I do not know maybe it is just me but I get really annoyed when I am with people who are contently on their cell phones, playing games, texting, surfing the net. Sometimes I really want to scream at them OH COME ON I AM RIGHT HERE PUT THAT THING DOWN AND TALK TO ME! My whole family gets together once a year at Christmas time, and last year there were 3 of them playing on their phones instead of visiting with relatives that might not be with us next year. We are all getting older and we have already lost 3 of the older generation.
Now today my niece is going to take me to the doctors and just like my other niece that took me yesterday she will have her nose buried in her phone. What ever happened to the days when people talked on phones and wrote letters and played games with each other instead of a machine? I fear the day will come when people will lose their voices and grow bigger thumbs. I reallllllly think it would be a good idea to have one day a year where all the internet functions on the cell phones would go down and the texting. The only thing I would leave active on that day if i could make it happen is the ability to make ACTUAL phone calls in case of an emergency. I just wonder how many people would be twitching from withdraw at the end of the day lol I had a neighbor that would actually text her boyfriend from the other side of the sofa. Seriously they would both be on the sofa and they would be texting each other. How does that make sense when you are on the same piece of furniture in the same house?
