Phubbing

I make no secret of my hatred of telephones including landlines.

When I am with people I want to talk to them, not have them buried in those disgusting little rectangles.

There is a term for people being on the telephone while with other people phubbing.

Phone+snubbing=phubbing

However, I had to laugh the other night.

Llara, Rick and I were in the living room of our B&B in Montreal.

Each of us were on our laptops.

Llara and Rick were doing work stuff, I was writing.

Probably not all that different. It just seemed that way.
