cell phones I think it becomes addictive and they just can't stop.
It's the same on this site which I check every day their are people who just have to comment on just about every comment and I think most of the people who again comment time and time again are just addicted to the site, they have to comment just like a drug addict.

Posting (commenting) is a form of communication. Really great when there is nothing worth watching on TV and activity is somewhat restricted or for whatever reason, including no reason beyond enjoyment. This site is for comments....information, opinions, jokes, etc. Everyone is equally entitled to post or not post, read or not read.
As I stated before, my cell phone is my husband's life-line (mine, too, sometimes). If I
have to take a call in a restaurant, I do excuse myself from the table and step outside. No problem. People who know me, know the situation and those who don't need to reserve their judgment of others until they fill that person's shoes. Besides, I sure don't want my doctor to turn off his phone when one of us might need him and the hospital calls.
