It has literally become a scourge affecting all generations. Speaker cell phones in public places are unbearable torture.
After banning cell phones in class, can we demand that loudspeakers be banned in public places?
Can I talk to your mother?
As long as I listen to you talk about your weekend plans and listen to you share family recipes, can I participate in your conversations, too?
Seriously, I'm interested. Can I ask you if your family eats salmon pie with egg sauce or cheese sauce?
When you go to IGA, can I tell you that the brand you chose is actually not as good as the brand next door?
Those who know me know that it doesn't take half my face to quickly jump into your conversation.
In fact, I always refrain from doing so. My little face appears behind your shoulder. “Hey Colette! Seriously, these tomatoes are so acidic. You deserve better… Bye!”
Don't come and tell me it's none of my business. If it's none of my business, I won't put up with you.
Buy yourself some headphones!
Want to send a text message while chatting? Buy yourself some headphones!
Would you like to Facetime with your girlfriend and show her the scene? Buy yourself some headphones!
Want to hear your device better? Buy yourself some headphones!
And don't come and tell me that “some people don't have the means.”
If you can afford a cell phone and pay to use it… (all together) Buy yourself headphones!
I dream of the return of the awkward whispered conversations we have when we take a call in a restaurant.
What became of good manners?
