Well damn.
Looks like I'm going to have to get one of those weird ass pay-as-you-go cellphones just so the company that's taking my car home can meet up with me and verify they've got the right car.
I will not be calling anyone with it, I will not be texting anyone with it, no one will be able to call me with it. I still hold very true to the belief that a cellphone is a pointless waste of money and will hold out as long as I can on buying one. Besides, if I've got this stupid pay-as-you-go one, I can use it in emergencies (such as when my car dies while I'm on my way home? oh wait), which is all I ever really wanted a cellphone for anyway. So. Fuck you society. Cellphones are not important. If someone wanted to reach me, there's a million other ways they could do it. Including, gasp, the landline phone that is sitting ten (twenty?) feet away from me.
Also, I just had a huge realization in the shower earlier today: Karma. Is a fucking bitch. I can't believe it's taken me this long to remember that. It, um.. kinda changes things... I guess? I feel completely different now, but I'm not able to pinpoint what I'm feeling. I got a punishment equal to or worse than the crime I committed. Which is.. precisely what I deserved I guess.
I think I just hit stage five...

I wouldn’t say that a cell phone is any more unnecessary than people who pay for landline phones at home. In fact they’re cheaper than landline phones. Of course the benefits greatly outweigh the fact that people can bug you. Of course there are some people that actually like people being able to contact them. You know, being socially connected and whatnot. Other functions of cell phones, such as texting are just retarded though. I’ll agree with you on that point.

If I’m in Chicago, living in the dorms, I’ve got a phone I can be reached at. If I’m at my mom’s, she’s got a phone I can be reached at, same thing if I’m at my dad’s. I don’t understand peoples’ argument when they say “I’d call you more if you got a cellphone!” No, no you wouldn’t. You have my number for my room phone / mom’s phone / dad’s phone and yet you never call me, why would me having a cellphone change that?
(Note: This is not directed at anyone in particular. Except maybe Alyssa. :razz: She tried to use that argument on me last Winter Break.)

Also, all of these phone services provided to me are currently free for me. If I had to get a cellphone, I’d be so broke.
