I hate tablets because they are harder to grip. I drop things a lot.
Yeah...that's why mine is brand new. I cannot for the life of me understand why they make these things out of glass.

I resent phones.
I always push several buttons at the same time. Sometimes I write something that doesn’t even resemble a word. I also push the space bar accidentally while I type all the time and produce holey words.

Ours is crazy...$200. That's for 3 phones, ipad plus the payments for the devices. Cable's the same. Total bullshit.
Cable is a huge ripoff here. 180 a month. Bastids need to be hung.

I resent the demands placed on you when you have a phone. It's a yoke, a burden, a mantle of responsibility because everyone knows you know they're calling and if you don't talk to them, they know you are deliberately avoiding them and the privilege of plausible deniability is removed from the social equation...to the detriment of our species.
I never go to bed with my phone. Someone could be dying, and I wouldn’t know until I wake up.

email kind of disappeared. It was like the fax machine....cool as hell briefly and then something better came along...maybe email. But we've moved on.
I had Prodigy back in...a long time ago. It had email and some bare bones news content. Oh...and the telephone modem that would tie up your phone line for hours.

There's no one not living in my house that I give a shit if they die in the middle of the night.

There's only one cable company in my neighborhood and that's also the only way to get internet. And there's never anything I want to watch on any of the 800 channels of cable, broadcast, streaming bullshit...I don't even know what's going on anymore. Every tv gets a different set of channels and has a different remote control.

I turn it on for the dog before I go to work. I put it on the food channel. That's what dogs like.

I dreamed last night that I was flying somewhere, and I was pretending to be retarded, so I can get a free upgrade.
