Well I occasionally do, like last night for example.
I was with 4 of my friends, and at one point, all conversation ceased, and they were all on their smart phones, either on facebook, or playing an online app. I don't have a smart phone, so I was stuck there twiddling my thumbs. This lasted for about 20 minutes or so before I decided to leave because I was so bored. This isn't the first time something like this has happened.
I take that back--- I just want smart phones to not be able to access the internet.

I've never had a smart phone (or any kind) but that seems rather rude.

It is. But we had been hanging out for a little while before it happened. But I guess no one knew what else to talk about. I'm experiencing first hand, what direction society is going in. People turning into mindless drones who can't go 5 minutes without taking a look at their phone.

Sometimes. Women are better experienced in real life, which is what I'll be doing tonight.

Your signature and avatar are very unfunny.

Generally for me, the internet fills the void better than real life does.

You guys need some women in your lives. Not even necessarily a relationship.
