What could possibly be that important to talk about? Maybe ok if you were calling 911 cause you're having a heart attack.

As long as I can't hear it, and you don't tell me, then I don't care, but if I figure it out or you tell me, you're getting hung up on. You'd have to be pretty damn special for me to stay on the phone with you during that.

OK

As long as you don't flush the toilet or make other sounds.

If I am on the phone to my daughter I either hand the phone to her step dad or tell her I won't be a minute. Sometimes I ring off and ring back later.

There is NO call that important that I would ever consider taking the phone into the bathroom with me. Some things are better left done in private...

Ick is the obvious answer, however I am guilty of occasionally taking care of business while on hold or in an otherwise important call that I can't just stop and call them back.

Well, it's gross if you're using the bathroom. If you're just standing in the bathroom on the phone, that's different. I do that sometimes since the bathroom is the only place I'll get privacy.

As long as you mute the phone when you pass gas or drop a deuce so they don't hear it. Or at least cough over it ;)

What!!!!????? What the hell kind of subject is this? What kind of question is this? Hey! If you gotto go, you gotta go. Bathroom or not. There is nothing improper or 'yucky' about talking on the phone in the bathroom or anywhere else unless it creates a danger to life...such as while driving. Anybody else with me on feeling that 'the big question' needs to research and presenf some more intelligent and relevant questions?

What's gross about that? I mean if you're on the toilet, it's really not that awesome to hear the other person's faeces descend, but otherwise it should be okay.

I clicked on the other one. And the level of ickyness depends on the person. If it's family or your best friend, that's one thing, but if it's some guy you just met and he calls you while taking a dump? NAY!

or a girl taking a dump, as well.
Or if she farts... that'll kill it, too O.o

Silly Mova, girls don't do that. Sugar and spice and everything nice = girls. Snips and snails and puppy dog tails, followed by a dump & farts = boys. See?
