I often find it's young teenagers glued to their phones. Adults often are busy.

Not in my experience. From Bobby’s memories I can tell you that when he is at work in the staff room, every time he looks up ALL adults are glued to their phones!

You mean when they are on their breaks?
When someone tells you they have been busy and haven't had time to reply it usually means "I don't like you so please **** off and stop messaging me."

What about when you hit them up with an " I'm gonna be real scarce today as I'm terribly busy"?
I do that all the time…the preemptive blo off!

I’m going to do that in future. In fact I’ve just sent a message out to everyone in my contacts saying ‘don’t bother to contact me in future as I am really really busy’.
