“Smartphones are like cigarettes are like junk food are like chewing your nails or doodling. Right. What do they have in common? Easy. Things we do when we’re bored…Can’t sit idly waiting for the red light? Chew your fingernails until the edges bleed. Commercials got you down? Good you keep a bag of chips handy & a bowl full of M&Ms. Is our conversation too much of me talking & not enough about you? Step outside & have a smoke break in the monotony of our friendship. Does the naked space of your own mind & the world around you send you screaming into oblivion when you walk across campus, across a street even? Pull out your smartphone & check your email again-that car will swerve around you.”
