Not sure why, but I HATE "prolly"

tanorexia, on the other hand, is just fucking funny.

Probably because "prolly" is just fucking lazy.

Feature phone is a step below a smart phone, and a step above a basic no frills flip phone or bar phone. Many times it has either a touch screen or keyboard and a similar setup to most traditional smart phones with a dumbed down OS with limited features. There may be a portal with limited access to some online content and some basic applications. It seems to be more geared towards people do a lot of SMS/MMS and appreciate easier text input, but aren't looking for a full bore smart phone.
