Phone chargers are the new crack.
Its amazing watching people. They have to have their phones charging 24 hours a day, no matter where they are. They run around the room panicked if there isn't a charger available. You'd think battery capacity went down to 0 on every phone made. People walk in the barber shop, and the first words aren't even "Hello" its "Hey you got a charger?" or "Who's using this charger?" or "Where's a plug so I can charge my shit?" Bums walk by not asking for change, but if they can use a charger for 5 minutes. Go anywhere there are teenagers/young adults, they're tethered to the closest outlet.
And now they have those portable charging things that plug up to your phone. People are walking around with the thing tossed over their shoulders like it's a fashion accessory. So you got people walking around looking for a phone charger, and an outlet to charge their other charger.
I don't get it, I charge my phone for maybe half an hour to an hour in the morning, half an hour to an hour in the evening, and in the car if I'm running around. I guess people don't get if you're not on facebook and shit every waking second the battery wont die.

True story; Ive been in the emergency room, the woman in the corner charging her phone while she's waiting, gets called in, doesnt move, gets called twice more and tells the nurse "Would you hang on a minute, I'm only at 20%!" Daaaaaamn, your phone battery is a bigger emergency than literally the emergency that took you to the emergency room...
Just had some kind of ptsd movie theater flash back from when I took my daughter to see The Lego Movie a few months ago on the first weekend it was out.
Wanted to walk around the theater and punch all the terrible parents who were letting their children run around like it was a fucking playground.
So many groups rolling like 5 kids deep and none of them seemed to want to control their fucking kids.
Swore off opening weekend movies that might involve children.

I don't need extra batteries period. I've had this current phone for a year and a half and have never even opened the back to take the battery out.
And no, they're not the same as the OEM Samsung battery. Samsung produces their own batteries. Bootleg batteries are mass produced using inferior parts.
It's like Nike and Payless shoes, both are made in China, but tell me which one is gonna fall apart after playing basketball regularly in them after a month or two.

I guess that's something that parents don't do anymore.
When I was little there would be an ass whooping coming if we cut out of line in public. It was made abundantly clear before we left the house there were going to be no shenanigans tolerated.
But not only that it was a respect for the people that were going to be wherever we were going. Waiters/Waitresses, movie theater staff, etc...They are doing their job, and we are there to take part in what they're providing.
Parents now think wherever they go now, the staff is a baby-sitter or assistant.
Shit happens at the shop, mom sends in her 4 kids for haircuts while she sits in the car (probably charging her phone). Damn kids are running around, one of them falls and smacks his lip on a chair, goes and tells mom. She comes in talking at me about "Why weren't you watching him? Who was letting him run around?" I looked her dead in the face and said "That's not my kid, and I didn't go to school to babysit."

That reminds me of that video that was floating around the internet a few months ago of that little 4 year old kid who was by himself running around a skate park while his mom was off in the distance no where near where he was. Of course a skateboarder doesn't see him and runs in to him and of course the shitty parent who was letting her 4 year old run around a skate park acted like the skateboarder was at fault and actually started punching the skateboarder.
Fuck people now days.
I don't think I go one day without extreme disappointment in humanity because of some situation I witness or find myself in.
I can say that their AAs, AAAs etc are TERRIBLE. One pair made my Xbox controller smoke lmao
Surprisingly tho the quality control of the bootleg phone batteries have never been an issue in 3 different phones ive had. I'm not doubting that it can be but my experience been good.
I'm also more prone to gamble because my warranty would cover any fuck ups.

I used to sell oem batteries for camcorders and digital cameras and people would always bitch about how much cheaper they were online. But they were always referring to the knock off ones. We finally gave in and started ordering the knock offs and they blew. People would return them saying they quit holding a charge. I hate customers.
