A PSA on Cell Phone Etiquette

Nothing annoys me more than someone who doesn't use their cell phone to it's full potential. When I say this I mean:

1. Answering someone when they txt you.
When someone asks you a direct question have the common courtesy to answer it in a timely fashion.
2. Quit blaming your lack of manners on cell phone reception! You know you are just being rude!
3. Gentlemen (and I use that term loosely here)- The cell phone can be used for more than just sexting, downloading porn, and sending ridiculous pictures that are funny to no one but you!
4. If you would rather not speak to someone let them know that INSTEAD of hitting your "ignore" button and sending them straight to voice mail EVERY time they call. You may think this will get the point across but it's rude and avoidance isn't going to solve anything because CLEARLY that person will just call again!!
5. If you are going to set a ring tone for each person in your phone then try not to make it insulting just in case that person happens to hear it someday. Even if it is an inside joke to only you!
6. Gentlemen- Another rule of thumb, don't break up with people over txt. Seriously!
7. Get off the damn phone while you are in a check out line. Self explanatory!
8. Not everyone cares about your conversation so keep it down!
9. When it says "Please turn off all cell phones" in a theater, that's what it means.
10. If you have more apps on your phone than you have phone numbers than you clearly have too much time on your hands and need a hobby.
