I don't.
However just about everyone I know does.
It makes me smile.

I do sometimes but my son does every time - he literally walks laps round the house when he's on the phone. What bugs me even more is the way he holds the phone in front of his face whilst on speakerphone :laugh:

No ,and I find it annoying when others do.
A guy came into a coffee shop and I don't even remember if stayed , but he kept pacing up and down on the phone .... like he wanted everyone to see .

What you do in the privacy of your own home is up to you :laugh: Hope no-one you ever speak to on the phone reads your comments though - they will all know what you're up too :joker:

Lets not start with you and your fungal infection again. :nono:
I stand by my earlier point that buying used underwear on Gumtree is a bad idea!
What a strange phenomenon ..
If I’m inside , around people , I just sit and chat BUT if I’m outside, alone , for some reason I can’t keep still .. I walk around and even get animated .
I do have adhd so I don’t know if that plays a part ???

I've also noticed more men seem to do this aswell.

Totally agree !!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a woman strutting around whilst talking on the phone .. many do seem to doodle and sometimes doodle frantically in my experience ( I work with a lot of women ) …

I usually just stare at it when it rings.

I have Can't-Sit-Still-Disease at the best of times, it certainly spikes when I'm on the phone.

That reminds me of a daft sketch in a series about 15 years ago .. the one where someone had a catchphrase “ Today I am eating … yo..gurt .
Anyways they did a sketch about a deaf inventor who created a house phone with a light that flashed when someone rang .. clever idea until he picked it up and put it to his ear ..
Seemed real funny at the time ..

Well i used to when i had housephone ~ i actually walked about the whole night twice with friends , one in a mess because someone had died and another with men probs, i never sat down and daylight came... since i had a mobile i've stopped doing it ! and never though once about it until i saw your thread. Very strange and its got me thinking. My partner just now got a call and went straight out of room.
