Why do I suddenly feel the urge to snuggle up in front of the fireplace?

Would someone who doesn't use the internet be a "win" too?

Got a regular flip phone from Verizon (work phone that I use as personal too)

Texting, which I don't do a lot of.
Camera, don't take a lot of pictures, a few for work here or there.
Phone and talking on it, I do quite a bit of.

I don't care about Facebook updates, the news, what Lawrence O'Donnel or Glenn Beck is a raving about, watching Judge Judy, or the latest movie trailer. It will be around when I get home and watch it.

I'll admit that a smart phone would be nice to use for both personal and work usage, here and there, but typically in my case it can wait.

To me, a phone call is nothing but an interruption. If my phone rings, the person on the other end had better be fucking dying, or I don't want to hear what they have to say.

When my phone rings, I'm almost always in the middle of something else. Stopping what I'm doing to answer their stupid phone call just pisses me off.

Email and texts, I can read at my leisure, when it's convenient for me.

Amen Brother. I cringe when my phone rings, debate on whether or not I want to answer it, as everyone who calls always wants to talk about NOTHING for EVER.

I friggin hate talking on the phone. I love texting. Quick, easy, doesnt require a bunch of crap like "hey, how are you?" I'm good, you?" "oh great, glad to hear that, hows the kids?" blah blah blah. We know texting and the internet are killing social skills. Some of us still have them when needed, we just dont have time for nonsense BS.

I love my smart phone. I always have access to the internet, google maps and whatever else I need to find my way, find business or addresses, answer a question before I forget it as I too suffer from CRS (like this weekend J and I were discussing which egyptian god was the falcon headed one, and voila, just break out the phone and google it ). You know, things you MUST have/know, right now.
