This final note today, which…I just…can’t, really.

A survey from a mobile payments company called Jumio. They do a study called Mobile Consumer Habits, from which we learned today that one in 10 American adults use their smartphones during sex.

Among 18-34-year-olds, it’s one in five. Twenty — yes 20 — percent. During sex.

Left unreported, was how partners felt about it.
