Unless you have a work situation where you need to be connected via email, IM, and check on websites, or blog heavily, then it seems more like a fashion/social accessory.
Duh, of course you should get an iPhone. There’s a sweet WordPress app for it. There’s this other app that makes you sound like T-Pain. You need these things in your life.
its a mutherfucking recession. what, might I ask, is fucking wrong with your head?
see, you gotta save your monies so you can spend your us american dollar monies on nostril sugar aka thats that shit! aka yep! aka yayo in the bay though!
stop it with the introspective shit. gimme the straight up dirt about the grimey asshole hipsters that are taking over everything using mommy and daddies monies.
I bet 95% of the iphone haters will have some sort of smartphone within 5 to 10 years. I’m pretty old so I have seen one technology after another arrive and there is always some contingent that rejects and hates it, but sooner or later they all hop on. Remember how many people made basically the same comments about having just a simple cell phone about 9 years ago? Well, all the hold outs gave up 5 years ago. Smartphones are highly useful and at some point they are going to be as culturally necessary as having at least a basic cell phone is now. So make your decision based off what you think would be useful not what all the posters on this website are telling you is cool or counter-cool (the same?). You just got to learn to draw boundaries with it if you don’t want it to take over your world (e.g. I don’t play video games or watch videos on mine).
Yes…but the iPhone sucks. It’s tethered to AT&T, which means no matter how sweet your phone is, it’ll be like carrying around a paperweight in all of the dead zones.
Sexpigeon commented tonight on how “Bustin’ Makes Me Feel Good” is a great post title. “Who you gonna call?” is too easy. You have to dig deeper to come up with “bustin’” and the whole post feels more right as a whole because of it. I also think referring to ghosts as “haunts” helps the overall delivery.
Point is: Blogging is nuanced, people. Think about that when you’re about to post that zinger to the author. Actually don’t… it keeps their shit in check.

iPhone doesn’t accommodate real ‘work situations’ .. But for a student or blogger, yeah sure why not – they do have a decent wordpress app.
But when it comes down to it.. Fuck iPhones. HTC all the way.
i like my droid.
The GBs rock. I’m glad we have them in the hood now.
Get a bike, dude.
yeah dude, fuck phones, bikes do basically the same thing and you can feel better about your age with them.
Come oooooooon, you guys! I gotta bike! An iPhone, I don’t got.
get an iphone. You know you want to.
Duh, of course you should get an iPhone. There’s a sweet WordPress app for it. There’s this other app that makes you sound like T-Pain. You need these things in your life.
Cell phones are for wusses.
Yeah, you’re so above them.
No, I’m just not a wuss.

Those are those mobile cell phone thingies right? Cell phones will never catch on. Damn early adopters and their portable calling devices.
