telecommuting 

The ability to find yourself fully surrounded by incompetent idiots while working from the comfort of your own home.
I may be working in my pj's, but through the magic of telecommuting, I'm still stuck dealing with these morons all day.

Telecoprolism 

The statistically anomalous tendency for the telephone to ring while you are having a shit. Extensive studies have shown that the phone of any individual has, at any given time, a 500% higher chance of ringing while its owner is evacuating his/her bowels than during other common everyday tasks such as masturbation, hoovering and chimping. Some schools of thought consider telecoprolism to be a subset of the Sod's Law principle. The others don't really consider such issues to be a worthy use of academic time and resources.
I was just settling down for my morning log and got telecoprolised by the bank again. Bloody telecoprolism, eh?

Telecoitus 

Sexting, Phone Sex, Cybersex, sending dirty pictures, or any form of sexual expression facilitated by modern technology.
My girlfriend lives 450 miles away, so we're mostly limited to telecoitus.
