Talking on your cellphone in a multi-toilet public bathroom is a pretty good indicator that you're probably a jerk.

Unless you are alone an need help getting up and a cell phone is all that links you to returning to normal life and not having to spend the night on the can.

LOL - Voice of experience?? Cred on its way!

It violates the man code.

I think it's an indicator that you're really weird... and not in a 'good way' weird.

Perhaps an after-school special is in order.

I was in a stall at Microsoft once (building 31, for what it matters). Some guy walks in yacking on the phone. From his side of the conversation, it sounded like he was conducting a phone interview for an open position.

He just keeps yacking away as he unzips and unloads 50 gallons of urine right into the water at the bottom of the urinal. No attempt at all to lessen the noise by pissing at an angle to the porcelain. The thrum of it echoed off the tile lining the floor and walls of the bathroom.

I never did figure out who it was, but what a frickin ass!

pfff... what's wrong with that?

Brian: I'm curious. What's "the man code"?

I have a few people where I work that will strike up work related conversations with me in the bathroom. Definitely a violation of "the code."

I imagine "Can you spare a square?" with hand out under the adjoining stall counts for a high jerkitude factor too. I.e., always check that your own stall is adequately supplied before sitting down to business. Or BYOTP.

Buy! Buy! Sell! Plop.
