No joke. I just came back from a Dr appt, and this idiot was walking to the parking garage. He almost walked into a glass window. He got on the elevator, still texting.
I punched the button for my level, and asked him for his. No answer, but after the door closed, he punched another level. The door opened for his level, and he stood there texting away. Dumb@$$.
And with cell phones at least, the conversation almost always seems to be on some dopey unimportant topic, such as “did you watch Oprah yesterday?”. I imagine it’s the same with texting.
