There are several ways to make an outgoing call on a cell phone; there are just as many ways to accidentally make a call. One method is called "pocket dial" or "butt dial". Have you ever accidentally called someone you wished you hadn't of?

I used to walk with my son's teacher and somehow i dialed home. I put the phone in my front pocket of a levi jacket. On the way home, my friend said, "Why is your breast calling your name?" (It was my ex shouting my name as he thought i intentionally called). If you have any funny accidental call stories, would you share? Yes
