22 Tweets You’ll Love If You're Obsessed With Your Phone

Our phones can feel like an extension of ourselves. They have become permanent appendages, not only because we rarely put them down, but because we depend on them for so much now.

Text, email, memes, games, music, GIFs, GPS, every social media app known to man… it’s all available at our fingertips. We love having instant access to what is happening in the world.

And most of our friends and family are on social media. We love being able to socialize from the comfort of our living rooms, and we really love not having to put on a bra.

So our families might complain that we’re obsessed with our phones, but we know that it’s just our way of feeling connected to the rest of the world, without having to make eye contact. And luckily there are lots of people on Twitter who love their phones as much as we do.

It’s a blessing and a curse to have this amount of tech available to us. It’s important to find a balance and look up and enjoy the real world sometimes. But you’ll never take my phone until you pry it from my cold, dead, badly carpal-tunneled hands.
