get off your iphone

August 3, 2008

my favorite part of this video is where the girl says what’s so funny honey? and the dude says back hold on… i’m not talking to you.

most people i know that have iphones continually fuck around with them despite their surroundings. at some point the etiquette was established that it is not cool to take a phone call when you are in the middle of having a conversation with someone (in person / real life) without saying hey, i am sorry but i have to grab this… where you would then walk to somewhere private to take your private call.

now it seems you can be talking with someone and if they are texting or fingering google maps it is totally fine. am i the only person that wants to smash everyones mobile devices?

everyone of my geek friends right now is saying: wake up idiot… mobile devices are the future. my response: maybe its time i get a dog. at least a dog will pay attention.

especially if i show it a picture of beef jerky on an iphone. bizarre.

freaks, mac

Dude, I’m with you. It’s so rude when you’re in a conversation with someone and they start texting. LAME!

I just got an iPhone a couple days ago and I have been on that thing CONSTANTLY! I’m sure my window of not pissing my friends off is closing. They understand that I just got it and love the shit out of it, but soon they’re gonna stop calling me and all the pictures I have saved for them when they call will be useless.

Oh well, at least my iPhone will never leave me.

it is interesting. tracy has one and she isn’t too bad about it – probably because she knows how much i loathe it.

the funny thing is that people who are hooked on them cannot imagine their life without it. i cannot allow myself to be one of those people. viva la revolution?
