Do you get mad if a close friend is always on cell/texting when with you?

Let's just say someone you have known for 10+ years. My friend claims that since we are so close there isn't really a need for formalities and thinks I am weird for getting irritated.

For example, when my friend is at my house; sometimes will receive get a phone call and then proceed go into the bathroom or my bedroom and talk for 25-30 minutes straight. My friend claims that if I were to do the same to them that they wouldn't get irritated and that I am being strange for being annoyed and that most people wouldn't mind, and that some people (referring to themselves obviously) are just "busy" and really "sociable" and therefore can't help it that a lot of people want to converse with them.

This friend is also always texting other people when they are with me. This is a childhood friend that I grew up with, I still think it's rude though. Is it rude or is it just me?
