12. i don't forsee a situation where I would give up my corded landline
Edited on Wed Aug-03-05 07:29 PM by miss_kitty
especially since the time my cordless phone rang, I answered it, and it was a call for my upstairs neighbour. I could hear their conversation, and they had NO IDEA I was on the call. And IIRC, a landline is the only communication I have a reasonable expectation of privacy, although with the passage of all this 'Patriot' Act bullfuckingshit, I am not sure what the definition of 'reasonable' or 'privacy' is. And nerds and geeks can listen in on cells and cordless calls.

On Edit: plus cellphone reception always sucks at some point during the conversation. "No. I can't hear you now."
