I see people just blabbing away on their phone. I don't mean this as demeaning as in they are intelligent people (see I was nice). The ones that kill me on people on the phone fumbling around at a cash register, often not actually talking just sitting their with a phone in their ear. Jesus. Put it down and focus on what you are doing.

and I call them and tell them that while they're standing in line at the cash register.

Given they can't talk and control a shopping cart, is there any question why they can't drive either?

Other people have other apps.
Apps, apps, apps. It's hard to keep up with the young people and I don't try very hard.

(17,984 posts)The people talking on their phones while they're out at the park. I take my dog out to the park, and there will always be someone blabbing away on their phone. If I'm not paying attention, I think they are talking to me. Mind you, I will take my phone with me to the park (sometimes) so I can take pictures. But being on your phone the whole time kind of defeats the purpose of going to the park.

(205,330 posts)I see them at the checkout, in the produce section, picking up a prescription ahead of me at the pharmacy - I had a close call last week with a woman walking her dog who crossed the street right in front of me - in the dark and the rain! What is that important??
