    What the **** is up with people walking around with Facetime on with another person just sitting there on the other side? The actual talking seems to be pretty minimal. It's like a weird codependence thing.

    Anyone else notice this trend the past few years? I see it more and more when I go to shop somewhere.

    Few steps away from normalizing the gimp suit in public.

    You don't use cable but you actually go shopping in stores.

    Breh...online shopping and delivery is the path to living Wall-E. Plus, there's no chance you end up on WorldstarHipHop.

    I always attributed it to some sort of insecurity.

    On speaker and dropping F bombs every other word, don’t forget. I don’t get it either. It’s like they have no social sense and I don’t understand how you can be so oblivious

    Well, we do delivery. But there are things I don't trust delivery on, like eggs, that need to be picked up in person. Sam's gets the vast majority of my foot traffic, along with occasional hardware store runs.

    I have noticed this and I hate it, people will do this at restaurants too. This is the evolution from people on bluetooth earpieces talking way too damn loud in public.
