Phone Addicts

Many people have pet peeves, or things that annoy them senseless. I have so many but my biggest is something that is more addicting than heroin and that millions over use. I hate it when people are on their stupid phone all the time. Don’t kids and adults have better things to do?

One time I was hanging out with my friend, if you could call it that, and all he was doing was texting. He didn’t even pay attention to what I was saying. I’ve also seen people who are a foot away from each other and texting. It’s not like they're missing vocal cords, they can talk.I So many people are on it every second they get. Is this really what our lives are coming to?

I have a phone,and I seriously don’t get what is so amazing about. Sure it helps you keep in touch but do you really need to text or call when your going to see them the next day? And many people don’t realize this, but it injures 300,000 people and 2,600 #die because of calling or texting while driving each year. That’s about a quarter who live in Bedminster. Do you really want to be one of those dead people?

Phones also mess with your mind. When you don’t have you could become sad or easily angered. People also have the annoying habit of putting # in front of everything they say. That’s #stupid. People also get bad grades because they don’t work as hard because of phones. Do you really want to put on your college application you have over 300 instagram followers?

One of the most annoying parts of people being hooked on their phones has a song about it. Selfies. I just don’t get what’s so good about taking really stupid pictures of your self. When ever my sister takes one it gets on to my phone. I don’t really want to see that. And what’s the point anyway? To put them on instagram, a social network that we will all forget in a few years?

I don’t know how many times I’ve said this, phones aren’t that great. I mean they hurt thousands every year, they kill your mind, they make you oblivious to what’s happening around you, and make people take dumb old selfies. I think they should just be for emergencies or to check on people you haven’t seen in a while. Phones really annoy me. Even when I was 2 years old, my dad never payed attention to me when he was on his phone, so in the middle on a conversation with my uncle, I grabbed his phone and flushed down the toilet. As you can see, phones drive me crazy. How about you?
