I vaguely remember getting along without them just fine, and now it seems like so many people can't have even ONE TINY THOUGHT that can't go unbroadcasted to 3-4 people via cell.Whiskeymariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16680444919622976790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4108424773793973906.post-1011994606960696242008-06-16T07:16:00.000-07:002008-06-16T07:16:00.000-07:00I can't stand that, and I also can't stand for any...I can't stand that, and I also can't stand for anyone to overhear my conversations, which is why I stay off the phone in public. If I do have to make or take a call, it's as quick and quiet as possible. My favorite is the people where I work, who go into the (shared) kitchen and stand in the corner talking on their cell phones, then they turn and glare at you for being in the room when they're trying to have a private conversation. I could seriously get rid of my cell phone and not miss it.
