Life PUT YOUR F***ING PHONE DOWN! - Page 3

**gblowfish** · 01-06-2014, 04:04 PM

I really like this. I think a lot of people, young and old alike, miss the simple pleasure of life because they're slaves to the damn phones. Just put the phone away and see the joys of life that are around you. You're paying attention to the wrong thing!

I went to a dinner party not long ago, the host handed out everybody a nice steak and then said stop! And pulled out his phone and took a pic and immediately posted it on facebook.

This shit has gone too far.

who cares, soon we will be going to court by web internet it's coming

If I am looking at my phone more than you its probably because you stink. How about trying to earn my attention by practicing some better anecdotes rather than trying to shame me over the fact that you are a dullard.

Road rage cards from tshirthell are about the same thing, just more variety. Not sure if they still sell them though.

This definitely reminds me of this:

If it's not going on social media, it apparently doesn't count anymore.

I do find it funny when they have live concerts on TV, and it looks like half the crowd is watching it through their phones as they are recording it.

**Rausch** · 01-07-2014, 10:11 AM

Never had a cell phone and never will...

This is about texting and driving, but it is pretty powerful. And I'm a big fan of Werner Herzog and heard him talking about it NPR.

It's about a minute and a half, but there is a longer version.

Looked around and saw all these people yelling at each other about being on their ****ing phones and being assholes to each other. I left and found a bar where there were fewer bitches. I doubt anyone noticed.
