[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, she behaved badly. She shouldn't have trampled on  your boundaries, but then you indignantly responded by: trampling on her boundaries. More than she did yours, actually.[/quote]

Agreed.  I mean, realistically you Googled her because you heard her name from the nurse.  Not that she wasn't being annoying, but that's pretty over the top on your part.[/quote]

OP here--her name was common enough that I wouldn't have been able to identify her online without all the other details she so generously shared with all the other patients in the waiting room.  I don't feel like I trampled on her boundaries--she acted like she was the center of the universe and, since I was forced to live in her universe, I took the full tour![/quote]

Your Momma didn't raise you right, clearly.

The expression "two wrongs don't make a right" applies here.

Loser.[/quote]

And clearly YOUR momma raised you right, since you make a point by calling other people losers, right?

I think you're missing the point of the post--that many people have become so narcissistic and addicted to their devices that they believe that their electronic worlds somehow create a bubble which shields them from the normal defenses of privacy.  I've been on the train with college students who foolishly announce their names, where they live, where they go to school, how long they will be out of town, etc.  Just like the people who post on Facebook how long they will be on vacation--might as well put up a "please rob me" sign on the front door![/quote]
