Please turn off your cell phone before robbing the teller.

This article doesn’t say, but I wonder what kind of conversation a robber has on her cell phone while she’s robbing a bank.

Investigators say they’re not sure if she’s actually talking to someone on the phone or just pretending.

“Hey, girlfriend! Yeah, I’m just robbin’ the Wachovia on Fourth street. Yeah, showed ’em my gun. What, you think they got me on camera? No way!”

I guess I have no hope of getting my students to turn their phones off in class now if it’s socially acceptable to rob banks while chatting on the phone.
