A social phenomena occurring when a group of two or more people, who should be socializing, are all on their phones resulting in a momentary or prolonged silence.
I should be talking to my girlfriend over dinner, but instead she is instagramming on her iphone and i am defining "phoning" on urbandictionary.com. What a date. #phoning #2016
When the conversation slowed to a lull, we started phoning and pretended like we didn't know each other.
When I looked up from sending a text I realized all 7 of us were phoning and no one was talking.
"Look at that couple phoning over there. I wonder if they are sexting each other."
