News flash. You are not going to die w/o a cellular phone.
Your dependance on it is all in your head.
You don't have to always be seconds away from talking to everyone you know.
Most people talking on cell phones don't actually have anyting really IMPORTANT to say. Everyone thinks that they do but if they knew the truth they might find what they have to say is really only important to them. Not always, but more often then not.
Most conversations could actually wait until you can actually tell the person you want to talk to in person.
People in the store who can't seem to buy anything before checking with the person who they love. Talk about insecure! Can't remember everything you came to buy? Make an old fashioned list. Probably takes less time then making the call.
I can't begin to count the times I have had close encounters with other drivers who instead of focusing on their driving instead are texting or dialing or conversing with someone they could wait till they got home to talk to.
How about the folks in the next booth at the restaurant who keep talking louder and louder on their cell because you have to do the same to be heard by the people AT YOUR TABLE?! Then they get all bent because you are interfearing with their phone conversation.*sheeez
The Zagat restaurant guide reports that cell phone rudeness is now the number one complaint of diners, and USA Today notes that “fifty-nine percent of people would rather visit the dentist than sit next to someone using a cell phone.”
How many times have you collided into someone who was preoccupied with their phone instead of watching where they are walking?
I’ve listened to strangers discuss in excruciating detail their own and others’ embarrassing medical conditions.
In the past few years alone, men and women have been stabbed, escorted off of airplanes by federal marshals, pepper-sprayed in movie theaters, ejected from concert halls, and deliberately rammed with cars as a result of their bad behavior on their cell phones.
Chaps my hide.
With phones ringing in movies, weddings and classrooms, it's no wonder people want to tone down the intrusion. So what legally can be done to stop annoying cell-phone use?
I do have a cell phone but I don't feel I have to have it. It is conveniant but not required. If on the road I pull over and stop somewhere before using it.
Join the smokers outside the building if you need to shout into your phone. Don't be so rude.
Sorry if this comes across as really harse, guess I got cell issues.
