And because we HAVE a cell phone we MUST be available 24/7.  If someone calls you on your cell phone and you don't answer they're offended because they "know" your phone is always with you, so why didn't you take their call?

this thread is great.

I was never going to be one of "those people" that has to have their cell phone with them at all times... but I have become exactly that. In my case, it is actually a requirement of my job. This condition has been compounded by the fact that my present employer frowns upon personal usage on the company liable phone, so I now have 2 phones... and I have to carry them both because EVERYBODY has what is now my personal number, but my new CL phone is what goes out on all of my business communications and is in the company directory. DOH!!!   

We turn on the windshield wipers and run the washer instead of scraping the ice off or warming up the car.

We laugh at the mentally ill.

I think you mean because we have Keith Olberman and Rachel Madcow, er, Maddow!

We have people like those in general.  And we cheer for the ones we like.  Poeple like these, on both sides of the political fence, serve only to polarize all topics and profit from doing so, and in turn contribute to our inability to see each others sides and compromise on important topics that could benefit everyone.

Which leads to another reason we are terrible - we often (sometimes always) only think of and look out for ourselves.

I hate being guilty of these sins.  I am trying though - I stopped watching Olberman and Maddow.  I wish Keith would just go back to ESPN!
