In Singapore, at the movies or even formal music concerts, like the symphony orchestra, the audience is full of people doing who knows what on their mobile phones throughout the entire event. It is so obnoxious. Best thing that&#x27;s improved in my life since leaving Southeast Asia is being around people who aren&#x27;t so intimately attached all the time with their silly phones. Even at a nice restaurant there, the table next to you is often a middle-aged couple watching a whole movie on their phone together -- speakers fully turned up.
