Does your face register "irritation" when people talk on their cell-phones loud enough to disturb others?

I'm sure it does. I also hate when people walk around talking on the phone in stores and don't watch where they are going, or talk on the phone in line at the gas station and it takes them forever to get out their wallets and pay because they only have one hand free. Another thing, when I worked the drive thru window at Burger King was people coming through the drive thru on their cell phones. Most of them weren't even TALKING, but just holding the phone to their ear in an attempt to look engaged so the drive thru window person wouldn't talk to them! Cell phones annoy me in general. I wouldn't have one if it weren't for the fact that I frequently go out with my kids and live miles from anywhere.

OH YES!! I really cant hide emotions if Im mad irritated or whatever YOU WILL KNOW! I normally wouldnt say anything cuz its none of my buisness but..it does annoy me and they will notice!

Yes. Especially on public transportation because you can't get away. I am more upset by people on cell phones while they are driving. I have seen some very poor driving by these people and once was almost run over as I crossed the street by such a person. Its dangerous.

Yes...and occasionally my voice will too. I am not shy about asking someone to please stop talking on their cell phone if it is interfering with another situation/conversation. I do it very politely and for the most part the other person will say "oh sorry" and stop. Occasionally I get a "**** off", but that's rare.

If at all possible, yes. I don't want to hear the phone conversations of others in public settings and most folks talk very loudly on their phones making it impossible for the rest of us to avoid being part of the call. It's really just another form of noise pollution.

Probably. I find it annoying when someone is walking near me on the street and they shout "Hello" or some such, and i do not hear a 'phone ring. I nearly jumped out of my skin when this has happened.

I'll deliberately glare at such offenders. When I'm using noise-blocking earphones and my iPod is turned up to an uncomfortable level and I can STILL hear you from ten feet away, you're being VERY rude.

Yes... especially when they yell-speak a "private" convo with speakerphone.... ugh!!!!!
