Well as said previously, cell phone users aren't the only ones delaying lines. We have dumbasses that take forever to write checks, find wallets, etc., people having their own conversations and not noticing when the cashier is done, and people just staring into space. I'm sick of people bitching about cell phones and all the obligatory 'if their life is sooo busy...' responses. We are talking about delays on the order of a few seconds here, nothing worth wasting your hate over.
/not directed right at you Cynthetiq (or anyone else btw), just using your post as an example of the general feelings in the thread
