how is it egotistical?

i think cellphones can be of great use

many times it has saved an evening of trouble for me.

cant find friends, need parents to pick me up etc

i'm not talking about that. a ton of people think they're
just so interesting that they have to call people up on the
cell phone just to shoot the breeze while they're driving in
their car, like who wouldn't want to talk to them? it's a
cure for boredom really. just seeing people carry on on
their cell phone walking around a store or on the sidewalk
makes me sick.

i use my cell phone as my primary phone... it stays INSIDE
MY HOUSE... unless i am going off on a big trip :)

i do not think that is "egotistical" or stupid... i just
hate the fact that large companies can charge up the ass on
phone calls

yeah
ok i can see that

but as far as usefullness goes, i think they are great. when
i lived in italy i had one, and you know, me and some
friends would go out on the town, and we wouldnt be able to
find were everyone else was, so wed give a ring, and then
meet up

and stuff

also id call my parents if i was gonna be late and stuff

that's not what i'm talking about either, i'm just
criticizing people who over use cell phones, chatting their
heads off to the annoyance of everyone around them

what bothers me is those ear peice things, so they dont have
to hold the phone, and it looks like people are talking to
themselves

they have fully animated conversations etc

in denmark last week i saw a bicyclist in a busy street
having a conversation on his cell phone with one hand on his
cell phone and the other on the handle bar, and i thought,
wow, this really has gone too far.

shoulder and their head talking away as if its nothing
wrong-such cunts deserve an accident-and there's so many in
london its untrue-all bloody phones have hands free kits!!!

I despise them. Everyone I see goes walking around talking
into those things all the time. Just for the SAKE of it.
You're not that interesting, just shut up and do your thing
and there's lots of time to talk later where I won't HEAR
you bitch about ''Chris' girlfriend'' and ''Rob's car''.

They can be very useful, but I just LOVE my quality time
alone to think to myself, why call someone up and talk about
stupid shit when you could be THINKING about stupid shit and
not getting brain cancer and annoying another human being!
But that's just me.

I was lost yesterday and I called my dad and he gave me
directions. I never would've found the place without the
phone. BUT they do cause lots of accidents so I don't talk
on them unless I need to.

I think it's illegal in Ireland to drive a car and use a
mobile without a hands-free kit.

I've seen plans on using "mobile phone dampeners" for movie
theatres and restaurants, but I'm not sure what the legality
of that is - doctors might be on call, etc.

It's now illegal in NY state to drive and talk at the same
time, unless you have a handsfree kit.

here's a funny site you should look @

it's these guys dressed up like cell phones running around
grabbing random people's phones and bashing them to bits
right before their victims eyes...

Talking to your girlfriend. Pssssssshhhhht. Stupid.

Everyone has a girlfriend but I don't get a boyfriend! The
person who charged you was probably bitter like me, and
that's why they did it, cause they knew you had a
girlfriend, and they didn't, and they were jealous!

I hate when people mis-use mobile phones. I do agree they
are good for security reasons and so forth. It just pisses
me off me I hear people saying 'How could we have lived
without Mobile Phones'. Bah, wankers :)

I like them. And why not? I can get a hold of people
anywhere, people can get a hold of me and if I want I can
turn it off or put it on ignore. It holds adresses, #'s
ofcourse and other stuff. Its my communication tool really,
and I play a flat rate for a nice phone, 7pm to 7am everyday
free and weekends free too. And the pay is super cheap for
200 minutes a week inbetween all the free stuff. I like cell
phones!

cell phones are a necessary evil for me...absolute necessity
for my work. it's a convience that i can't remember doing
without.

i agree it's dangerous to drive and talk on the telly (i try
to limit exchanges and i do have hands free)

but i can't tell you how many times i've been saved by my
handy phone. calling a taxi in the middle of the night in a
unfamiliar city (remember BF o mine =)
etc., etc...

it does bug hearing someone's person convo whilst shopping
for groceries, or telling someone 5 times to turn off their
phone cos we are about to take OFF, etc.. but overall it's a
technological advance that i'm happy about! =D

well... that's the game of it... isn't it? a good catch
might equal a good steal which in turn might equal a bf who
is great in *ALL* aspects of
personality/phisicality/mentality/& BED KNOWLEDGE :)
