Question:
What’s the rudest thing someone has done or said on a cell phone in your presence? (Yes, we acknowledge that some of you think the very presence of a cell phone in public is rude.)
 Pete Coode, 40
Loveland
I’m old enough to remember when there were no cell phones. Now a days you will be talking to someone and they will say, ‘Hold on a sec.’ If there is someone in person they are supposed to get priority over the phone. There is nothing so important it can’t wait.
Josh Postolese, 23
Fort Collins
Just not answering the phone or returning messages. That bugs me. People should turn off their phones in movie theaters. It bothers other people, but not me.
 David Himot, 33
Fort Collins
Cell in movies. It’s definitely the most annoying.
Rick Dellinger, 33
Fort Collins
The bluetooth can’t tell if they are talking to me or someone else.
 Jill Dellinger, 33
Fort Collins
People who can’t drive because their talking on the phone. If you see someone not driving well you can almost guarantee they are on the phone. I want that bumper sticker that says, “Hang up and drive.”
Dave Allen, 59
Fort Collins
Oh, driving with a cell phone plugged into your ear. That’s about the worst. I’ve seen women putting on makeup with one hand, coffee in the other, cell phone plugged in and driving with their knee. | Only registered users can write comments.

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)

I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
