Well actually it can be a problem to me. I'm in college and people will use these in class all of the time. Not that I care for them but it's hard to pay attention to what the professor is writing or talking about when you have some dimwit in front of you playing random bright and vibrant games or spending their time looking at 10,000 pics of the same 3 poses on facebook. I myself fixed this by moving to the very front of the classes I take but because of how some of my classes are set up, if you sit at the front you can't see the entire board due to podiums or the professor themself in the way.

I also find it a problem with our society. People have quit interacting and devoted all of their time to various BS on the internet. I see groups of "friends" sit at tables and the most they ever say to each other is "did you see __________'s facebook page" followed by either "yeah, that's crazy" or "no, let me check it out". The only people I see interact on my campus are the LARPers and smokers.

Tough life.

I've got bigger things to worry about, son.

Bullshit, you are a government worker. Your big thing is if you got time to play a game on your phone while you are in the shitter at work.

Ergo, I don't give a shit about what anyone else does with their electronic device.

I owe the IRS money and I almost killed a 24 day old baby the other day. I can still hear the mother yelling "you're killing my him" and "do something" ringing in my head. It wasn't my fault (severe latex allergy that a doctor and mother didn't inform me about even though I asked about allergies) but it's not fun watching kids die. I can only think of 2 people on here who can relate to that. What kind of problems do you have?

You win the "your life sucks" award. Is that what you were looking for? My life used to suck, I ended up angry all the time. Fuck that. My life is now awesome, as I sit down and try to decide if I use my phone, tablet or laptop to surf.
