Spritzie Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 I'm hit and miss with technology a lot of time. Half the time, I want to throw my computer and cell phone out the window. And I often wish I never had to see all of the computer equipment at work again. But I'm still pretty attached to it all. (Except my phone. I could do without it.) Quote
rachiee Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Yeah, I could easily live without my phone. I don't have unlimited anything- plus, I was never really big on texting or calling. Now, I can't live without my computer. I could probably live without my iPod, but only for a few days at most :P Quote
Manta Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 I don't like talking on the phone with people, but I'm also lazy, and often don't pick up the phone when i get a text. Then I forget that I've been texted, and never respond :laughingsmiley: Quote
Syrin of Neopia Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Haha, Manta, I'm sure you've upset many a person that way. Then again, so have I :) I just don't like talking on the phone because it seems like I never quite get what I'm trying to say across. Typing or talking in person is just much easier Quote
Manta Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Lol yeah, i've irritated people without meaning to, i'm sure xDDD My close friends know that I do that a lot, and that I often leave my phone off. If people get offended, I'm not too bothered. I'm not a social creature anyway :laughingsmiley: Quote
Masaryk Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I am the worst cell phone owner. I am forever forgetting to charge my phone and put minutes on it. I have no interest in having phone conversations with people while I'm out. I only use it to call home to see what I might be forgetting to buy at the grocery store. Canadian cell phone plans are terrible, so I have no incentive to use my phone more. Quote
:)Doc Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I've had 5 phones. :laughingsmiley: The first one, the charger part of the phone broke. The second one, I cracked the screen and broke it in half. The third one, I dropped in water. The fourth one, my friend broke in half. The fifth one, was taken away. :whistle: So, now I just use my iPod to text. :) Quote
-Ryan Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I used to take horrible care of my phone and never charge it, or i'd accidentally leave it somewhere. I left it on the curb outside my house for 2 hours once. xP Now thoygh I actually have someone that I text probably more than(Every minute or so...) I should and I never lose it. 8D Quote

To text my best friend (who's a girl! :rolleyes_anim:) Quote
Tedhaun Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 To be honest, I couldn't live without the internet. I'm shocked that we got Meridell today, I can't wait to show them who's boss in the rematch! Quote
Naamah D. Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I hate texting. There's just something about it. Yesterday we went to go pick my dad up and my mom said "Naamah, send a text to your dad to let him know we're going to be late" and I said "Whyyyy?????? Can't I just call him instead?????" "Texting is so much easier Naamah." I said "Fine......" my brother said "Sam, you're not a proper American for not texting!" I didn't know not liking something questioned my nationality. You learn something new every day. Quote
Tedhaun Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I never text, it takes too much typing on the phone when you can talk to him/her instead. Plus my fingers are too big for the buttons (not that big). Quote
rachiee Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I think it's really freakin' annoying when I tell my friends to call my home phone number and THEY SEND ME A TEXT INSTEAD like I tell them not to :grrr: And whenever my friends send texts to me, the guy who discovered grammar tosses and turns in his grave. :/ Seriously, their texts are laced with "dis" and "dat" and "u" and "wut" and "k" and whatnot...it's quite annoying. Quote
Manta Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 oh geez i hate when people talk in chatspeak. my grandma texts like that, and it drives me CRAZY!!! I don't mind a missed capitalization here or there, but "u" and "2" drive me nuts :laughingsmiley: Quote
Syrin of Neopia Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 See I love texting, but hate chatspeak in texts. Especially because my dad has started doing it. A "u" every once in a while is okay, but my dad will say "kewl" instead of cool which is stupid because it saves no space whatsoever and just makes him look silly Quote

Spritzie Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I prefer texts if it's short, but I'm one of those that despises phone calls. I only call when I need to. Quote
Manta Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I think my main problem is that i dislike communicating with people :laughingsmiley: Ever since I quit playing Magic, I don't have a real life anymore :whistle: Quote
Spritzie Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I just don't like phone calls, I think they're awkward. I prefer in person, or texts/emails. I hit rank 15 finally! :D Now to decide whether to try for rank 16, or to just be done with it. Quote
Syrin of Neopia Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I wish I had the time to rank up higher than Rank 1 . . . maybe next AC I definitely prefer talking in person than on the phone, but texting or online will do. Random topic change: It's 10am where I am but I'm finding myself wanting lunch. Does anybody else feel weird about eating lunch before 11? Quote
Spritzie Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I'd just eat when I was hungry. If I wasn't at work, I'd go for lunch right now and it's 9am. (But I do get off work at 1pm today.) Quote
Manta Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I usually forget to eat when I'm busy, but it always felt weird to me back in middle school when my lunch was at like...10:30pm Now, I just eat whenever. Opportunistic college student scavenger :laughingsmiley: Quote
Spritzie Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I usually snack here and there at work when my blood sugar gets too low, then have a normal dinner at home. Quote

Naamah D. Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I usually don't eat unless I'm really REALLY hungry. I didn't eat much yesterday until I got my hands on a two plate Mexican dinner, I ate like a barbarian. That plate was clean! Quote
