Absolutely! It's like the person who goes around fanning the air and complaining when they see someone smoking a cigarette 20ft away.

Unfortunately, there are however still a few people who, even in confined spaces, will talk five times as loud on their phone as they would to someone next to them.

Yes, that's true. It's often easy enough to move away from the noise.

Yes... That's why I used the term 'psychopathology.' I think getting upset that someone is speaking on the phone extremely abnormal. But then, in these High-Stress times, some people will always find something to get upset about, so perhaps you're correct... maybe it has become 'normal.'

No, not everyone. Many of us just ignore it. It makes life so much more peaceful.
