This was a topic asked of me by a long-time friend. "Why would a person be chatting with his buddy on his cellphone while proceeding to wipe his ass after doing #2??" I had to laugh.

At work, there are employees who walk around talking on their (personal) cell phones outside and inside the building. The conversation follows them everywhere: often times, I'll hear them yapping away quietly, while sittin' in their stall of stink. Why, why, why do people do that? Can a conversation be that interesting that you'd want to take it with you to the toilet? And do they honestly think people can't hear the echoic acoustics of their porcelain environment? And then the dead giveaway: the flush!

I just don't get it.
