This thread has reaffirmed my belief that it's a bad idea to buy a used cell phone.

I had my wallet fall into the toilet once after taking a dump...It sucked.

cellphone related? years ago i got ericsson t68, after using it for a week, i dropped it to a glass of water becoz i put a glass of water and the cellphone holder on my bedside table, phone rang while i was sleeping, picked it up, done talking, put the phone to the full glass of water accidentally then my finger tip felt wet and i woke up and saw the phone was completely in water. then i took out the battery and let it dry for 2 days, the phone still worked afterwards though.

drunk + peeing + talking on phone = bad consequences

So, you were on the phone with a buddy, taking a piss and felt the urge to vomit after getting wasted. So, to not get it all over yourself you decided it would be a good idea to take a lean forward while pissing, only to vomit into the urinal while pissing on your face now. In pure terror you threw your hands up in disgust only to throw your phone into the unflushed shit-filled toilet?

Yep...it happens more often than people think. I used to think it would never happen to me, until the pager went in.

I've posted it here a few times. My wife had her phone drop out her jacket pocket when she bent over to flush the toilet at a rest stop. She grabbed it just as it was going out of sight. I told her that she was pretty hardcore for the quick action.

It worked after we dried it out.
