  • Mr I Phone, n. a smartphone

    The Guardian, 16 January 2016:

    I’m not asking for jolly chats over the counter. I don’t feel too jolly in most shops, so shudder to think how the poor staff feel. Just some eye contact, pleases and thank yous would restore my faith in human nature. I’m aware I sound like Prince Charles/the Dowager Countess/my own nan but just fear we’re beginning to prioritise Mr I Phone (his first name’s probably Ian) over our fellow citizens. Couples go out for dinner and spend the entire time with their heads bent in silent supplication to the glowing god. People – of all ages, agreed – choose the bleeping attention-sponge over the friends sitting next to them.
