Laugh

There is a guy watching something really funny on his phone. I only know it's funny because he is randomly erupting into belly laughs. Loud, boisterous knee-slappers.

I have heard that when someone laughs, they make the people around them feel better. This makes it so stand-up comedians turn their audience into a kind of group therapy.  Food for thought there.

The lady next to me apparently is being stalked by someone who won't stop calling. She doesn't want to decline the call because the person will know she is actively avoiding them.  So she let's the call roll to voicemail after a six or eight play-throughs of her digital bubbling ringtone.

We have all done this.

Where she gets irritating is that her phone ringer is on and turned up. This means her phone is just ringing and ringing and ringing. I think my last glare may have worked as it hasn't rang out loud since.

Or perhaps the caller gave up for now, satisfied that she is just not available.
