Well, I am sorry you hang around with such immature adults. I tend to hang around with people who, while on their phones a good bit, can still have time with conversation, a movie, or TV show, or a meal with no phone and not complain. Or be in a building that has a no phone policy and follow it. Kids today are handed phones at 3 to keep them occupied. It is setting a poor example and precedent. It is leading to adults like your associates.
That would be a dead cat….
