We all know someone who doesn’t like to be without their cell phone… but did you know there’s an actual name for it? “Nomophobia” is described as “The fear of being without a mobile device”.

- I don’t mind being without my smart phone… but I’ll admit I’ve still got a touch of “Flipophobia” - the fear of being without my trusty Flip Phone that I finally had to get rid of when I went swimming with it in my bathing suit pocket. (NOTE: If you want to amaze people and tell them that you can talk underwater - just have them close their eyes, keep your head ABOVE water, put your index finger up to your lips, hum and go “bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb” while flapping your finger up and down on your lips. Your welcome.)
