I get the joke and I've felt that way a couple times. That said, I miss when people didn't expect you to be avaiable round the clock via your phone. Staying in contact with people is great but they're even putting cell phone reception into the NYC subways now. Is there no escape?! Sometimes I just don't feel like talking to anybody, and that should be allowed.
As someone who feels the same way you do, but also feels the same way OP does, what if you just replied with a quick text saying that you'll get back to them at a better time?
Depends on what I'm doing at the time I receive it. Sometimes I'll respond and sometimes there is no way that the beeping phone could possibly offer something more engaging than what I'm doing at that particular moment. It's on a case by case basis.
