When Holden Caulfield worries, he doesn't pee!

It's been almost 9-10 years that I read the fantabuous classic Catcher in the Rye (J D Salinger). Since then, I have always been fascinated with the word phony, which is used I don't know how many times in the book! Apart from generally loving the book and the incredible humour in it, I really love the following quote (in bold) from the protagonist Holden Caulfield:

Some things are hard to remember. I'm thinking now of when Stradlater got back from his date with Jane. I mean I can't remember exactly what I was doing when I heard his goddam stupid footsteps coming down the corridor. I probably was still looking out the window, but I swear I can't remember. I was so damn worried, that's why. When I really worry about something, I don't just fool around. I even have to go to the bathroom when I worry about something. Only, I don't go. I'm too worried to go. I don't want to interrupt my worrying to go. If you knew Stradlater, you'd have been worried, too. I'd double-dated with that bastard a couple of times, and I know what I'm talking about. He was unscrupulous. He really was.
