He is not alone. A few years back, I had a boss that used to call me and a few other guys that worked for him when he was at the urinal. He had no particular urgent item to discuss, he just wanted to chat or find out what was going on. He also wore the bluetooth wireless on his ear so you could hear pretty much everything he was doing. It was a running joke with us, and we would save the voicemails he'd leave us if we didn't answer the phone with the piss raining in the background, then the flush as he's wrapping up his voicemail message.
My buddy in the Army always calls me from the bathroom. He doesn't even think twice about it, really. It doesn't bother me much, but I don't want to be hearing diarrhea or anything like that.
My brothers and my dad all spend more time in the bathroom during #2's than they have to, and they see me as the odd duck. My youngest brother has spent more than an hour in the can before, doing whatever. I asked them once if they let loose and then relax to wipe up later or if they wipe up first and then relax, but I forgot what they said.

That Mythbusters episode where they showed how "matter" from the toilet gets blasted up out of there when you flush would have been enough to convince me that there's no need for food anywhwere near a bathroom... if I'd have needed convincing of that, that is.

That's exactly why I think folks are weird for even bringing in an open beverage into the bathroom, let alone, drinking it in one.

x4. I can't imagine taking food or a drink in there. There's a room for eating and there's a room for pooping. Keep them seperate.

Man Law.
No, this is more like Woman Law, that a few men would agree with. A woman would NEVER take food or beverage into the bathroom. Some men do and some don't, as evidenced by this thread, so this can't be a Man Law.
