am I the only one who finds extremely funny when people ask for directions with their smartphone in their hand

Depends on the context.

If I'm hanging out with friends, in a city or area I'm relatively familiar with, and somebody suggests going to a restaurant or something I don't know, I might just casually ask "Where is it? How are we getting there?" or something like that. Because there's a good chance I don't need to pull out my phone, open an app, type something in, make sure it's the right location (being buried beneath the ad results), and following the steps the whole time, when a simple "just head to where the BDSM dungeon is, it like 2 doors down"
