    I once had someone keep talking on a video call as they took a piss. It was not only audible but incredibly loud.

      A friend of mine once attended a university lecture where the prof briefly ducked out to the loo… and neglected to turn off their wireless microphone, which was still connected to the classroom speakers.

        goddamnit this appeared elsewhere as well but it reminds me of my favourite episode of masameer county.

        “what about your cousin? he married a european woman but his genes are so strong all his kids look like monkeys. 'Grandpa! Grandpa! We love bananas! We don’t know why!”

        while it blares into the function hall the two recently reconciliated families are dining in.

      I not only mute but say something that invites a reaction on the way to the bathroom to make sure that it is indeed muted.

      We usually just do audio in our meetings, but I always leave my headphones in my office if I have to go to the bathroom. I don’t care if I’m muted or not.
