    This image makes me feel like everyone is on their phones too much and need to interact with people more because of the people on their phones. I do think this is an effective way because if you go out anywhere you'll see that most people are on their phone.

    HAHAHA! This is hilarious, It shows that they had the plan, the idea, and even coordinated with each other to hangout outside, but the irony is that they are doing the same thing as they would be doing inside. this is definatly and effecient way of showing that you need to get up and out of the house without your phones, Even though the Thought does count it doesn't mean that you could enjoy the environment around you!
