Non-smart phone users? - Page 5

I think someone should market the "Dumb Phone".

"For when you just want phone that actually works...not a toy" would be a damn good tag line.

I bought a toy that happens to make phone calls on the rare occasion I can't take care of business online or by texting.

I don't like thinking (I've never been good at it) so having a device that does all my thinking for me is important.

A true "Smart" phone would know how to fetch me a beer

I was her karate instructor at one time - She knows how to defend herself

In hindsight, that was damn poor planning on my part

I'm at the opposite end of the spectrum. I use my phone for everything except calls. I hate phone calls with a passion. I don't even have a land line at home.

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.
