I've actually been socially pressured to check my phone at a dinner table if at a certain point everyone else at the table checks theirs (which is not even a jab at them- at least a few people probably had a legitimately urgent-enough notification to attend to... making after-dinner plans, checking train schedule etc.) It's just funny how strong the social urge is to not just sit there if everyone else is also checking their phones.
