PrintableI bet this happens less in Japan.
I read recently that Japanese women are getting sick because they won't use public restrooms during work hours because of a fear of being heard making noises. So the solution has been to pipe in recorded fart & shit sounds so that the real ones won't stand out. Imagine a phone call from that stall! My Legacy

But be careful if you have to go to a public one because some are just a squat hole and there ain't no toilet paper. Always, ALWAYS carry a packet of tissues for emergency stops. | |

Imagine a phone call from that stall! i love the simple fact that they acknowledge the poopy sound neurosis. lord knows i've kept many a kid away from the pool because i've been mortified of the trumpet solos i'm capable of dealing out, and it's even worse in a public bathroom where everything is marble and metal and sound ricochets all over the place. i don't know if pre-recorded fart sounds is the answer (but i'd love that CD for home use, it would be great at dinner parties), but i've always felt a simple white noise machine would be PERFECT for any public bathroom. | |

That way you know to deflect a call if it has that music on in the background. | |

Oh, wait - most guys don't wash their hands. Why should the phone be any different?  Do people use these cell phones to wipe their ass or something? | |

I'm always simultaneously disgusted and amused by that poor guy trying not to make a peep in the stall while I'm washing my hands. I imagine an explosion that occurs the moment I'm out the door.

No poo poo with the talkie talkie. 
Gross. If it's an emergency I guess it's fine, but I think you should have some respect for the person on the other end and not subject them to that.  | |

I've taken calls during work hours, because in the military, you never know how serious the call is until you take it....and my job demands that I can be reached 24/7/365....
....but I never initiate the call....and if y'all are wondering, I have the blackberry that has a toilet paper dispenser and hand cleaner.....so 
...NOOOO, not really..... He was like a cock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow.

phunkdaddy said: That's just one of the man laws.
The only time conversation should take place between men in the rest room is when you are washing your hands. I just had to laugh out loud becuz of this. Man Laws. Wow. That sounded SO Neanderthal, but in a sweet way. Oh, And there IS conversation, but mainly whispered. Words like "Come to my stall" and "harder" are very common in male restrooms. |
