“And all that doesn’t matter for squat if you like your old phone and don’t want to waste $1200 bucks.”
I got $650 trade-in for my 2 1/2 year old phone.
We used to repeat “purse billfold” before starting car. Now we also say “phone”.
“If we wanted survival we would throw every one of these devices into a burning pit.
These are more dangerous than booze and cigarettes.”
Smart phones could save your life.
“Less of nitwit phones might be a good thing.”
What is a nitwit phone?
“What you carry.”
13. They don’t know how to communicate properly.
Some people may resort to making fun of others because they don’t know how to effectively communicate their true thoughts and feelings.
They either feel unable to express themselves, or they simply cannot find the right words to say what they want to say.
So, to avoid having to try, they use mockery and put downs as a means of distraction and to prevent any heartfelt conversations from taking place.
Yes and they can also take away your life. The phone feature alone could save your life. The internet? That is a stretch.
“The phone feature alone could save your life. The internet? That is a stretch.”
Not a stretch. It’s called 911.
“Yes and they can also take away your life. “

“Yes and they can also take away your life. “
That was also said of the PC!
Like that 7up commercials about caffeine phrase never had it never will. I just think of how much money I saved and money in my pocket for just using my flip cell phone all the time. Then besides the tracking im so glad I never wasted money on that
” I just think of how much money I saved and money in my pocket for just using my flip cell phone all the time. “
I think about all the money you lost by not having a smart phone.
Mine pays for itself with time and money savings every month.
“I just think of how much money I saved “
You could have saved even more if you had ditched the cellphone!
I usually check for carrying the phone when we go somewhere. But the day before, I switched jackets while we went for a walk, and the phone stayed in the other jacket. I like the new tech. I have an Airtag in my wallet and car, as well as a smart watch. I can use the watch or phone to track location of all my devices, including my wallet and cars. Very convenient, compared to when I carried a pager in the '90s and had to search for a public phone. Someday, all this tech will be built into cars as a standard feature, as well as an AI voice reminding us to check for stuff before starting the car.
I needed it when I was out in case of emergency but all that smart BS I didnt need
