I hate Cell Phones

Maybe it's just me, but I hate the idea of being able to be tracked down and contacted at any moment.   Not to mention that I absolutely abhor texting and the people who have their damn thumbs glued to their keypads.     I realize that cellphones go along with societal progress and numerous other innovations that I'm quite fond of, but whatever happened to being completely off the grid and unreachable?  What do you guys think?

I agree i think if satan is real (and that's a big if) he created cell phones.
 
sure they have some good uses.
 
but really I hate it when you have a couple of dumb girls over with their stupid cell phones, and they are sitting in the same room texting each other and giggling... you know what they are texting about is you right, and they are laughing about you. Maybe i'm the only person in the world who sees this.

I couldn't live without one. I use it for bussiness e-mail. Contact via various social media. Easy to look up stuff on the go on the internet. Gaming when i'm waiting and bored. Reading news and god knows what else I do with that thing lol.

don't take offense. but i hate going any where seeing someone in a group of people yak it up on a phone instead of conversing with the group he/she is with. i'll often see groups of people that say they are hanging out but all to often they are all on cell phones with people who aren't there. no really hangs out any more.  cell phones are killers.

" @N7_Normandy: i don't even own a cellphone. i have a computer and a house phone. and if you want to contact me you can reach me through that. "

i love my mobile  
i couldnt go anywhere without it  

You do??? OMG! I can't live without my iphone!

I love cell phones, but I'm not nearly as dependent on them as some. I mean some people seem like if their phone broke they'd starve to death.

mine has games and pictures on it. =D.... i used to hate them, but it's helps with staying up to date on what's going on when you're out of the house. 

I hear you friend. I once went 2 years without a cellphone by choice. People act like doomsday is upon us when they lose theirs. One thing I hate about having one is that if someone calls/texts you and you don't answer right away, it's a huge deal. 

I hated them until I got one....lol now I don't feel right if I don't have it on me.

Ok I'm on house arrest. I cant have anybody over and I cant go anywhere. So what do you think I do. I sit on my phone texting my gf all day. Yea, she lives with me but she still has a life too. So I talk to her while she is gone all day. I talk to my skating buddy and my video game buddy here and there. O yea and I talk to my mom alot. My bro here and there. 
 
Other than that. I love my phone even when I was free. Did I hang out when I was free still even when I had a phone. Yes, I did.

 
Heres the thing though I have had 12 cell phones. I have had 5 in the past year. Why is this you ask cuz I recently was a horrible drunk which is why when I get off this thing I am not drinking anymore, but while I was drunk I could never get my phone to stop going off. So it would eventually get piss me of and I would either smash it or throw it out the car window when I was driving. Would I remember doing this the next day NO. I would be at the damn U.S. Cellular buying a new 1 everytime the next day. They basically knew my name there.  

I've spent more than 1000 of dollars on the phones I have had. Cuz I dont have insurance on them.

I use my cheap one  to only tell time.

yeaahhh it's possible to live without it . no big deal .

my cellphone is part of my daily life.. all my files are there, all my schedules and my most treasured photos and videos of the entire X-Men: TAS, Fantastic Four, Iron Man and Spider-Man Animated Series.. actually, i just bought a new one.. a Nokia N900.. very cool phone..

You can't blame phones for the way people use them.

I've shut mine off for now. Funny that when something happens everyone wants to talk to you, but when nothing special is going on people don't bother checking up on a person. Too little, too late.

My Cellphone Has never Been touched Since I First used it... I Prefer email or Actually Talking to someone face-to-face. 
 
Also - I Want to Destroy Everyone Who Texts one another When they are RIGHT IN FRONT OF EACH OTHER.

Used to think that........... until I got a cell phone.

I haven't used my cell phone since the early August.

Don't hate cellphones. I hate how people use them and what they've done to society because people are idiots.
 
I mean cellphones have bred an entirely new type of douchebag. That's quite a feat.

They can be annoying at times but I definitely don't need one for a social life, but I like having them for emergencies. I hear ya on anxiety...I've had panic attacks at times where your heart races(I hate that feeling) and you have to breathe slowly, take a xanax lol. Anxiety is a bitch

O_o Blasphemy! :P
