Okay, efff it... Here we go!!!!!
Did anyone notice it get colder on Sat afternoon? Hell froze over and I drank the koolaid over the weekend. My tried and true 8 year old flipper finally died on me and my 10 year old MP3 player's battery has been acting up. Can't justify buying a new MP3 player in this day and age which I've said many times to a few of you in person if not on here. So the time came... I already hate this phone and really think it's a complete waste of money so far. Evidence being... I buy this life changing device sat afternoon right. Get home, enter in my contacts, set it up. Have a friend toss a couple random apps on it. Etc... All up and going good. I head off to meet a friend at the bar. She's running about 30 minutes late so I'm sitting there at the bar by myself. I look around and every single person at the bar is sitting there staring at their phone. My new life changing OMG mind is so insanely blown device is sitting on the bar, dark screen, I'm chatting it up with the bar tender, who's kinda hot in a nerdy way, having a great time while watching hte college game on the TV. In the 30 minutes I had to kill, the thought or want to even pickup the stupid thing other then to check the couple texts that came thru never even crossed my mind.
So far, the only useful things I've found on this thing that my old phone didn't do is decent pictures since my old lens is about 8 years destroyed, I can text Jason in London, I uploaded one of those star chart things and well, once I get a SD card I can toss all my music on it. So far... Seems like a waste of money. I was hanging out with another friend last night and she was showing me all the apps on her phone she insisted I needed and I just kept laughing at her saying at what point during my life have I ever wanted that? At what point during my day am I so bored that I need that? Hell, now that I know that it exists and you have it on your phone, I kinda think less of you if you're life is really to the point that you waste time with these apps cause there's nothing better to do.
So... koolaid drinkers... What Apps must I need... Now that I have one, sell me on why I've needed this thing cause so far the biggest thing I've noticed is that texting on it sucks! I'm pretty sure there's no way I'll be able to get to the point I was on my old phone where like typing on a key board, I didn't need to look at what I was doing. I could text while keeping my eyes on the road with my old one. These new ones... No way...
BTW, don't tell me I need a JF.com app or forum viewing tappatalk crap or a facebook app cause if you think there's ever a moment when I'm out and about or not bored at work or home where I have a computer with a real sized monitor and have the urge to see what's on here or what's on facebook or any forum... Well I'll laugh at you...
Heck, now with the new texting system at DMV, even that excuse for a smart phone is gone. I may need to go sit at the airport for a few hours sometime to gain a full appreciation for this thing cause well, I'm just not seeing it.
