i'm expecting callius to come into this thread and be all like 'yeah it was coiled in my cock but i didn't notice because i have teams of nurses working in shifts to attend to my manhood'
I used to work as a bouncer, and I was holding someone down, and my phone fell out of my pocket, so the jerk I was holding down happened to have friends, and one of them decided it would be cool if he kicked my phone onto the road, and under a passing truck...
I recovered my SIM card with a pair of PLIERS and threw the remaining chewed husk of my phone into the trash.

One time I lost my phone in school and didn't ask anyone and then like three weeks later I told the girl next to me in my one class that I lost it, and she said, "Really? I found a phone under your chair so I gave it to the teacher." and sure enough, the teacher had it
they both were like "How did you go so long without it?" and I said, "Because it's a freakin phone, jeeze."

My roommate lost his at the hotel this past weekend. Called it the next morning, a very nice elderly Asian/Hispanic couple found it and returned it to us later that morning, and wouldn't accept the $20 "IF FOUND" reward he'd texted to it.
It turned out their son's phone had been stolen on a week or so before, so they knew how it felt.
Chances are the warranty on it's void though. If you ever need to send it in for repair don't bother. There's a sticker inside that changes color if it ever comes into contact with water.
I got a job at target last week, what sort of discount there do employees get
Whippy, set aside all the new Star Wars figures for me.
That's what all the Targets do: they sell the new Star Wars figures to their employees first. That's the only reason I can think of why I don't see any new figures until two months after they're out everywhere else.
Things about cell phones that need to stop:
1) Ignorance of the Silent Setting-- Either stop losing your phone or set it an audible setting. Ladies: God invented pockets for a reason. You should put things in them occasionally. You should also stop losing your handbags, which are bigger than cellphone and since you can't be trusted with, you probably shouldn't be setting your phone down at a social gathering. Dudes-- Use your pockets. Problem solved.
2) Abuse of the Vibrate Setting-- I should not be able to hear your vibrating cell phone from across the room. I have bad hearing and I can still pick it up. I don't know if you have a hollow leg or just like covering your phone in loose change, but this needs to end. Also: You are not excused from shame if you answer your cellphone during class. That sort of nullifies the whole vibrate setting in the first place.

I'll disagree with point number 2 as there's no real reasoning behind it. Look if you don't like hearing a cell phone vibrate, I don't see how you can tolerate simple ambient noise. You should remove your ears as a result.
Or maybe it stems from being assaulted with a vibrator as a child?
Seriously, what kind of an insane pet peeve is that Penguin?

It's because it sounds like and has the exact rythm of a ring. It defeats the entire purpose of the vibrate setting.
@ Whippy: Yes. Wifey is quite nice. Except that I'm tired of POV shots. That's right folks, I've come to a point in my life where pornography bores me.
Not because it's creepy or whatever, but I basically do not want to come to terms with how much pornography and pornography related material I have bouncing around in my head.

Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
i thought i had lost it
i don't know why it was in his bed because i slept on the couch
didn't hit it, i don't think
though it's a few feet from where it would have dropped so she might have sideswiped it
must have been horribly close to a smashed phone

Good feelings all around.
So the grass was long and the cell phone was on vibrate.
I ended up tossing my water bottle right next to it randomly one day and found it when I went for a drink.
Did it still work, or was it boned?
uh
yes
that is not interesting at all, whippy
I also dropped it out of a moving car and landed on it skateboarding and the like. The things a tank.

Newer models don't have that problem from the looks of it.

What exactly do you mean? My Blackberry was the latest model (Pearl) if that's what you are implying.
Also: YAY! Quote trees are back!

Just going by calls I used to take and BB's I had to report as "defective" in my old job.
6750s and 7750s were the ones with the most problems.
Wifey is a store manager, what job did you get? level I, II, or III?
If I remember right the discount is 10% or 15% depending on your region.
I'm going to guess 1
or 3
whichever is the lowest
I will be working at FOOD AVENUE
