In fact, research (in the UK) suggests that people who use phones less are more likely to watch TV than people who use them a lot.

It wasn't my intention to "boast" that I don't use a phone much. The post I responded to was making a point based on the assumption that "we" have our phones on 100% of the time. I was just trying to point out that there are people in that "we" for which that is not true.
