Just sitting here at the airport people watching. Moving sidewalk right in front of me.

In last 30 minutes have seen 3 people staring at their phones trip and fall because they dont see end of walkway coming up.

You can bet the same shite causes many car wrecks.

Thanks for reading my dear diary entry for today.

Subtle brag Im waiting on my Southwest flight to leave.

This feels like a "Slippy States the Obvious" type of thread

i really think we've gone too far

the generation who is like 20-25 is probably completely warped and a near lost generation. i think social media usage is much lower in the following generation

I see people staring at their phones while walking up and down subway stairs everyday.

why do you care? Is their phone usage personally impacting you? Mind your own business.

Glad you mentioned that.

How the frick do people travel with 5 kids under 5? Have seen several families of this size.

The parents look like zombies.

It's even worse if you pay attention to the amount of people doing it while driving.

Given my own stupid and unproductive addiction to my cell phone, I don’t know how I’m ever going to feel ok about buying my kids their first phone.

I wouldn’t buy them cigarettes. Why give them this?
