This is obviously an informal conversation and I've clearly stated in my comment that "I've seen" a different situation "in many social contexts". Which I, again, informally generalize into a phenomenon I consider common enough to be mentioned.
I do not intend to provide you with statistical backing for what amounts to, again, clearly obviously anecdotal evidence.

My original comment was answering an existing comment that literally started with "I saw a humorous exchange at a social event" and described literally an anecdote.
I'm hoping you'll see why it's obvious that my comment was very much fit to the existing conversation that was already happening.
I reside in the EU and I use an iPhone. This is dependent on context and social circle, but it does happen.
