Phantom Cell Phone Syndrome

When a cell phone becomes so attached to the person's self that they can feel it vibrate or ring when it has not. This stems from a long term dependency on cell phone technology and can easily be remedied by not using cell phone technology for several weeks. The term Phantom Cell Phone Syndrome was first coined by Social Psychologist Bradley Ictech.
When you feel your cell phone vibrate in your pocket, but it is in the other room you have just experienced Phantom Cell Phone Syndrome.

Often implies that you're spending your time having romantic encounters and otherwise spending your time doing extracurriculars, while avoiding work entirely.
I'm so sorry I couldn't check my email last week. I left my phone in a cab in Barcelona.

The greatest song I’ve ever heard in my life, created by Travis Scott, Young Thug and Quavo. These three were like Steph, Klay and KD on this song. Quavo even invented the word discriminize during his iconic verse.

Timmy: I KNOW YOU’RE HOME BABY! (IT’S LIT!)
Kyle: I’M IN THE ZONE BABY! (STRAIGHT UP!)
Bobby: I JUST POURED UP A FOUR BABY!
