Hmmm. I call shenanigans. It's a bit too convenient that it's filmed, isn't it?

i thought about that too...but i still like seeing cell phones smashed, so who cares!

Oh don't get me wrong, I love it!

Yeah, why else would the camera have trained on the guy with the phone instead of the professor? If it would have been an emergency, he should have been grabbing his stuff and hauling butt out of class, instead of sitting there talking. I'm with 614 here, that was enormously satisfying.

Staged!

Staged or not it would make a good public warning film ;)

Hahahaha. You know I don't understand why professors don't just tell their students to turn their phones off at the beginning of each class.

I actually had a professor (differential equations) whose cell phone would go off while he was lecturing. He'd then proceed to take his phone out, hang up the call, and pronounce to the class that the guy calling him was "an asshole, I told him not to call me while I was in class!" But he wouldn't turn the phone off, so like five minutes later he'd get another call.

Seriously, people need to learn that phones can be turned off, and we don't need them all the time. Emergencies are one thing (and the only reason I have a cell phone), but, for real, can't we go like ten minutes without a damn telephone? I mean, people were able to exist before cell phones...

Uh, isn't this why the vibrate function was invented?

No - the vibrate function is for something completely different, but won't get in to that right now...

i will NEVER have a cell phone....GOD willing
