I’ve heard people in public restrooms using their phones while using the facilities.

There is nothing more rude and obnoxious, IMO.

“I’m old. What is “butt dialing”?”

Butt dialing is more politely called pocket dialing. It is when a phone is in your pocket and the redial button is accidently pressed.

True. Many keyboards, monitors, towers, laptops, smartphones, and notepads have been destroyed with a HT, NP, BB, HC, MO or other lib photo posted at just the right time. It’s bad for the stomach but good for the economy.

Ever time I start thinking about upgrading my "dumb phone" I read something like this and decide against it.

Really people?

If you don’t think you’ll get addicted to having the internet in your pocket at all times, it’s a great tool. I used to wish I had access to certain information when I was out and about. Now I anyways do.

Immediate Access anywhere to so much knowledge can literally save your life one day.

Who cares what some idiots do with it?

There was a Dilbert strip where the robot at the conference table turns its TV face over to Wally whose face appears as he says, “Greetings, mere mortal carbon units, I’m speaking to you from the third stall in the men’s room”.

The boss grimly observes, “This is what happens when our technology outpaces our etiquette!”

Meanwhile the Wally screen face is visibly straining.

And how many men are texting.

Heck, I won't answer my cell phone when driving, much less text.
