I never get a new cell phone. |
|
I've had the same one for like five years.
Does it take pictures? Does it play a little song? Does it walk the dog for me?
I don't give a shit--I just answer it when it rings! :hi:

Loved One got a new car, and the new car is Blue Tooth, so he needed a Blue Tooth phone ... so I got a new one, too. It doesn't ring; it plays the Aqua Teen Hunger Force theme. The only reason I have one is because my car blew a head gasket two years ago and I had to wait for someone with a cell to call AAA for me. Unlikely to happen again, but Loved One got me a phone just in case.

2. The new phones perplex me. |
|
What are people doing with them? Texting and playing and photographing and Oh My God like who has TIME for all that crap?

I do text, but not like teens do. I'll send a text (like, "do we need groceries?") when I need an answer, just not immediately, and a phone call may not be appropriate since one of us is at work. The camera might be handy in case of an accident; no need to keep a disposable camera in the glove box. And yes, I do like gadgets, but I'm not stupid enough to use any of them while I'm driving - that's what voicemail's there for.

4. How do you manage that? |
|
I had mine for two years before the battery failed, and when I went to buy a new one they just laughed. It was cheaper to replace the phone than then battery (and now I have a phone that also takes crappy pictures!)
