I was wondering about this the other day after reading some guidance/postcard things which were visual prompts to people to switch of their mobile phones in theatres, meetings etc. because it would spoil their experience.
It was on a website called the art of manliness which is kind of retro and has a clear dislike for cell phones, I dont care too much about cell phones or people using their phones, it can give you a clue sometimes as to whether or not they are really present or not.
Anyway, it made me think about socialising and how a lot of people need or use alcohol as a way to become less socially inhibited and wondered if this was as much a socially constructed thing, people make casual conversations in a bar selling alcoholic beverages, sometimes even if they themselves are not drinking alcohol, but they wouldnt dream of doing it in a cafe, perhaps with a chatty barista but that's the height of it.
I then thought perhaps I was engaging in a bit of extrovert musing, people probably dont go to the cafe with a view to striking up conversations, maybe that would be spoiling their experience of going to a cafe. What do you think?
