Cell Phones and Social Grace

         Charles Fisher’s purpose in writing “Cell Phones and Social Grace” was to share his
opinion with the readers; cell phones have utterly destroyed social grace with society. I very much agree with Fisher’s essay. I wouldn’t want to hear someone else’s marital problems while shopping at the grocery store, or while I’m eating out with my family. For instance, I was on a family vacation going camping; you would think being in the forest that people won’t be blabbing away on their cells. So, I was eating some amazing burnt marshmallows, and my thirteen year old niece’s cell went off very loudly. This loud cell phone pulled me away from my burnt gooey friend. She then started talking about one of her friends, and how bored she was here.
       I do agree with most of his opinions, except one fact. It sounds as if he feels that once you get a cell phone, you become socially disruptive. I have a smart phone and I don’t do half of what he said people do. I never text or talk while I’m driving my car, and I hate talking in public; it’s rude and I know other people can hear me. However, I do have to say that cell phones can be the ultimate social weapon of destruction. Literally in some cases.
