Apart from watching the thick **** getting taught a lesson, I find it as funny as **** that everyone just keeps on filming while it's having a deserved snack and don't try to help him at all. <laugh>

Mobile phones do seem to have taken over people's lives
This example is extreme but you see please walking down the street while staring at their phones - I'm sure you never saw people reading a book while walking down the street

Or at least if you did they were considered really weird. Funny old world ain't it.

Be interested to hear what other people think, but I've never heard this from an East Riding native; nor can I imagine it in the North Riding. So, is this purely West Riding? Where do the boundaries lay? Anyone with any ideas?

Also, interesting how this gets projected as a whole Yorkshire thing.
