We hear about the wussification of America. How about the infantilization of America? We've become so incapable of enjoying paid entertainment that we have to have Teacher take our phones away and put them in her desk. We can pick them up at the end of the school year.

I am too, but it's still vexing that it's had to come to this, and with the help of "a San Francisco-based startup company," at that.

He's been like this for a while. When I saw him in 2013 the event staff was all over you if you took your phone out during his set.

This is a great idea. The phone people at performances are the worst. They should be ejected from the venue and shot.

I can only imagine now.
