You know I realized something the other day. I'm doing something wrong. And you want to know how I came to this realization? I was riding on the elevator and the Janitor has a better phone than I do. I have never had the "up to date" phone service. You have people running around with IPhones and whatnot and I'm rocking a phone that I literally HANDLE LIKE GLASS cause I have had it replaced 3 times because it is pretty much MADE LIKE GLASS.
Let me tell you about my replacements.
Time 1: I was carrying my ipod headphones in my pocket, and I pulled my phone out to see that the screen had apparently cracked. From my Ipod Headphones. Not really the most vicious of things Ipod headphones. Phone, you suck.
Time 2: Now this was a little embarrasing I must admit. My phone speaker apparently worked itself loose so it would make a buzzing noise when people talked, which made conversations annoying. But now here is the weird part. Apparently one of my ears can hear ultra high frequencies, and you guessed it, it is the ear I usually listen on my phone with. That's right, I had to go in to the Verizon store, and ask them to replace my phone because I could hear it making a noise that NO ONE ELSE COULD HEAR. But to their credit they did replace it, or more likely took it out back and slapped it around a bit.
Time 3: This time was more my fault, but I still hate the phone. I was at a cerimony set up for work where we were putting up balloon sculptures (that's right, I makes balloon sculptures at work. I am a veritable party machine) and was standing on the stage, backing up to take a broader look at the job when I walked off the stage. To my credit when I fell I actually managed a backward tumble and landed on my feet (GO ME!) but the cost was rolling over my phone and, you guessed it, cracking the screen AGAIN.
So now I am on phone 4, the same delightful Verizon Voyager as it is apparently grandfathered in so I don't have to pay for the super retarded manditory internet verizon is instigating on all phones now that gives you enough coverage to basically visit your email once a month. Uber lame. So I am continuing to handle it like glass.
But back to my point, I struggle, yes STRUGGLE with this phone, but a janitor walks around with an IPhone. Seriously?!? Are him and all his immigrant buddies on a family plan so they each pay like a dollar? I don't get it. I think it was how I was raised, to save a few dollars by getting the cheap option, but what they don't tell you, and yes my phone is a PERFECT EXAMPLE is that if you pay more, you don't end up replacing your phone THREE TIMES. Fail on my part.
Lets see, what other topics of interest. Oh yes, I did come up with this idea. I want to be a porn extra. Think about it. I want to be in as many porns as possible as like some background guy. I want to become the Where's Waldo of porn. Maybe some day people will make drinking games of me. Now THAT is a way to be immortalized. To have a drinking game named after you. Success!
Aside from that things are the usual. Work, stress, sleep, not enough candyfloss. The usual.

So, the issue I have with that condom holder is this: Is it really any different from the guy leaving one sock on during sex?
ReplyDeleteAlso, I too wonder about the janitor-with-iPhone thing. The woman who cleans the bathroom at my office has one too. I just can't imagine that she gets paid enough for that to be a go-to option for her.
Many products are placed to be affordable as a luxury item for certain income ranges. That janitor with an iphone is like you having a range rover. You *could* afford it and drive around in it, but it will cost you money that you should be saving or spending more sensibly. I do think quality is the way to go for all purchases, because any money spent on crap is a waste too.
