Regarding the rude phone behavior, it's simply an example of a self-centered person. The same with idiots that hold lengthy cell phone conversations while driving. If it is brought to their attention, they usually will become very hostile. They can't understand that when they inconvenience other people, they are the rude ones.

Now, on to games and gadgets. They are often just used as an escape mechanism. I was never one to really play much with video games, but I did play Tetris long ago. I found that game mesmerizing. When not playing, I still would look at the world as patterns to be filled with falling blocks.

After some time, I realized this was not healthy and felt that the game was syncing with my alpha brainwaves. I stopped playing and will never play it again.
