An increasingly large minority given the number of people I see with
wires dangling into their pockets.

Often going to wired headphones.

I'm not sure why the wire out of a telephone going into a pocket
would be wired headphones.

Some people thread a wire (for headphones) through their jacket from
somewhere near the collar to inside a pocket. You then need to plug the
phone into the pocket.
