Is it cool?: Calling on the phone

Ever since smartphones came out, everyone has been really insecure with their phones. Mostly because things have gotten very personal on smartphones because there's so much to do on them.

But I still enjoy talking on the phone, because I think I look cool doing it. But when other people see me talking on the phone, they think I'm talking to someone who's telling me something really important.

"My son, huh?"
You know, that kind of situation where your mom is calling you to tell you to come to the front office or something like that. But it's usually me just talking to a friend. And I feel really cool doing it too. Like I'm talking to the president, laughing and everything. It definitely looks cooler than me making weird smiles at the screen and trying not to laugh. But then I think about me being that one obnoxious guy on the bus who laughs and screams through the phone. I don't want to be that guy. Or the guy who touches and plays with everything when on the phone. This includes the wall, people's desk toys, and people, while walking around.
I think older people have no problem doing this, just people my age, younger who have a hard time trying to talk on the phone. The next step is trying to find someone who will actually have a conversation with you on the phone, besides grandma.

So, is it cool? Yeah, it's cool.
