Ever make a phone call from crapper?  I know you have> But just because you can, doesn’t mean you should! Read on.

You may think that no one will notice that you’re calling from the toilet but they do and it makes you look like a turd!

Despite your best efforts to mask the sounds, there are still gonna come through.

First, there is a distinct echo called the bathroom echo. It sounds like your calling from an empty room, which everyone knows is unlikely.

Second, your voice changes when you’re on the toilet. Whether you’re actually straining or not, your voice will sound strained.

Third, if the person even thinks you might be calling from the toilet, it will conjure up a nasty image that you may not want them to have. Protect your image and take the call later.

If those aren’t good enough reasons, think how you’re going to retrieve your phone if it falls. Not to mention, that it happens so often that most cell phone insurance companies don’t cover it any more. Maybe that’s one of the reasons its hard to get the stats, people claim theirs fell in the sewer.

Guys, stop the crap!  You’re not fooling anybody by not flushing the toilet, there are other ways to tell that you’re calling from the throne!
