Default Phones on public transport

Do you feel comfy talking on the phone on the bus or do you wait until you're off?

I don't really like the idea of people listening in to my conversation but I would do it if necessary.

I try not to, it's terribly tedious for other people. I try to use the quiet carriage when I can so I don't have to listen to thirty people take turns to say "I'm on the train".

only if its important and i keep it very short dont like people listening and i dont liek people talking utter rubbish

its great having a phone but phones have killed the art of conversation. you used to chat on a bus or get a smile of a girl walking.now everybody has their head buried in their phone. ignoring the real world around them. shame

i thought it would help vocablery - how wrong i was. this is a conversation i heard from a lady on the bus last night.

ring ring - HELLO - hiya - you alright ? yer like - so what you been doing like ? well been chilling today like. but bit tired like. what you up to ? i like that. thats nice like. wish i was doing it like. you see that nice guy like ? he is well fit like. yer like.


when i got off i said - I LIKE YOUR CONVERSATION. and she only replied - CHEERS LIKE.


moral of the story. phones maybe a great tool but if you have nothing to say - they defeat the object LIKE.

no, I hate people listening to me talk on the phone, I won't answer I ring them back when I get off.

It's annoying when people TALK REALLY LOUDLY as well.

I don't do it personally, I hate when other people do it and I also feel like everybody is listening in to my conversation which I really don't like, even if it is just idle chit chat.

Will usually answer in a thick Mancunian accent with: "Hows it going our kid?" as loud as possible. Then proceed to discuss loudly the plans for the evening.

Nobody has ever looked at me or said a word
