Clearly, there exists a【10】between our reported cellphone behavior and our actual behavior.
Cellphone users—that is to say, most of us—are【11】instigators and victims of this form of conversational panhandling, and it【12】a cumulatively negative effect on social space. As the sociologist Erving Gotfman observed in another【13】, there is something deeply disturbing about people who are "【14】contact” in social situations because they are blatantly refusing to【15】to the norms of their immediate environment.

Listeners don’t always passively【18】this situation: in recent years, people have been pepper-sprayed in movie theaters,【19】from concert halls and deliberately rammed with cars as a result of 【20】behavior on their cellphones.
