When someone peppers their Facebook updates around the time they go to, and come back from work - they are 'Smartphone Cruising'.
They're looking for an excuse to pull out their new iPhone/Nexus to show off to everyone in the carriage that they have a Bleeding Edge phone/cell.
They have no friends, but hundreds of Facebook Friends - so updating your status gives a 'Smartphone Cruiser' something to do with their gadget.
Usually practised by male Uber geeks, of The Great Unwashed variety. In the mistaken and laughable belief that women will become aroused.
(They won't).

Get the Smartphone Cruising mug.To be "too smart by half" (also common is "too clever by half") is to be too smart for one's own good, meant either literally or ironically. As an idiom, it is usually sarcastic. The phrase has a wide range of potential uses; for instance, it can mean:
1.) Something so complex that it's self-obfuscating.
2.) A seemingly clever action that is in fact foolish.
3.) Logically accepting something as necessary that isn't.
4.) Overanalysis.
5.) Elitism (see ivory tower).
