Round about 17 years old I said enough!
That's what answering machines are for!
Remember that?That feeling of autonomy?
Reclaim it!
Just because a phone is ringing does not mean it needs to be answered!Aren't you paying for call display/call waiting/etc?
USE IT!!
Don't be a lickspittle to your phone-it's supposed to be serving YOU!!!!

If i can hear wierd noises coming from the other end, rather than fume silently (or come to post my comments on webpages such as this one) i tell the other person ill call them back or to call me at a better time. I am not shy, yet i voice my opinion with diplomacy, not rudely. As for the whole camera thing, what difference does it make if its a camera phone or a camera? The person would have to place the phone underneath the stall and take the picture (so its not like you wouldnt see it) and how do you have anymore control over a phone camera then if they placed a real camera under the stall? You dont, so the whole camera issue is not valid, besides you can hear the phone camera click, so its not like you dont know. But im wondering how many people actually do it, everyone i know thinks its terible manners and most people here think so too...so who are these people talking while sitting on the crapper. I am aware they exist but i not convinced its the majority of people. Dont fret, manners still exist (despite the pessimism of many)</p> I think it is tacky talking on the phone while using the bathroom but who am I to complain about it?
