Anyone ever played that game where everyone at the table puts their mobile face down in the middle, and first one to touch their phone pays the bill?

I’ve heard of people playing that game, I think it is funny!

Any time I’m with someone else, even if we’re just hanging out and not at dinner, i put my phone on silent and pretend it doesn’t exist. I keep it out of sight, too. I only check it if they leave the room or if I am in the bathroom. When others talk on the phone or text while they are supposedly spending time with me, I feel totally not valued. Like they think others are more important than me. I don’t want to make anyone else feel that way, hence my no-phone protocol.

This game is potentially an expensive way to teach good cell phone etiquette!

In my humble opinion they show there true value by not being considerate towards the feelings of the company they keep.
