News item: White House press secretary Robert Gibbs confiscates reporter's ringing cellphone during press conference.
I wish I could do that in check-out lines--and other similarly "no-need-for-a-cellphone-conversation-here" zones.
I would confiscate every cellphone from every person who was self-indulgently yammering in enclosed public places, especially from rude assholes who don't have the courtesy to hang the damn thing up while conducting face-to-face business with a cashier. The need to describe inane minutiae in excruciating detail to an equally vacuous bore on the other end of the signal while treating a check-out person like an inanimate ATM machine would result in immediate relinquishing of the offender's precious l'il cellphone. It would then be violently stomped on the sidewalk until destroyed.
Then they could have it back.
If that makes me the Cellphone Nazi, then NO CONNECTIVITY FOR YOU!

Any time a cellphone rings, an angel loses its wings...or in many courtrooms, the miscreant goes to jail without the cellphone. Any time a cellphone rings in a movie theatre, I wish I had a watergun loaded with vinegar to shoot the bum. So for a change, I agree with Gibbs.
The rude, selfcentered, narcissistic bastards ought to be tossed out on their tuchases.
