Sat down at the same time with a family member or friend and you each were going to just sit and scroll on your phone but then they start showing you thier phone and every funny meme and things thier friends say?
That is annoying. Now I am sitting here scrolling through your phone with you. I don't want to do that. Unless its like a mutual quick showing from each person-then that is acceptable.

Have you ever been in the same room with a friend or a family member and you are talking and then you look over at them and they are scrolling on thier phone and they didn't hear a word you said. So then you say something like "10 spiders just walked by" just to see if they are paying attention?

I haven't had a moment alone since Wednesday. I'm getting itchy.

ALL.THE.DAMN.TIME.
Watched wrestling on TV with my friends Friday night at the cigar shop. They played on their phones while I watched the wrestling and tried to talk to them. I left the room to get some air, get my brother a drink, and go to the bathroom in another room. I come back 10-15 minutes later and say were you worried that I was gone for so long? Did you worry where I was? They replied very nonchalantly We figured you were somewhere around here. Like WTF? I could have just left the cigar shop, walked into the middle of the street got hit by a car and been dead for hours before you noticed. Fucking phone zombies.

I have, but it's been awhile. It's rude and disrespectful. I completely understand one checking their messages, I get it, but to be actively engaged in something else is just so fucking rude.
