Kymberleigh,
I agree with your #1 reason.
I have to disagree with your call waiting pet peeve (#3). I feel if you are talking to someone, it is disrespectful to tell that person, "I'll be right back." Afterall, you were on the phone with that person first. If the other person is important, they will call back. If not, you did not miss anything.
Your #4 reason I totaly agree with you on that one too!! (But don't forget, "people are naturally social"). I mean, if you wanted to keep something a secret, would you tell a friend your "secret" to begin with?
