        I'm confused. Did humans exist before cell phones? I thought they were around for awhile before cell phones.

        Don'y buy into Ryan's narrative. He's trying to make it about cell phones instead of being about health care.

        Really? Is that what it has now come to? Just 20 years back there were no relationships, no friendships? #nottrue

        A cellphone is not a necessity of life. Whatever happened to being old enough that your wants don't hurt you? Take responsibility!
