Introducing our new game called:
“Don’t Be A Dick During Meals With Friends.”
The first person to crack and look at their phone picks up the check.
Our (initial) purpose of the game was to get everyone off the phones free from twitter/fb/texting and to encourage conversations.
Rules:
1) The game starts after everyone has ordered.
2) Everybody places their phone on the table face down.
3) The first person to flip over their phone loses the game.
4) Loser of the game pays for the bill.
5) If the bill comes before anyone has flipped over their phone everybody is declared a winner and pays for their own meal.
Variations/house rules:
-Starting the game after everyone is seated.
-In the rare event that multiple people flip their phones simultaneously, the bill is split between said players.
- Feel free to invoke penalties/strikes systems.
Notes:
- No touching or messing with anybody else’s phones.
- You don’t have to stack the phones. This was done for picture taking purposes.
- I realize I should perhaps think of a different name for this awesome game. Because I don’t mean to imply that everyone who checks their phone during meals is a di*k.
- I recommend not being such a stickler or hardass on people about the rules and even initiation of the game. Basic premise is to just get people open to the idea of staying active and attentive to one another. But if someone has to take a call; they have to take a call =).
- Have fun! It’s really more of a fun concept in this new age high tech life of ours. Conversation is the spice of life.
As much as I disagree with the douchebag notion that everyone else’s digital connections should just be ignored because of the aforementioned dbag’s presence, this “game” is really pretty cool. If three or more people are getting together for a meal together for 40 minutes or so and one is not invested enough in the situation to remain present with the others for the entire time, maybe it was a bad choice on their part to even be there, right? So, they can learn to make better choices by paying for lunch… brilliant!
I know people who leave their phones in the car while in meetings or at lunch. Of course, if you come back to a smashed car window, you probably modify that plan, but it says a lot about the character of the person who can wait an hour to get in the next word digitally.

I’m freaking out.
When I went to bed my charger was completely intact. I woke up and the it’s plastic casing was missing.
My ghost is starting to get annoying.

A lot of people seem kind of excited that iOS 5 now gives alternate Routes on Google maps in iPhone. It’s great to have alternate routes drawn out, but I really wish they would allow me to rename routes 1-2-3 to A-B-C because in my area, as you can see in the screen capture from my trusty “old” iPhone 4, an actual “Route 1” exists (which is actually THE Route 1, spanning every city and town on the east coast from Maine to Miami). Alternate route “1” and Route “1” are all over the map!
There are also a very heavily traveled “Route 2” and a “Route 3” nearby, so these route alternative flags may become confusing in some situations. This Route X factor must exist in many areas, so a simple toggle or some easy method of setting the preference for route option display from Apple / Google would be helpful.
Oh, and why is there no “Maps” in settings on iPhone? Everything else has settings. Maybe this would be a good place (route) to start, Apple!
