I hate the way people always have their faces in their phones now....families at dinner, people driving, at restaurants, in movies, walking along, etc. They say phones are allowing people to stay connected. I think they are isolating people into the world of that small screen. My daughter had a family fried go with us this summer when we drove to my dad's house in FL. The two girls spent the entire trip on their phones. Not only did they hardly talk to each other sitting right beside each other, but they also missed everything outside the car windows. Every time I tried to point out something cool to see, they delayed looking up while they finished a text or a video, and by then they had missed it. People are missing the real world with their faces in those things. Long term, I predict that phones will lessen people's ability to interact face to face, the end result being a faster degradation of society than what already exists.
They are in a car being driven by a muppet. After that everything else falls short.
