Skinnerboxes as Health Problems and Impediments (Against Happiness)
If you are running on the treadmill, you probably ought not tinker with your skinnerbox ("smartphone"). It's not only dangerous, you're just totally missing the point of doing exercise. If you use equipment in the gym, then you should focus on the workout, not the skinnerbox. If you take the skinnerbox to the sauna, there are safety issues and you are not going to relax. Speaking of relaxation, if you sit on relaxing chairs only to mess with a skinnerbox, you are clearly not comprehending the concept or purpose of those chairs.
We wrote a great deal about people who go dine only to play with their skinnerboxes (sometimes takes photos of their drinks/foods with those skinnerboxes), but it's easy to see the same in gyms, spas, and so on. Sans beverages.
Then again, skinnerboxes are not about getting stuff done; skinnerboxes are a form of addiction. To a third party it looks like a smoker.█
