:rofl:

1. That sounds interesting.
I must have missed it, but I'd like to read it too.

2. I thought it was some of the best writing I have read
in a long time. I was laughing out loud.

Wonder why they pulled it? I was going to respond and it was gone.

5. wasn't this was it?
I had barely sat down when I heard a voice from the other bathroom stall saying, "How are you?" I don't know what got into me, but I answered, somewhat embarrassed, "Doin' just fine." And the other person said, "So what are you up to?" (What kind of a question is that?)

At that point, I was thinking, "This is too bizarre," so I said, "Uh, I'm like you — just traveling." At this point I was just trying to get out as fast as I could when I heard another question. "Can I come over?" O.K., this question was just too weird for me, but I figured I could just be polite and end the conversation. I answered: "No. I'm a little busy right now."

Then I heard the person say, nervously: "Listen, I'll have to call you back. There's an idiot in the next stall who keeps answering all my questions."

or was it the really really gross one

13. that's funny!
that reminds me of true story a Radio DJ told years ago...

He was in line at an ATM Machine (the old ones that had the screen you had
to tilt to see at your height)

There was an old lady in front of him trying to get cash..she put
her card in and then stood there, and stood there, and stood there..
finally she said to the ATM Machine "50 dollars please"

(this technology is probably around the corner or here by now though)

6. That happened to me the other day!
I work at a university, and I went to use the bathroom in the library, and the woman in the stall next to me was having a cell phone conversation while she was taking a crap!

"Can you believe that?"

SFX: Plop, plop

"No, I told him!"

SFX: Plop, plop.

I hope somebody revives this so I can read it!

10. yeah, that's an old funny joke
But I have to confess. Sometimes while at work, I'll be already talking on my cell phone and I have to #1, so I continue the conversation. But I make sure that I am already talking as I enter the RR in case someone was in there. And then if not, and someone comes in after me, I make sure I am talking so they know that I wasn't talking to them.

When you gotta go, you gotta go. :)

11. If you gotta go then go!
But I'm sure Miss Manners would say that talking to someone on the phone while relieving yourself is just plain rude.

Normally I'm not a stickler for etiquette, but I don't want to talk to anyone taking a dump. On my part I sure as hell won't be carrying on a conversation while engaged in what I believe is the most personal of activities. (I'd never make it in prison. Hell, I don't even know how I made it through four years in the Army.) I very much like my privacy at that moment. I believe I'd sooner have someone catch me polishing the rod than walk in while I'm moving my bowels.

12. Yeah, I think it's rude too.
But the only time I did that was when I was chatting with my bf. He would say it was rude too, but I didn't care. :) I definitely wasn't taking a dump...only tinkling.:)
