Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
At least it wasn't an iPhone. By gods that'd scare me. It really would. I'd very nearly run away in denial I'd be so scared. Kids shouldn't be getting iPods, zoons, or anything technological until much later. Honestly. They should be going outside, or simply looking around for things to do! Dammit. Childrens' creativity and insight is going way downhill.

I think the thought is that it's so they can keep in contact with their parents when they're elsewhere - though I personally just think that's lazy parenting.
I only got my cell because I started driving and my parents wanted me to have something on me in case of emergencies. I hardly ever use the darn thing.
On a tangential note, I'm probably one of the last people in the world who don't have texting. I just don't see the draw of it.

Agreed: texting is lame. Especially when people do it while meandering through crowded public areas.
I don't have a cellphone at all, and my home phone is old-fashioned with a ring that actually physically rings a bell. Love that big, bright sound. No rotary though, alas.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
I don't text either, but for an entirely different reason. Why, if I have a cell phone, would I use it to send you text? If I wanted to send you text, I would use an e-mail or an IM or heck, in a pinch, I could send you a message on Facebook. :p
I think the whole "unlimited texting" thing is what draws people. When you have that on your plan, if you do, then it's basically a way to contact someone for absolutely nothing. No used up minutes of your plan or anything.
You want to know what really makes no sense though?
TEXTING WHILE YOU DRIVE A CAR!
D: Good God, people. We're supposed to be the intelligent lifeform on this planet. Though I guess, if you're texting while you drive, the "intelligent" part is already questionable...

I don't like texting either; it's a little cumbersome. My cell does have a camera though As for ring tone, I usually keep my cell on vibrate, meaning it doesn't matter.

People in forums who don't like texting? I'm a little surprised, actually. I like texting for the exact same reasons I like forums and e-mail.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
Not really, the real usefulness of texting is not for having a conversation, but rather to send a unidirectional message. For example if I want to tell my mother that I'll be home late I'll just send her a text. I just want to let her know about it, not discuss it. If she, on the other hand, does want to discuss it then she can call me.

After 9 straight hours of work, I'm done my answer outlines for tomorrow's exam. 3 essay questions, 3 pages single-spaced each. Closed book only, Final Destination. Only outlines, though, if detailed ones. Now not to forget them...

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
texting can, however, work when you're too out of breath to carry on a conversation and/or want to get a specific instruction out that doesn't need an immediate response.
...Also, Texting while naked is strangely liberating.

Re: Il'deav Ilah'naie's Indiscreet Intimacies on Indigo Iceboats Random Banter #135
Lucky. Mine has a metal exterior and I haven't found a cooling mat for it yet, so I'd just burn off my leg hair...
Hmm. I wonder if that'd work to help get rid of all of my leg hair....

I need two things.
1. A haircut.
2. A beard.
These problems may be connected...
