Phone Licker

Noun. Derogatory.

1. A window licker for the 21st century: typically an intellectually stunted grown man so wrapped in technology that they could clean their cellphone's screen with their tongue in public and think nothing of it. Has a tendency to be hardcore fanatics for escapism tailored for people half their age; for example: comic book movies, pre-teen or teen fiction, children's cartoons and video games. See: Man child

2. A person whose phone has made them figuratively retarded, all self-awareness depleted from their mind. They treat their phone like a best friend in order to compensate for their social awkwardness.
John sat in the corner playing free to play games on his phone as the party commenced around him. John is a phone licker.

phone leg

A British synonym of phantom phone, the experience of feeling your phone vibrate in your pocket when in fact it hasn't. You are either imagining it or mistaking other vibration sources for your phone.

Commonly occurs when driving in the narrow cobble-stoned streets of London. More likely to occur if you are talking about someone behind their back. You suddenly think they're calling you, feel an immediate twinge of guilt, followed by immense relief when you realise it was just phone leg.
Ed: "Hang on, my phone's going. Oh no it's not. It's phone leg. I thought it was my daughter. Do you get phone leg?"
Rob: "Yes, but I try not to keep it in my leg."
Ed: "What are you, a terminator?"

Butt Phone

A butt phone is a device used by technicians (and rarely ever home users) working on telecommunications networks to diagnose issues within the communications systems.

All the numbered buttons and the plugs etc are located on the end of the handset itself. Hence, the term butt phone.
Example 1:
Technician: "I have my butt plugged into the line"

Example 2:

Technician: "I love my butt phone"

phone wars

When a person calls a phone and then hangs up before the other person gets a chance to answer it. It's like the classic game of ding dong ditch, only with a phone. For an aggressive phone war, you can call and hang up quickly resulting in a half-ring, and you can do so multiple times in succession. You can also call phones for people who are absent just to aggravate people who sit nearby. This is especially amusing if the volume is cranked way up and you pretend that the phone is malfunctioning.
The bald guy got really ticked off and talked to our boss about the phone wars.
