Dear Queenie,
I have attended events where people were too busy on their cell phones to pay attention to what is going on around them.
Queenie, why do they go if they are not interested enough in the event to turn off or at least ignore their phones?—Cell phone Etty Ket
Dear Etty Ket,
Sometimes someone will try to please someone else by going to an event they are not interested in. However, it is rude of them to do anything that might distract those around them who are there to enjoy the event.
It would be a good idea for whoever is organising an event to request that all electronic devices be turned off before the event starts, out of respect for any performers and for whoever is putting on the event. I just wish they would do so, and that people would abide by the request.
