Cell phone

Am I the last adult on the planet without a cell phone? I understand if you need one for work or if you travel alot or sell drugs like Big Pimpin but other than that it seems like I am the only person I know without one

Wow...yeah, you might be. I was one of the last people I knew without one, but that was 3 years ago. I needed it for my new job cause I travelled a lot.

Actually, I know very few people with a regular phone line in their house. My parents have a phone in their house but they also have 3 cell phones.

Its just more convenient to me. You don't have to wait till you get home to make plans or get food delivered or find out what your friends are doing that night.

But, honestly, you don't know what your missing if you never had one. So I would probably just save my money and not get one...haha.

Wow, I wish I didn't have a cell phone. Some people say they are a device of convenience and I agree. Having one makes it a lot more convenient for people to track you down and bother you! I love technology but don't ya think it is getting a touch excessive.

"Did you see I called? Did you get my message? I texted you, didn't you get it? Did you see that email I sent you? Did you get that message I taped to that dead hooker I left on your porch?"

Scratch that last one, I think I made my point.

I agree, and I know we've all woken up to find a dead hooker on the porch and don't remember how she got there...........ah the 90's were a blur

[QUOTE=Gobbler's Knob]Am I the last adult on the planet without a cell phone?

No, I never had one and i have no intentions of getting one. I have a home phone and if somebody needs to get ahold of me they can call. If Im not home they can leave a message and I will call them back. If I break down on the highway somewhere I carry a sign with me that says NEED TO BORROW A CELL PHONE TO CALL FOR HELP! lol Or when i`am out and about everyone I know has a cell phone so i just borrow theirs if I need to make a call. lol

you are not the only one man...i dont have one either...had one back in the mid 90's when they were so common to have...i remember walking down the street to class at penn state and people would gwak at me and look at me as if i am some sort of snob...was not rarely seen of people talking on the phone walking down the street...now basically if you dont have one people wonder what is wrong with you

I've got two of them. One number for all my friends and family and the other is just a pay as you go number I give to chicks I just meet. That way if they become stalkers I can just change the number with ease. LOL.

Good for you Victor, I will be starting a website for those of us who do not have a cell phone so we have a support group when these cell phone thugs pick on us.
