Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 5:09 PM when on the phone with somebody, and you feel the need to go to the bathroom, do you: A. Tell them to hold on a second? or B. Tell them you will call back in a minute? I realize that bring the phone in with you isnt an option, but a friend and I are getting into specifics here. Any feedback would be appreciated. —drewdrop |

Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 5:21 PM Didn't Adam invent the delayed-flush toilet a while back for precisely this issue? Of COURSE you take the phone in, you just leave a present for your Mexican maid to flush! —Santa's Mouth |

Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 5:25 PM I'm talking more about the issue of peeing. With the #2 you get a splash every couple of seconds. With the #1 you have a non-stop stream, which the person would notice. My friend and I were talking about why this kid we know tells people he will call them back, when it takes a solid 30 seconds to be in and out after taking a leak. I'm sure people can wait that long. Calling them back is unnecessary. —drewdrop |

Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 6:07 PM All my friends pee while talking to me. And poo. It doesn't really bother me anymore. I always say "hang on a sec I gotta pee" and leave the phone in another room while I quick take a whizz. —PureChaos414 |

Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 6:22 PM I think one option is to take a couple extra seconds and sit down on the john and aim the stream against the porcelain to muffle it slightly while continuing the conversation. —OneNutAaron |

Edited Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 6:39 PM Aarons got the right idea, but there is no need to sit down. Its a matter of angels. Unless your talking to a girl, it shouldn't be an issue. Don't forget peeing in the sink... :) —barrelofsharks |

Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 8:36 PM I have people who call right before I usually wake up, so I have a full bladder. I either pee in the bathtub or hold my finger over the microphone; I pee pretty quickly. Of course, it helps that it's usually my mom, and she'll go into a monologue fairly regularly. —Dubious Merit |

Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 8:41 PM I've peed while on the phone. If you want to deter the pee sound from being heard, just tilt your head back so the receiver is facing towards the ceiling. Then when you are done, you can just sit on the toilet until you hang up the phone, so you don't leave the room and forget to flush. —mandeemoo22 |

He's saying that you should have said "angles." Your syntax changes the meaning completely, Capt. HookedOnPhonics.
I usually tell them I'll call back in half and hour for a #1.
For a #2, I tell them I'll call them tomorrow. —Dusty TheHick |

Tuesday, April 5, 2005 at 9:00 PM Seriously, women: peeing in the bathtub is the way to go. You just drop trou, sit far back on the edge (legs sticking out of the tub, not into) and let go. Of the urine, that is. You have to balance a little so you don't fall in. But it's quiet and there's no flushing needed. If, like me, you're ambushed with a full bladder by an early morning phone call, you're going to shower in a few minutes anyway. Back when I had a corded phone, I once stooped to peeing into a sour cream container from the recycling bin. —Dubious Merit |

This is unacceptable. I expect your pen and badge to be on my desk by sunrise. My perspective on the issue at hand is this:
Even if you are able to strategically aim your stream of urine against the porcelain, bathrooms produce an unmistakable echo when you speak, and it is certainly audible on the other end of the phone conversation. The solution? Take your leak in the bushes outside your front door. The person you're talking to will never know. —NYBret |

Wednesday, April 6, 2005 at 10:50 PM Enough with the semantics or Hitler will start in on the semetics and someone else (adam?) will probably start on the semenetics.
anyways, I usually just go on the phone, if people hear it they don't ever say anything. and why would they? it's more embarrassing for them than if they just kept their mouths shut. The *real* trick is trying to brush your teeth while on the phone (people always call me as I'm getting ready for bed) Haven't figured that one out, just tell the person to hold on and set the phone down. —thuro |

Thursday, April 7, 2005 at 12:57 AM Am I the only one that thinks this is blown out of proportion? Just take a friggin piss while on the phone. Use your thumb to cover the mouthpiece if you're that worried about them hearing you. As an experiment, next time you're on the phone with a friend try taking a piss with the mouthpiece muffled- I don't think you can hear a damn thing.
I have come to the realization that all of these options are much to difficult. I think the most obvious solution is to don a pair of Depends any time you enter your abode. Now you can drop a deuce or whiz at your mere convenience. Nevermind just talking on the phone, you could eat dinner, watch TV, vacuum, walk the dog; all without the inconvenience of being interrupted by the urge to go. I'm surprised the Vicar hasn't picked up on this. If pissing in the sink is therapeutic, just letting it fly while reclined in a barco-lounger has to be pure euphoria.
I'm sure the short-sighted and uninspired will try to discredit my theory by pointing out that your ass is marinating in a cornucopia of dookey afterwards, but these are minor kinks in the system. Beware these detractors, they have no vision. —Drew, Please |

Thursday, April 7, 2005 at 12:13 PM Usually I do go on the phone with my friends. But when it comes to my friends who are grossed out, and chicks, I gotta tell them to hang on for a second. With the overwhelming feedback, I'm just gonna take a leak while on the phone all the time now. Don't care what their reaction is. Like thuro said, it's more embarrasing for them. —drewdrop |
