Cell Phone Etiquette

We take pride in our deference. We are many things lewd, vile, without conscience, etc., but common courtesy is rarely ever lost on us. Our phone manners are unparalleled and being equipped with an arsenal of compliments regarding female dress, hair and shoes, rare is the mother who does not like us. (That is unless the mother is a single-mother who we've dated.)

Anyhow on a recent trip to the men's restroom we noticed that a man was chatting on his cell phone, conducting what sounded like a business call, while sitting in the first stall. How is this acceptable behavior? It's incredibly disrespectful to whomever he was talking to. We don't call anyone unless we can give them our undivided attention and try to make an effort to speak in private so as not to disturb others.

So to teach "The Shit Talker" (clever, no?) a lesson, we flushed all four urinals in quick succession. The next words out of his mouth were both predictable and priceless, "No I'm not the bathroom!!!"
