My twist is that they're schizophrenic, and it all makes sense then. The reason it's proabably still going to piss me off forever though is because I remember the days when cell phones first came out. I paid $500 at Weinstocks for a big old Motorola Bag Phone, and paid .25 cents a minute for service, $1something for roaming. The only people who could afford that were fancy pants folks who would look down thier nose at you while they proudly displayed thier snobby phones.....signed Old Man MalBad

If you're not on Malbadinlatin's side, you're with the terrorists.

The ones that annoy me are people with Bluetooth... they may be talking to you one moment, all of a sudden they don't seem to make sense and then they turn their head and you see the earpiece and they are actually talking to someone else.

On a side note, I wonder why we call them "mobile phones" here in the UK. It suggests that they can move around under their own power.

Cellphone is more correct since they are based on cellular radio technology.

Give me BACK smokers covering me with second hand smoke! I could always deal with that...but now there is a new, more disgusting habit permeating America...called rude & obnoxious cell phone users. Everywhere I go....bank, supermarket, elevators, stores, etc. there are guaranteed to be people on cell phones completely oblivious to anyone else around them....talking loud, screaming, using vulgarity, and generally worsening the quality of life in America.

There must be laws passed someday to protect people from this epidemic of rudeness and incivility. If not laws, then certainly stores & restaurants would be wise to advertise that they're cell-phone free. I think that'll be the next big thing. Who wants to go somewhere to relax or have fun, or just handle your daily chores of life with some foul-mouthed, loud, obnoxious idiot retard screaming into a phone behind you?

Our I.T. guy at the office, who's my buddy, told me recently he can get me a device that will disable all cell phones around me out to a good-sized perimeter for a few hundred bucks. I am so there, as soon as I sock away the scratch.
