Why do people laugh when a cellphone goes off during class?

<p>why????? (10char)</p>

<p>lol at my school everyone freaks out and checks to see if it is theirs first, then if the idiot doesn’t do anything everyone laugh because they are dumb.</p>

<p>loll its a normal occurrence in my school. no one really does anything o_O</p>

<p>Because it’s the same kid everytime and then he goes, “Why is it always me? :(”</p>

<p>Because students are jaded of the monotonous public school schedule and like little insignificant events such as a cell phone ringing because it breaks the monotony.</p>

<p>in our school, everyone looks around or says ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh</p>

<p>We always start coughing really loudly. It usually never works, but the teachers don’t actually care.</p>

<p>What jduster said.</p>

<p>Plus, the ringtone is often quite humorous, especially considering the spontaneous interruption is causes.</p>

<p>Haha we all just look at the person and then the teacher says turn the phone off. We have a few teachers that absolutely don’t care and you can just have your phone on your desk and text all you want. What is funny is when kids get caught making phone calls in the bathroom. I went in there last semester and my friend was trying to sell his truck over the phone. Then the principal came in laughed and walked out.</p>

<p>Agree with jduster…</p>

<p>perhaps because they lead extremely pathetic lives so this event, which you consider to be rather insignificant, is one of the few bright moments they will ever experience</p>

<p>It’s because everything out of the norm at school is hilarious.</p>

<p>^Hahaha. That’s funny. The principal? XD</p>

<p>Eh. We all just smirk and the teacher just goes on about his business. =/</p>

<p>But cell phones aren’t banned at my school. You’re just not supposed to have them turned on in class, but you can make phone calls during the day and stuff.</p>

<p>People “freaked” out when we all first got cell phones in middle school. Now it’s like whatever. When phones go off, teachers don’t care BUT if someone is obviously texting then they get mad/take it up.</p>

<p>We’re allowed to text and call between classes…</p>

<p>I was in a testing center and a guys cell phone went off with the song Only Girl by Rihanna. That was hilarious.</p>

<p>^That musta’ been so embarrassing.</p>
