Maybe it is just me but this shit really annoys me

I get the part about reading by the beach. Not a bad idea, though you should be paying attention to your kid.

The 2nd part really bugs me though. She's having a nice lunch/brunch with her friend and she suddenly ignores her friend while talking to her and wants to tweet or read something. It just seems extremely rude to me. If I'm eating with someone or even just talking, I turn my phone to silent or vibrate.

Then she uses it while camping. It makes us look like technological dependent morons who aren't even close to prepared for a zombie apocolypse. Of course she looks like a stuck up bitch who probably doesn't give her husband anymore becuase of her kid that she ignores.

I guess it bugs me because I'll see it at school a lot. Groups of friends sitting around on their computers and not talking. Why even be friends. At least the LARPers are having fun and interacting with each other.
