I'm pretty sure I may be the last person alive without a cellphone and I'm damn proud of it. Not since the Furbee has there been such an obnoxious invention... Last night I was lucky enough to be able to attend a speech by Dr Fritjof Capra. My enjoyment of it, was severely hindered by the fact that despite his request that everyone turn off their cellphones, at least 5 of them went of during the hour long speech. In addition, at any given time I could look down the rows of people sitting in front of me and see several dumbasses text messaging on their little blue neon screens in the middle of the lecture. The damn thing lasted just a little over an hour!! How fucking short have our attention spans become?!? So your good friend Jill or Johnny wants to know what you're doing tomorrow or when you're coming home or if you're still with that slut you picked up at the party of friday night...It can wait, goddamnit!

 

It's become impossible for people to concentrate on one thing. No one can be bothered to focus...people are just always have to be talking or communicating with someone or playing a game or watching a screen. The only thing that pisses me off more than bad drivers are bad drivers using cellphones. Sorry, Ms 5 MPG SUV, Mocha Latte, gotta get the kids to the game and don't care if you cut my ass off while doing it...Personally I find the safety of myself and other drivers more important than your husband telling you if you're out of milk or not.

 

The one thing I love about cellphones is the people who have the ear pieces and headsets that you can't actually see. It's so funny to watch some dumbass walking down the road who appears to be talking to themselves...The sad thing is that almost everyone is doing it now, when I walk downtown I'm the only person not talking to myself.

 

I really hate the way people on cellphones tend to act so entitled to be able to use them whenever and wherever they want. While I was in a movie theater once, someone woman's cellphone rang and she had the audacity to actually answer it. When I told her to "shut the fuck up" she acted as though I was somehow being unreasonable...the bitch. For once I'd like to be able the ride the bus without having to listen to someone else's conversation with their friend Joe who wants to know how many beers to bring, or dear mommy who wants to know what time they're getting home.

 

Yes, I know their are certain conveniences that cellphones provide, but let's be honest...People have survived just fine without cellphones for thousands of years...(and the rate of ADD among children was probably a lot less, I might add)...The majority of cellphone use is just idiotic little conversations with little to no importance. You don't need to be connected every goddamned minute of your life. A little offline/offphone time will do a whole lot of good...

 

 

I don't care if I become the only person in existence without one, I will never, ever own a cellphone.

 

Anyhow, that rant turned out a lot longer that I thought it would...sorry to those of you who actually read the whole thing.

Do as you told the woman in the movie theatre. And shut the fuck up.

Do as you told the woman in the movie theatre. And shut the fuck up.

 

.

so basically mate....and all who read this....the guy does not like phones.

dude you basically sound like you have no one to talk to

 

you get irritated by friend's picking up calls on your fucking bus route to tell another friend how many beers to bring?

 

that's kind of sad

I read the first sentence then I realised I don't give a shit about your opinion on whether or not I should use a phone. Nobody gives a shit.

i agree with you

but i do own a cellphone

it's a good way to keep in touch with your friends or other people

so it just sounds like you don't have friends :happysad:

TL;DR

stop accusing him of having no friends because you all don't have friends either...you insecure ***gots. He makes sense... I just don't want to have a cellphone because when you want to get away you don't want to be located... and I want to be able to have an excuse for not calling my parents when I'm out at 2 am.

This made me laugh, i skim read it because i read the first few lines and I knew you where writing in a way to try and create suspense and you werent succeeding so I looked out for key things. Like

 

"In addition, at any given time I could look down the rows of people sitting in front of me and see several dumbasses text messaging on their little blue neon screens in the middle of the lecture." - I love textin my GF about sex when your not supposed to be thinkin about sex. And when she texts back tellin you about what she is gonna do to you later then you enjoy the lecture more knowing the day is soon to get better.

 

"..People have survived just fine without cellphones for thousands of years.." - That's because for this past 1000 or so years there was no need for them. What caveman was under pressure from his boss to hurry up the construction of a rock house so he rang up other cave men to see how he could get planning permission to put a rock ontop of another rock, and to put a price on it, and get through to the safety cave man to see what day suited him best..

 

It didnt happen because.. aww fuck this im just doing what you did. Rambling on.

 

Basically, you want to make money, then you need to be available to work. How are you available to work? By being contacted. PHONE.

 

Like this morning, I got a phone call this morning at 6:30am. One of my farmer friends was up doing shit and he said he needed AutoCad to design a device for his tractor. He rang my mobile. I wasnt at home, as I dont stay here much so I said yeah sure call over at 12 and get it.

 

If I didnt have a mobile, he wouldnt have gotten autocad and his day would have been shitter and i have +1 points for being nice.

 

There thats me done.

and I want to be able to have an excuse for not calling my parents when I'm out at 2 am.

 

Get a PAYasYouGo phone instead of a contract phone and say you have no money. And why are you calling your parents at 2am? Wouldnt they get fucked off if you woke em?

I'm pretty sure I may be the last person alive without a cellphone blah blah blah blah ja ja jaaaaaah bleee bleee beeeep boooo

 

Yea yea i hear ya

stop accusing him of having no friends because you all don't have friends either...you insecure ***gots. He makes sense...

I actually have plenty of friends. And you don't.

The only reason you'd be out past 10PM is a LAN tournament or paying a hooker to give you a handjob in the back of a bar.

YOU have no friends. Just your right hand. So get aquainted with it while I use mine to call one of my friends on my cell phone.

do you really think we care if you dont have a cell phone

so basically mate....and all who read this....the guy does not like phones.

 

Yeah...I suppose I don't mind people owning them...It's just that they use them...ALL THE FUCKING TIME!

 

People need to learn when to give it a rest...

=D

 

Thank you.

Yeah...I suppose I don't mind people owning them...It's just that they use them...ALL THE FUCKING TIME!

i'm gonna start doing all these things just to piss people like you off

 

P.S. RAGED

didnt read that. too much bullshit. all i can say is wait until you break down in the middle of nowhere without a phone and cant walk. it has saved my ass many of times

I own a cellyphone (as I prefer to call it.) Its usually in my car in the charger since I rarely use it. I keep it around for emerencies.

DO YOU KEEP IT NEXT TO YOUR WOODEN DENTURES MATE?

Get over it?

 

Its cheaper and more practical than a home phone.

 

And it does suck when someone in front of you in a line at WalMart or whatever is to busy to hand the cashier the money because they're talking, but just like everything else that sucks (like rap, those loud idiotic exhausts on cars, wiggers, bottled water, etc...) you have to get used to it and get over it.
