What I
hate about cell phones is how these days everyone wants one that can text
and play music
and download/identify songs
and download video clips
and tell you what's playing at which movie theater
and plays video games
and gives you internet service. IT'S A FRICKING
PHONE! You use it to CALL PEOPLE! I can't believe a person's sooooo desperate to figure out when "Marley and Me" is playing that they can't go home and check the newspaper.
I got a cell phone a few days before I started college. Why? Because I had a late class and my parents wanted me to call them when it was over so they'd know I was heading home. That's it. I use it to call my family. So over the course of the semester, I've used it for about two minutes a week, plus the odd Thursdays (for Japanese Club meetings).
So my point is, to me a cell phone is a basic thing. You type in a number, you wait while it rings, you talk when it's picked up, you hang up. It's basically a home phone that's portable.
Sorry about the rant. That just kind of gets at me.
