Was that video supposed to resonate deep inside of me somewhere?
As I post on a Chiefs board, from my sweet-ass laptop and fast internet? I waste more time on this site than I do browsing my phone when I'm out and about. Put the ****ing CP down, people. |

Meh, for the most part I like staying engaged with work and the interesting people I know... not so much with some random person next to me in a public place. You can have as much or as little competing for your attention as you want, so if you don't like someone checking their phone or whatever, maybe you should be more interesting.
![]() Seriously though, I'm not one to randomly check FB or CP while I'm talking with someone and I'll ignore texts if I'm out with people unless there's an appropriate time to do so.... but, the whole "missing out on life" just seems odd to me, like when someone goes into a BB thread during FB season and is all "omg, you're talking about BB!" like football takes 100% of our attention for 5 months. It's nice to disengage from it all every once in a while though. I've noticed those who were the slowest to get a smartphone in fear of being available 24/7 seem to get the most annoyed when I ignore a text for a few hours.

I totally agree.
The worst is when they are driving and there is clear asphalt ahead of them. Or in the movie theater. Or just talking out loud everywhere in person. I don't want to hear your ****ing conversations. |

It's getting ridiculous, but what can we do about it?

The people that get me are parents at sports games that just stare at their phone for the whole game. You can't watch your kid play soccer or baseball for an hour?
