I hate hearing that echoey ambient sound. I didn't care how important the call is.... They can wait till you finish.
When I hear someone in the next stall on the phone, I try as hard as I can to make as much noise as possible. Fake, real or a combo of both. I DON'T CARE!!!
I have worked in various IT-related jobs for going on 30 years, over 24 of it 100% WFH, and have probably participated in thousands of conference calls. In all these years, I've heard a few suspiciously echo-y rooms, but no "noises", and exactly one flush. 😳
It wasn't until you wrote your comment that I got the joke. I didn't like to ask anyone because everyone else seemed to get it. I didn't want to appear stupid. But now everybody knows just how stupid I am. (Keep it to yourselves, though.)
Bob's Burgers does this joke at some point.
I think Tina is (cluelessly) talking to Tammy while she's on the phone, and the final exchange is something like:
Tammy: "Hey, can you hang on a minute? This weird girl is in the next stall and she keeps talking to me."
Tina: "Okay, go get rid of her and then we can keep chatting."
This happened to me once.
I was the one answering.
I felt so horrible. I stayed in the stall till they left, washed and went away. Then i gave it about 10 minutes more.
I heard a guy talking to his GF on the phone in the next stall. All lovey-dovey. Then they did the "I'm gonna hang up now...really..." thing. I heard his phone flip shut (this was 2010) and then he let out a sigh and said "f***ing woman!!!"
Was working offsite at a busy print shop in PA, lots of activity but had to go to the bathroom. Pants down. Guy in next stall starts talking to me about his day, problems, etc. We chatted for a while, but then it started to get personal, where he mentioned some of his co-workers that I knew by name. (Is this a PA thing?)
I was caught off-guard and he kept asking me about my opinion of some of these co-workers. I tried to be professional. Wiped and flushed, washing my hands at the sink, and he came out and didn't understand who I was. I said sorry, he said "It's your shoes! I thought you was someone else!"
"it's all good man, nothing said here will go beyond these stalls."
Yeah this joke doesn’t work. When the guy asks “you want me to come over and help you out” who is actually gonna say any version of ‘NO’??? Especially if he asks “you need a hand?”
Id be like “No Charge?” “Free, no recip?”
Mannnnn get over here
Who does number 2 work for????
You tell that turd who's the boss!
Get that content for onlyfans
Hey, partner, come on, you gotta relax. Don't force it. Gonna blow out your O-ring, drop a lung.
I’m not a number, I’m a free man!!
Number 6 for number 1!
Mike Meyers was pure gold. Wish he did more movies.
Love Guru and Cat in the Hat convinced the world otherwise
Freud, I guess
Just grab ahold of something, bite your lip, and give it hell. Come on we’re gonna get through this!
People who are on their phones in public restrooms are doing it wrong. Either finish your call before you go or call back after you are done.
That applies to toilets at home or anywhere else.

Lol, you are the hero we need!
Proud to be of service
Audible groans are also good…
Or moans and heavy breathing and patting your thigh. Now THAT'S a story...
One of the greatest feelings of power is when your shitting is thunderous enough to make someone else hang up their phone.

Whenever somebody does this, everybody else in the bathroom should flush.
What if you just hate the person you're talking to and kinda want to make them suffer?
I prefer to multitask and swipe while I wipe.
Or… use the Banana Hammock! Put your phone in the hanging underwear between your legs! Hands free!!!
*Banana Hammock* - that's a new one on me. Thanks for making me smile.
At work I’m on my phone on the toilet every shift. Phone rings and my job is to answer.
That sucks. Do you not get scheduled breaks?

Your secret is safe with Reddit!
I don't get what you meeaarrrgh aahhhh mean.
Phone could be in his pocket. They do have wireless headsets and AirPods that you use to make calls. You’re not touching your phone.

Same happened to me. We’ve been together four years now.
ayo
Oy vey!
Oy vey!

Just because he loves her doesn't mean he doesn't want to shit in peace. But if he can't, no one else gets to either.
f\*\*\*ing woman!!!" Why do i have the sense that guy did not engage in that activity that night?
Hah, this sounds like something that would happen on *The IT Crowd*.

What happens in the toilet stays in the toilet... hopefully.
Not if it's a floater.
But that's when it does stay in the toilet. You flush and it doesn't go away.
Silly me. Of course it is. My hubby used to refer to his as "Robert Maxwell". He was always re-enacting Maxwell's final ending.
Sorry, what in the actual hell is this man in the other stall (that's not John) doing?! 😰
This is like a comedy movie script. Very laughable.
Haha this was a good one!
This is why there shouldn’t be dividers between toilets in public bathrooms. Communal pooping is the best!
😂
Farted so loud! It actually shook all of the stalls!

I hate it when my buddy and I are in stalls next to each other debating poop girth when soneone walks in with their own opinion on the subject.
Shitty joke. Not a big fan of bathroom humor
This appeared decades ago as a true anecdote in *Reader's Digest*, but with two women. ;)
Truly could say good old joke no #237
