I need to be able to reach my handicapped wife at all times - that is the only reason I carry a cell phone. It is getting rediculous trying to make a call and having the network so busy it takes fifteen minutes just to make a short call. And, this is no exageration. I know for some people this is their only phone. But, not for the majority. So please remember the number of channels available in any cell network is limited. If you must have long conversations with your friends and relations wait until you get home and can use the land lines. They are usually much clearer. And, you won't be tying up those limited channels. Thank you. |
What is it with people yacking on these things in the grocery store? Every time I go to the store I see at least two or three people yacking away on their cell phones while they're doing their shopping. Usually it is women I see doing this. But, not all the time. And, they are the dumbest things these people are yacking about on the phones. "What dress they are going to wear to the office party," "Did you see what happened to him/her," "I'm sooo misstreated at work," "My kid did this...". Give it a rest. I've seen people get their cell phones and start dialing while they are trying to back out of their parking space. What in the world could possibly be sooo important that they cann't wait to talk about. No wonder so many local governments want to ban cell phone use in cars. |
Thank god he's coming back soon. :) |
. For some people, their cell phone is their entertainment. They can't just sit somewhere, alone with their thoughts. As Pink Floyd and Douglas Adams have both said, people need to keep talking or their brains will start working. . Owning a cell phone very nearly brought me to psychological ruin. This was largely because I knew a couple people who'd call me on it all the fucking time about incredibly trivial things. |
She says it keeps her mind active. She's probably right. We don't have to many friends that will call her. I just wish she would turn off the damn thing at night. If I turned it off she would wake up immeadiately and turn it back on. I do set the sleep timer on it though. After I'm asleep who cares. |
