Jamie Reidy rants against an increasingly common breach of men’s room etiquette.
I’m not even sure there is such a thing as “men’s room etiquette.” I mean, aside from Don’t Piss in The Sink.
But there needs to be a new addition: Holster Your Phone.
WTF is up with dudes talking on their phones or checking emails/texts while urinating?! It’s an iPhone, not a uPhone.
Nothing is that important. And, unless you’re starring in one of those ubiquitous commercials for slow stream meds, how much tinkle time are we talking about here, 90 seconds tops? Unzip, pee, zip up, wash hands, dry. Boom! You’re out the door and back to sending your precious “Where u at” texts.
I’d love to see real video of a douchebag dropping his iPhone in the urinal. Quite possibly nothing could make me happier. Tough to fix; there’s definitely not an app for that.

Apparently, it happened to Dane Cook. (Only, the professional cameraman who shot this video stopped recording just when the comedian is about to get to the good part.)
Let’s start a national movement against PWP – Phoning While Pissing. Instead of the Tea Party, we’ll be the Pee Party!
Who’s with me?

“I’m not even sure there is such a thing as “men’s room etiquette.” I mean, aside from Don’t Piss in The Sink.”
That and don’t take pictures of friends in the john.
8Ball, yeah my buddy will be pissed – no pun intended – when he sees it. Guess we’ll find out if he reads my blog!
Ah, YES, that is important, Greg!
There is such a thing a men’s room etiquette – as my twelve year old son was recently informed by a total stranger when he chose to take the urinal closest to the stranger (others were open). I think the actual words were – “c’mon little man – give some space when you can”.
I think using the phone while seated lends itself to more, uh, hygienic issues.
Joanna, I took the pic to prove the point! Knew I had a blog when I saw that dude.
cuz, you know, thats not creepy at all…
Jamie. The photo? You took it? I’m concerned.
How about when seated? I know several women who have dropped them INto the toilet.
