My phone broke a while back. At first I was pissed. I didn't get around to replacing it for like a week. To be honest, it was one of the nicest relaxing weeks I have ever had. Since then, I cringe every time my cellphone rings lol

I'd go with food, dude. I have an iPod that substitutes as a phone. Never really use it as one though. I prefer face to face interaction. I use my iPod to access the net and shroomery more than anything.

A few years ago I would have laughed at you... But holy shit the technology addict I am now. I absolutely hate this stuff (computers included) and I cannot get away from it. I'm on reddit on the bus, shroomery in class, while people are talking to me, etc... Fuck this. This is more addicting than any drug i've personally encountered

That very example of multitasking, when one should have full attention is why we're seeing an uproar in "add" and "memory problems".

LOL this topic, eh I barely use my phone for anything other than talking on it and the occasional texts but thats it. I'm addicted to computers and have been since 1997. These mini computers (smart phones) I have no need for really, at least not yet. If you're constantly on the go though, smart phones are life savers!

I always poop and browse on the shroom in the mornings, It's like a ritual.


Also, you would not believe the number of people I see walking into intersections, head down and txting :facepalm: .... It's ridiculous

There was a long winded rant on this exact topic at the last UN meeting, it was held a month ago, but they said that it was suppose to started a month before that, so they didn't get around to it for awhile, but, once they did it was one of the most important topics that needed to be talked about. We all knew it was absolutely crucial to discover what all the hype associated with phones was about, and why we thought it was having a negative effect on the population. It became a big subject which overshadowed the topic on resources, which they then abandoned in favor for phones. They dismissed the notion that people needed phones in order to communicate, they felt that they should be able to do it face to face, to feel the beauty of social intercourse.

If you couldn't talk to anyone except through a phone you'd be pretty tightly locked into a problem you didn't think of before. You would have to think that it was going to be talked about in a manner which reduced the former habit of relying on phones to call, to change to something different. I know my friend is always on his phone, he never hangs it up, everytime I see him he has it to his ears saying something to someone. And right after he finishes talking with someone he would immmediately call another person, he has many people he needs to talk to. And for some reason he will sometimes before picking up the phone, look at the phone while its still closed, as if awaiting the instinctive response to open it to occur, but which occurs no less in a light which didn't replicate the formerly dedicated formula of thought to the appreciating of it being opened.

My phone is fortunately disconnected so I seldom make many calls, I have to go back to the store I first bought it from and renew it. I will eventually have to have it reconnected so I can call some people. I called someone earlier, but when I talked to him I realized I was speaking to the wrong person, that I accidentally got him mixed up with someone else, and that the entire time I talked to him I was unaware that I was talking to the wrong person, I thought he was the one I was talking to, but he wasn't it was someone else.

Then he said that he made the same mistake a month ago, he called the wrong person up and talked to him for an hour and they both hung up pretty perplexed. His brother also, incidentally, had the exact same thing happen earlier that morning. The funny thing is he told him about it 10 minutes before he first got on the phone with the guy, and so he was constantly thinking throughout the ordeal that he might be witnessing the same thing that happened to his brother. I think there are some good points to mention for phones, because imo I've always seen them as a useful tool to get in touch with people you otherwise wouldn't probably get around to seeing, and because you can contact someone from anywhere in the world its kind of a nice accessory to have about.

So instead of actually having to go out and meet people you can just call them on the phone and speak to them that way, its no wonder its so popular. Most people would rather speak behind a phone rather than meeting them in person, for some reason I have gotten that impression from most people, atleast the shy ones such as myself. I once went through a period in my life when I only used phones to contact people, I couldn't talk to them in person without wanting to leave and call them on the phnoe. I never could talk to someone for long without having an urge to call.

First off, I don't know a single person who would go without food for an entire day just so they could use their phone.



Secondly, everyone uses their phone differently and to different degrees- I use mine to PLAN hanging out with people in REAL LIFE and keep in touch with friends who live far away.

What is so unhealthy about that?  alarmist :rolleyes:

+1. Now a little abridging (I have to do this too, very mindfully... not pickin on ya bro :highfive:) and your readership will skyrocket.




I went over a month without a phone this summer. I don't see why people need them so bad... I had all my laptops with skype and my iPad with skype and 4g-LTE + iMessage. Anyone who thinks they NEED a phone is just addicted to technology :trollhide:

Don't mind him, OP. Take your time to get used to how best to get things across here. My advice: 1-2 threads about DXM per month, tops. Even then, they'll catch on :tinfoil:
