I know for a fact.
I went to the library the other day, and two groups of teenagers walked by outside while I was sitting on the bench. A group of four, then a group of six. Every single one of them was typing on their cellphones. Then the group of six walked back by later, and they were still doing it. Why I was sitting on a bench so long watching teenagers walk by? That's my business.
Then the other day, I was at some guy's house, and his sister went to take a shower. She came out wet a minute or two later wearing a robe, with the water still running in the bathroom, and said she forgot her cellphone in her room. I wondered why she needed her cellphone in the shower. Was she going to turn it on vibrate and stick it up her ass while she scrubbed herself? I tried to call her but it just kept ringing.
When I go out to eat, I see people on dates sending text messages the whole time. They talk to each other, but they never stop typing while they're doing it.
The last time I was on a date, and this was over a year ago, the girl was on the phone the whole time. With her boyfriend no less.
When I use someone's phone to talk to girls, I get messages saying they're in class. And they send me lots of messages from class. College and high school. Why high school girls are sending me messages, that's my business. But why do they have their phones in class? Why do they have their phones on in class? I haven't been to the movies in a long time, but the last time I did when it got dark in the room, I sure enough saw cellphones lit up for rows and rows in front of me. And at concerts. And the girl at the grocery counter. And the doctor would be typing on her cellphone the whole time the last time I went to a therapist.
I've been riding in cars with people for decades. And people always got to where they were going with little or no trouble. Now, people have to look up directions on their phones to go almost anywhere. They have to look up directions to places they've been dozens of times before. And you used to could listen to music in the car. Now you have to listen to people talk on their goddamned cellphones.
"In the car, on my way to WalMart." "I'm at WalMart." "I'm in the parking lot, getting ready to leave WalMart." "I'm on my way home right now." "Well, I just pulled up in the driveway." And they go inside, and they don't have anything to say to the person that they were talking to on the phone the whole time. So they call someone else...
