My last year in school they band wearing baseball caps inside, but pager’s, and cell phones ringing during class was alright.
Personally I think anyone (like my better half’s best friend) who allows a kid (16yrs or younger /not having a job to pay the bill themselves) to own a phone needs a slap in the head, not to mention allowing said kid to take it to school.
The world has become so fuggen obsessed with being available I can’t count the times I’ve walked into a public rest room only to hear some idiot yapping away while taking a dump.
Just try and go to a restaurant and enjoy a nice relaxing diner with out hearing some fuggen obnoxious tone coming from someone’s purse or pocket, as they feel their so damn important they MUST be available 24/7/365.
As for the kid in PE class, his phone would have been duct taped to the wall and bating practice begun with a $10 bounty for who ever could nail the thing with a line drive
Of any invention in the last 100 years I honestly feel humanity could do with out, Cell phones have my vote.
I HATE THE FU@KEN THINGS
Half the time I forward mine to the better half in case new clients need to get in touch with me, other wise, the contractors I deal with have to actually get off their fat lazy ass and come talk to me face to face.
It’s mighty surprising how little I ever get into arguments with people face to face as opposed to cell phone calls.
