Man, oh man. It slipped out of my pocket and into the toilet. And here I thought I was one of the only people. I felt bad for the Verizon people who disassembled it in their store...I failed to mention that it was wet because it had an encounter with my PEE!!! :oops:

No, but this one time...
About two years ago, my office was flooded when the toilet overflowed. The plumber came to check out the problem. He found numerous pens, a pager, and a cell phone. :o

Hmmmm, wonder why the toilet over flowed?

I know three girls that have all done this, one episode lead to our group being separated and not making it to the game that night because we couldnt find each other because the only phone they had brought was the toliet one.

This is definately a girl problem more than a guy problem since most of the time this happens in public bathrooms where guys stand the majority of the time with their phones in their front pocket but the girls are sitting with their phones in their backpockets or on the toliet paper holder

Actually, now that you ask...
Just last night I was on the phone with a certain BNer (from Chi-town who shall remain nameless :P ) while driving back home and I stopped at a truck stop to take a leak, the urinals had auto-flushers so I didnt make a sound as I shot that scented cake with all I had... she never knew till after the fact :lol:

IF I see you in the USA and need to borrow a phone - please remind me of this thread and who has responded to having their cell phones in the toilet with them and I will go use a pay phone :o

There are just some things that you should NOT take in there with you :)

:lol: :lol: :lol: When hubby and I were "courting" (i.e. talking on the phone when I lived in MN and he lived in CO), he used to take me with him to the convenience store to buy ice cream when he was on the phone. He would tease me because I never could find any Ben and Jerry's in the town where I lived.

I'm sure he took me to the potty too...I just didn't ask. He could prolly tell ya all the places he took me on the phone. :roll: :roll: 8) :wench:

Thanks for all of the replies! A co-worker of mine has lost 2 phones in toilets... and one in a bucket of drywall mud! He must need to modify his technique!

On a similar note, there's a guy that grew up by me who I don't think has ever "worked"... he somehow supports himself by digging up "treasures", and selling them... he has said the most bountiful dig sites are out-houses! Besides treasures, he finds lot of cash too!

And one final thought - how funny would it be to discard a cell phone or pager that you plan to cancel into a port-o-pot or outhouse, and call it when you see people going in to use it? I think it would be hysterical to see their reactions when they come out, or if anyone's nuts enough to try to dig it out!!!

I apologize if I've ophicially grossed anyone out! :D

I have not but about 2 years ago the family was on vacation in Ocean City, MD for a couple of day and my little keet who was about 2 months short of her 2nd birthday decided that my cell phone should go in the toilet. She was walking around carrying it talking on it and next thing I know she was in the bathroom and the phone went for a swim.
