Why would you have your phone on a formal dining table? NEVER!

Someone has never been taught table manners and respect for others!

This isn't for real; it's a joke. 🙄

It is a joke. Not real. No one is brining a phone to my dining table.

Sad but true. Anyone who did that would not be invited back again. And it may be a "joke" but I have no doubt that it happens. Cell phone addiction.

Holiday's or not everyone will have their cell phone stuck up their rears as usual. Mine is always sitting on my desk with no volume. The grandchildren always want to play games on it?

Parents suing the game makers for addicting their children. It's the parents fault they let them play the games THEY buy for them?

@On It Thanks for the laugh! But, sadly it is too true. My children and some of my GC play Clash of Clans. When they finally get together at the holidays, they are sitting IN THE SAME ROOM and are on their phones/devices and playing the game WITH EACH OTHER!!! It's just crazy. Fortunately, we can usually lure them away with table games or some good food.

Humor is out of fashion now. People don't know it when they see it. Sad sad state of the world.

No phones allowed at my table, period.

It is hilarious!....Way too complicated for me and the phone....REALLY? I don't think of a phone as lending itself to formality.

ETA: never mind..I see it's a joke but I can imagine some who like those little details while still needing a modern upgrade like a phone.

@RedTop This post reminded me of the Christmas several of our grandchildren (in their 20's) and one of their wives all brought their phones to the table. DH looked at them and said in a firm voice..."Let's turn the phones off". Since then there have been no phones at the table!
